Notes
- I^ : Lebanon was suspended from the Eurovision Song Contest in 2005, after refusing to air the Israeli entry. The suspension ends after the 2008 Contest, which means that Lebanon may take part in 2009, but it would require Lebanon to broadcast the Israeli entry. See also Lebanon in the Eurovision Song Contest.
