The world’s eyes are on Lionel Messi, as Argentina will face Spain in the World Cup Final. The diminutive superstar has gained a massive following across the planet, not least in Israel, thanks to his numerous business and security connections with the Apartheid State. From being the face of an Israeli A.I. company led and run by Israeli spies, entrusting his private security to a team of Israel secret agents, I explore the reasons why Benjamin Netanyahu considers him to be his favorite football player.

No worries, I understand! I've had really mixed feelings about it since I started to dig into this.

That's a really good point that European countries are only socially progressive because of all the wealth they stole and continue to steal from their colonies and other parts of the global South. I'll think about Argentina some more, but I would need to really think a different way to come around on this. I do support any country that has been exploited by the powerful regardless of ethnic composition, so maybe I'll take that angle.
