RTE don't broadcast the Eurovision if Israel performing

RTE must not broadcast the Eurovision if Israel is allowed to perform in it. The Israel government is committing genocide in Gaza. Broadcasting the Eurovision with Israel in normalises what they're doing on a global stage.
Why is this important?
The Israeli government are massacring the people of Gaza and make the place completely unliveable. By normalising Israelis participation in global events like the Eurovision - that states its values are democracy, solidarity and unity is deeply cynical and amounts to art washing.
People who work in RTE are demanding that RTE's Director General agrees not to broadcast the Eurovision. A massive public outcry will send a powerful message that people in Ireland are behind them and are not standing by.
