1. Sport got NOTHING 2 do with XENOPHOBIA, this is an issue of
Big Mouth ,   On the face   (02.11.13)
Education at home.
2. Admirable stand by fans, officials and police.
Michael ,   California, USA   (02.11.13)
The die-hard racism must be eliminated. We need to applaud that something is being done. But the question is: why is it so hard to eliminate racism? With all the sociologists, psychologists and anthropologists in Israel, can they not find the root cause and take REAL long-term action? Why do I know what they need to do? Hint: start at the gan with the children and send parents to mandatory classes on racism prevention.
3. Hatred
Tom ,   Toronto   (02.11.13)
Hatred be-gets hatred . These people should be ashamed .
4. The problem is with soccer
Yossef   (02.11.13)
It seems that wherever you are soccer fans are racist and neo-fascist. I think it comes from this sport, intrinsically. Soccer is a fascist sport. Rugby is much more fun: small, fat, big, every one has his place in rugby. A rugby match is a fest not a war, and finish by drinking beer everybody together... Ban soccer!
5. Ban Soccer
Joe Bliksem ,   Raanana Israel   (02.11.13)
If I were the PM I would ban soccer today and make Rugby compulsory in all schools.Rugby teaches values and respect to all. Soccer is a game for prima donnas and cry babies.
6. Well done for Beitar...!
Cohen,Israel   (02.12.13)
You are becoming from a symbol of racism to a symbol of tolerance and fighting racism. I never thought I will say this but - WELL DONE BEITAR...!!!
7. Football fans
Nice Bloke ,   Rochdale, UK   (02.13.13)
What is it about football that it attracts the biggest morons going. It's an international phenomenon as well.
8. Ban Fans
Gershon ,   Canada   (06.11.13)
Identify the racist filth and ban them from all of the stadiums just like they do with trouble makers in the UK football matches and the world cup.
