    They have a sizeable group of supporters in lots of European countries that will vote on them and no one else no matter what. There's also a large group that will not vote on them no matter what, but that group splits the vote between all the other contestants. So in general, Israel benefits from the polarisation.

    The Israeli government also invests in marketing to encourage its citizens to vote in Eurovision.
