How come Israel keeps getting 12 points from us in the Eurovision public vote? (feddit.uk)

I mean, there's obviously something going on. Public sentiment towards Ukraine is still strong and you still see yellow and blue flags flying but sympathy for Israel was never as strong and it's since massively died off given how they've reacted. The vote is clearly not a reflection of genuine public opinion. But what's going on, are certain people just voting loads of times?

I think people who support Israel really really support Israel. UK in general has lost interest in Eurovision as everyone hates UK. So fewer voters with one agenda voted a lot vs a few pensioners splitting their vote between macciato and those handsome country men with guitars.

The UK performed were robbed this year. 0 televote points? Not warranted.
