that's the right action to take. if i learn that my country's finalist did anything subversive to expose israel and the genocide of palestinians, since they didn't withdraw from the contest as others did, i will be very glad. until then i feel ashamed of every participant really -

as for the participants, i think the countries who are absent deserve our respect, as well as those who spoke out, even in retrospect. like the person who won the contest a couple years ago and returned their prize as a protest. -
