They would be if Israel had some restraint but they decided to do a full blown ethnic cleansing which at some point becomes hard to overlook. The one and only time I watched Eurovision it was held in Tel Aviv and I remember that there was only one instance of protestation against them where a participant band displayed an anti-Israel banner. Apart from that people didn't mind much.
That said Israel hosting Eurovision was a huge flop for them, they only got a fraction of the tourists they thought they would get, there were extensive pro-Palestine campaigns to discourage people attending, though how much was that versus Europeans just not wanting to go the Middle East no matter how hard Israel tried to convince them.
