A question, if they do decide to withdraw (or not turned up during their scheduled performances), I presume the broadcasters will be censured and fined? Because I just want to know what will the repercussion be for these countries and how likely they will do this.

Tell it to your politicians. If there are no sanctions on the political level, and the internal EBU rules haven’t been breached, then any country should be allowed to participate.

The internal EBU rules are the problem. That's why they should be changed. After this overdue rule change has been implemented, those that don't break the rules should be invited to participate.

Possibly, but this is trivially solved by going on stage, performing a shitshow in protest, saying some choice words and then crowdfund the fine you get, I mean it's not like you can realistically force people against their will to a significant degree.

Hope the EBU are proud of themselves, they switched to the dark side and backed Israel and now its all blowing up in their faces...they deserve this mess they've got themselves in and while as an ESC fan I'm furious, gutted (every bad word you can think of under the sun) from non esc fans perspective I am so satisfied that this has all blown up in their faces.

Why do people always throw everything together though?
The biggest disturbance of the contest - the Joost Klein thing - has nothing to do with Israel...
Not even Israeli delegation members allegedly misbehaving has anything to do with THE Israel thing directly.
