Arab countries have tried to ban or isolate Israeli Tennis Players but were told there is no room for racism or anti-semitism in sports! Threats of fines or suspension allowed all countries to compete. Hamas which rules Gaza is designated as a Terrorist entity and should have no place in Free World Sports!

who have their brains in their feet, like Obama. Jews who generally have it in their heads, should go study.

Amnesty International released today a report blaming Hamas in Gaza in thousands of war crimes during the Gaza war. For Israel, the Gaza strip is enemy territory ruled by war criminals and terrorists. The Israel-Gaza border should be sealed. If Gazans want to get out, let them get out from the Egypt-Gaza border crossing. EU anti-semites will find reasons to try punish Israel whatever Israel will do. Therefore Israel should not compromise. Show the EU the finger.

Israel has always been in football. Now that we won't be able to compete, we could claim that we could have won the world cup hadn't it been for FIFA's antisemitism.

Egypt controls the OTHER entrance into Gaza, right? Why just ban the Jews? Oh, wait. Forget I said that.

to see who would back this.I wouldn't back down--let the nations vote.The more the Pals play hardball the tougher it will be on them.Personally I don't really believe they want a state--it would be a failed one anyway--they just want to make noise and draw the sympathy of the world.

To think he was once a good soccer player. Now he's on the Palestinian dole and gives Palestinians the green light to launch rocket attacks against Israel from soccer fields. Soccer is his anti-Israel weapon and no longer a serious sport. He sold out to be a lap dog for the Palestinians.

How much Abbas invested in European or world football to use that for his political tools? Pathetic old man has passed sell by date without achieving it's peace with G-d of Israel. Peaceful people shall inherit the land and Abbas old isolating ideas make him non peace seeker. And Abbas can't see the face of G-d because that's only for peace makers. So darkness shall be upon Abbas Palestinians and whatever he represents. Just leave football alone.

Ahhh . . . could you run that past me again ? RKDH
