It has literally nothing to do with the point made in this thread but I can accept that it's my own fault for distracting from my own point by pointedly mentioning the Eurovision threads. Mea culpa. The only relevant point (which, despite some difference in opinion on the reason for this, we appear to agree on?) is that the Eurovision vote does not reflect international attitudes towards the government of Israel and that international support for Israel at both a population and official level is objectively less now than it was on Oct 6th 2023.
