      I'd say the artist doesn't deserve any blame because of what the country does but she's literally in an IDF military band. Also Armenia and Cyprus aren't geographically European but culturally yea so you can kinda justify these and israel. They should add palestine if they're gonna have israel but they're not that cool

        geographically European

        Europe isn't even a distinct continent, we're sitting on the same continental plate as the rest of Eurasia, and that plate reaches from Portugal all the way to Japan. Viewing the Bosporus and the Urals as borders has always been a cultural convention, not a material fact.

        Europe isn't real, it can't hurt you.

        Cyprus is generally considered to be geographically part of Europe. It's all a matter of definition anyways.

      IIRC entry to the contest is based on whether you use a certain broadcasting platform or w/e based in Europe, so I think North African countries have competed before.
