EURO is an international football (soccer) tournament in which European countries participate. Technically, the eligibility for participation depends on whether a country is part of the European football confedaration or not. The European confederation is called UEFA.

Somehow Israel is participating in this tournament. Israel also participates in Eurovision (along with other guests like Australia). Seems like the criteria for being European is whiteness lmao.

Also Russia has been banned from participating in EURO 2024.

The last one that I watched (not the last one that was held) took place in Tel Aviv and it felt more like a tourism advertisement rather than a song contest.

Heard Israel in general has a culture of rudeness and Tel Aviv especially is filled with some of the most rude, inhospitable locals of any major city out there. They make Parisians look like saints
