So look, on a lot of levels I might agree with you that protesting Israel's participation in Eurovision is futile at best, and maybe even counterproductive within that limited context, too. But it bears noting that the protests in Malmö are only "about" Eurovision in the sense that UK protests in 2012 were "about" the Olympics. There are a lot of other issues in play, not least of which is the militarisation of the city, and the long-haul persecution of minorities by the cops and the city.
