Tel Aviv ian Isreali club not an Jewish club. Many of their fans are non religious . I supported Levien and and Kaplan when Swansea was owned by Jewish people. EUFA ars giving Isreali clubs privileges they do not deserve. . |  |

Isreal is committing genocide according to the United Nations. If Kazakhstan or Azerbaijan were doing this I would also promoted their removal from EUFA. I am not arguing for their "rights" to be removed. I am promoting their "privileges" being removed. They are not European. Isreal are in EUFA for political reasons. [Post edited 9 Nov 15:38]

Birmingham a city with a lot of Muslims did not see a lot of trouble last week. Birmingham saw Isreali fans being perfectly safe. Birmingham rightly banned their fans. This was promoted as discrimination. Birmingham also cancelled the St Patricks day event in March for security reasons. I posted about it. [Post edited 9 Nov 15:52]

Exhibit A is Turkey, it has killed 100,000s of Kurds and the oppression goes on. I don't see any of our marvellously enlightened political activists calling for a ban on Turkish football. When there are over 110 armed conflicts in the World and when people go and on about one of them it's pretty obvious what's going on. Over 6 million have died in the ongoing conflict in Congo. According to Google AI The Guardian last published anything in February 2025 on Congo, but has published over 10,000 articles on Gaza in 2025 anybody feel manipulated by the media?

If the united nations believe that Israel is committing genocide they haven’t applied the actual definition of genocide to this current situation. Just their belief that it is happening based on unverified reports. Thats one angle. The fact Palestinians are still dying does nothing to console anyone. There has to be a free Palestine and it’s nothing to do with Tel Aviv kicking a ball or their top scorer whoever he is. The issue for some is they don’t see the sunshine through the clouds because they are being blinded by whatever theme they choose to follow in this particular instance. Personally I belief in humanity and freedom, and i couldn’t care what sides some middle class British person thinks about this or any other conflict. Humanity comes first. Aligning yourself with any ideology displays weakness in my opinion, it shows a lack of understanding of any person suffering as a result of conflict. It also shows them as weak and needing to follow one side or another meaning they have no personal leadership or judgement in any given situation. I tried to indicate this on a what’s app group i no longer participate in, one saw it as a negative, another right thicko believed it to be racist because I prefer to put people of any denomination first. Their debate was lost and their opinion for me was invalid based on their belief that the left wing in the UK should supoort Palestine. People who have never fought in any conflict or experienced first hand people dying, and all this from the safety of their comfortable homes far away from the real issues of any conflict are the problem. They pretty much follow a certain party line whilst blindly refusing to see the wider picture. This can be disguising their anti semetic or extreme far right or left leanings. These people don’t deserve a voice whilst supporting any side that kills men, women and children without a thought. For me this isn’t a football issue and shouldn’t be on this board. I think that draws it to a close. |  |
