Perfect recipe
Russia being effectively thrown out of UEFA while Israel is allowed to participate is the clearest example of their bullshit I can think of, just infuriating. I will be livid if Israel make it to the main tournament
Also Russia has been banned from participating in EURO 2024.
That really says it all
IIRC Israel and Israeli teams could also compete in AFCON and CAF (African equivalents of Euro's and Champions League) but they'd have to face Arab countries and you can guess how that would go. Imagine Beitar Jerusalem fans having to go on an awayday to Raja Casablanca lol. People would die.
Edit: my bad, it's in the Asia Cup actually. But still, Israel vs Iran would not be the most friendly fixture.
You're confusing the fact that Isr*el was an observer state in the African union but got suspended because the "the AU is being taken hostage by a small number of extremist states like Algeria and South Africa, which are driven by hatred and controlled by Iran” - Sharon Bar-li
The IMF handles South Africa with its European division too. At least when Budhoo wrote his resignation.
Luckily Romania beat them yesterday
Eurovision is in may, that would be some shit
The last one that I watched (not the last one that was held) took place in Tel Aviv and it felt more like a tourism advertisement rather than a song contest.
Heard Israel in general has a culture of rudeness and Tel Aviv especially is filled with some of the most rude, inhospitable locals of any major city out there. They make Parisians look like saints
Thankfully they're not doing well. I haven't watched any of their matches but I hope there's at least a few people in the crowd who are booing them and waving Palestinian flags, although I wouldn't be surprised if such actions are penalised.
UEFA is brimming with the worst kinds of bastards. It is almost certainly gonna be penalised especially considering Russia getting banned for the "unprovoked invasion" of Ukraine.
Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.
A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities
