I could just imagine your further outrage if a British act pulled out of Eurovision for Palestinians.
I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have been any way complimentary.

You'd be firing anti-Semitism at him probably too then.

Even the far left Daily Mirror are saying it was career suicide by ALexander

"While Alexander may not admit it publicly, at least not for a while, signing up to
be the UK entry for this year's Eurovision Song Contest has been a disastrous
career move that could haunt him for years."

"Olly Alexander went from advocating for Palestine to claiming he 'wasn't
qualified to speak out' within a matter of weeks"

"In Olly Alexander's Road to Eurovision '24, the It's A Sin actor sobbed as he
addressed the calls for him to boycott this year's contest over Israel's
inclusion, saying he "wasn't qualified to speak on" the heartbreaking scenes
coming out of Palestine, referring to it as an "incredibly complicated political
situation."

Yet in October, before being unveiled as the UK entry for Eurovision two
months later, Alexander called for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, the
governing body in Gaza. An open letter from LGBT charity Voices4London
signed by Alexander referred to Israel as an 'apartheid regime' aiming to
"ethnically cleanse" Palestine."

"By insisting that he knows better than Palestinians, Olly Alexander again flaunts a colonial mentality," Queers For Palestine said in a statement regarding Alexander's response to their boycott plea"

(so by your logic they are homophobic too - this will be news for them)
