A reporter asked Israel if they think theyre putting other contestants and the audience at risk by being part of the show and the host told them "You dont have to answer" and Joost said "Why not?" Also he later was asked about his song and if he thinks it will unite all the countries and he replied saying "Maybe you should talk to EBU about uniting countries" (or something like that)

disqualifying him over this?

I dont think it was over that tbh, he would not be at the flag parade in the rehearsal if he was disqualified

I don't think this is true. The official statement from EBU references the press conference nothing else.

The source appears to be a random tweet on twitter 

Starting with "it's been confirmed"

Israeli press threatened and filmed a spanish reporter and other spanish members from our delegation after the reporter screamed Free Palestine right after Israel's performance.

They did the same to Joost a few days back.

Ugh this is false. Stop spreading fake news. 

[Dennis 8,391]

Ironically, for those who started that rumor, the only thing "that's been confirmed", is actually the BDS movement distastefully using his dead father:

The open letter to Klein refers to lyrics from his Song Contest song. He quotes his father's "utopian words" in "Europapa": "It is a world without borders. But "your father's utopia does not exist for Palestinians," reads the message from those calling for a boycott.

"Too bad they are using my father, but it is what it is," said Klein, who also manages to put the letter into perspective. "Tall trees or something," he refers to the saying "tall trees catch a lot of wind.
