It’s because it normalises them. A huge part of their identity and the way the ethnic cleansing, apartheid, and genocide is sold or justified in the west is through this idea that pissrael is a “civilized” western nation. And a big part of that is them joining in fun stuff with other “civilized” western nations.
Pissrael is able to do what they do because their electorate largely believes that what they’re doing is the right thing, even now. There are plenty of polls to show this (aside from actual election results of course). Dispelling pissraelis of this notion plays an important role in ending the apartheid. And we have a historical example of ending apartheid this way. The exclusion from rugby games and cultural events were a consistent generator of “are we the baddies” moments for white South Africans when they had their apartheid. Avoiding those kinds of moments is very important to pissrael.

Anyway that’s how I see it.
