How does Israel take part in EUROVision anyway?

Lots of countries not in Europe are eligible, such as Canada.

The requirement is basically only for a nation's public broadcaster (like the BBC, CBC, RTE) to be an Associate Member of the a European Broadcasting Union, which largely comes down to paying an annual fee.

Should the EBU restrict the contest regionally? Maybe, but they haven't so far.

Australia has sent acts for the last several years, and they've been a great addition.

Of course region locking is not an issue, a country with fascist regime is.
