"An insult to the soccer kids of Gaza"
A blog about Robbie Keane, from July 2023.
At least eight children from the Al-Hillal academy have been murdered by #Israel since then.

The President of Palestine's football association has been banned from attending the World Cup.
He refused to shake hands with Israel's rep 6 weeks ago when Infantino tried to force him, instead shouting out "We are suffering"
Now the racist genocide supporters have banned him

I’m a Palestinian football journalist who was in contact with the Palestinian Football Association during the genocide and has covered most of the sporting tragedy in Gaza, including the mass murder of athletes & mass destruction of the sports scene.
There’s an obvious misunderstanding of the geopolitical events happening worldwide within the PFA and pressure from the very notorious Palestinian Authority on them.
This is definitely not the position of Palestinians. The Palestinians’ position is clear: Ban the game against Israel.
The Palestinian Football Association has thanked the FAI following the decision to fulfil Ireland’s upcoming UEFA Nations League fixtures against Israel.
In a statement released by the FAI, the Palestinian Football Association said:
“The Palestinian Football Association expresses its appreciation for the principled positions taken by the Football Association of Ireland in support of the rights of the Palestinian people and Palestinian athletes. The Palestinian Football Association also affirms its respect for the decision made by the Football Association of Ireland within the framework of its sporting and international obligations.”
The statement comes after the FAI confirmed that Ireland’s Nations League fixture against Israel on October 4th will be played at a neutral venue behind closed doors following approval from UEFA.

The worlds richest man does not like the Lord Mayor of Belfast.
He is so smart he knows more about Ireland than people here.
So smart.

Horrible week for @GalwayUnitedFC
Spineless to take a stance about the #Israel game, even though a kid from #Gaza who visited EDP in 2016 was murdered by #Israel
Then forcing ST holders to go 200kms to Cork to see them lose a "home" game. Most never even got to see it.

Police violently attacked protestors outside Woolwich Crown Court, after draconian terrorism sentences were handed down for the Filton 4.
The four were sentenced as terrorists, after a jury convicted them of criminal damage for destroying Israeli killer drones.

"urging Ireland not to move forward ... "
#OccupiedTerritoriesBill
Jun 9
In October, I led a bipartisan letter urging Ireland not to move forward with its Occupied Territories Bill, an anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) measure. I was encouraged when the bill was shelved. Surprisingly, it's now scheduled to be debated this week.
Let's be clear about what this bill is: a one-sided measure that singles out Israel while ignoring territorial disputes everywhere else in the world. And, it could come with a real cost. U.S. companies in Ireland could be forced to choose between complying with Irish law and complying with anti-boycott laws in thirty-eight American states.
I continue to stand with my colleagues in urging them to withdraw the bill.

The fact that your country murdered all of these child footballers in #Gaza does not change Irish fans' opposition to this game.
Wherever it is played.
#Israel should be banned.
See you have been warned.

@Sport4Palestine
The fact that the match will not be played in Dublin does not change our ambition to win. @IrelandFootball @IrishFA See you have been warned.

I have heard some cringeworthy takes on my homeland this week, but this is different level. Staunchly Unionist East Belfast wants Ireland back... apparently. 👀

All of these child footballers were murdered by #Israel since October 2023.
51 of 54 clubs in #Gaza wiped out.
The game should not go ahead anywhere. @UEFAcom should not be placing the @FAIreland in this position.
If #Russia are banned, why not #Israel?

Ireland v Israel on October 4 moved to a neutral venue overseas behind closed doors
FAI statement includes communication and words from Palestinian FA as part of justification for playing fixtures
This is a statement that would have landed better in February

“These boys used a stone and they hit me on the head on my way back from work all dressed in my nursing uniform.
“What was the response when I shared my story online? It was ‘Ireland is tired of immigrants, you should go back home.’ Nobody cares what you do, even though they know I’m a nurse. There is no safety for us, that is the truth."
A Nigerian nurse who has worked in Belfast for five years has said the latest scenes of racist violence has made her want to leave Northern Ireland.
