1. 'You were Daniel's hero'...Messi and Qatar

Brilliant post from Liran Cohen. Money can indeed buy anything, and it's time more people stood up to say that Leo Messi, Xavi, Andres Iniesta etc, have way more in common with Khaled Meshaal and Mohammed Deif than they do with any Jew who supports FC Barcelona, as I did until the 3 kids were butchered. Jews worldwide should be boycotting anything owned by Qatar Inc, and doing it loudly.

Lift the blockade? Open border crossings? Why? So that Hamas can continue to import weapons to use against Israelis and enter Israel freely in order to commit suicide bombings? Why doesn't Hamas fire missiles into Egypt? Egypt has a border with Gaza, too, you know. Can it be because they know that Egypt would respond by killing every man, woman, child and stray dog in Gaza in response? You have no idea just how restrained Israel's response has been. Israel understands that Hamas terrorists hide behind civilians. But the missile fire must stop, and Israel has to take out the missile launchers and destroy the missile stores. Be grateful Israel has not responded the way Egypt would. I assure you that it isn't because we lack the capacity.
3. The odds of Messi responding ...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.23.14)
... are between slim and none. This self-styled, self-important alleged goodwill ambassador for UNICEF doesn't have the stones to disobey his Qatari masters. Poor excuse for a hero, I must say.

5. True Heros

Are we sure these kind of pepole should be our children's heros? These are lowlifes big time.
6. Money can't buy everything

Some things can only be bought with blood, like West Bank settlements that prevent a peaceful resolution of the conflict and thus make bloodshed inevitable.
7. FC Barcelona should be pressured to drop Qatar Airways
Scott ,   Ramat Gan   (08.24.14)
I always thought it was odd that European football clubs would have the emirates as sponsors. Most of the Gulf emirates like Qatar & UAE have little or no history of football & few people there play the sport at all. There needs to be more pressure internationally for Qatar to be called what it is - a sponsor of terrorism & for it to be isolated. Pressuring Barcelona to drop Qatar Airways would be a good start & hopefully FIFA will drop them as a World Cup host.
