In case someone wasn’t sure of her government’s devotion to the Palestinian cause, Wallstrom also spoke about mobilizing friends of Palestine and stated:

"Wallstrom is as full of contradictory statements as she is full of Palestinian propaganda. First she talks about recognizing the maps she has seen on her trips in the Palestinian territories, maps that she knows have erased Israel and replaced it with a Palestinian one-state solution. Then she talks about fighting for a two-state solution."


This is a contradiction. Wallstrom talks like a Palestinian activist. Which country does she represent if she will fight with and for the Palestinian Arabs? It surely is not Sweden.

Sweden’s prime minister Stefan Lofven must fire Wallstrom. She may be suitable as a pro-Palestinian activist on board Ship to Gaza or as a speaker at a Palestinian art exhibition. However she is not suitable to rule our foreign ministry.

[ Israeli citizens, in the Knesset, trying to destroy Israel ]

The Knesset Presidium on Monday made an unprecedented decision to disqualify a bill proposed by Joint Arab List MKs Jamal Zahalka, Hanin Zoabi, and Joumah Azbarga.

The three had submitted a proposal to legislate "Basic Law: A country of all its citizens" which would effectively negate Israel's existence as the Jewish People's nation state.

Fatah published a poster to shame the team into not coming:



As far as I know, the team was not planning any trips over the Green Line. Teddy Stadium is within the part of Jerusalem that Israel controlled before 1967 that Palestinians usually pretend in English to have no claim over.

This poster betrays the real opinions of the Palestinian ruling party - the "moderates" who supposedly are willing to compromise. To them, there is no Israel, and everything is
"occupied."

They are even willing to say this in English.

Mallory went on to praise her Women’s March co-chair Linda Sarsour's activism for Palastinians, saying she had learned a lot from Sarsour.

Sarsour also spoke at the event and said apartheid is happening in "Palestine," funded by U.S. taxpayers' money.

"So don’t tell me about North Korea – because, guess what – I don’t fund North Korea’s human rights violations," Sarsour said.

Mallory has previously come under fire for attending anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan's annual Saviors' Day address, where he proclaimed, "When you want something in this world, the Jew holds the door."

Her attendance there prompted the Planned Parenthood chapter serving the Northwest United States and Hawaii to part ways with Mallory.

The threats and provocations against Lionel Messi, which logically raised fears against holding the game, are not foreign to the daily lives of the Israeli population, whose athletes have often been the target of violence and terror attacks," the embassy said in a series of tweets.
-----
Culture and Sports Minister Miri Regev (Likud) later said a statement that terror groups had threatened the Argentinian team’s players and their families with explicit threats. Among other things, the players were sent videos and pictures of children's bodies.

Israel to file complaint with FIFA against PA

Norway gives “green light” to boycotts of Israel’s settlements

Municipalities which boycott Israel’s illegal settlements do not violate Norway’s international obligations, a foreign ministry official has insisted, dealing a blow to right-wing parties that tried to have two such municipal boycotts rescinded.

Audun Halvorsen, state secretary at the foreign ministry, said early May that a boycott of “goods and services produced in settlements does not contradict Norway’s international commitments.”

His comments came after three right-wing parties had appealed boycotts in Trondheim and Tromsø.

Three local right-wing opposition parties filed a complaint with the Tromsø county governor’s office, requesting a ruling on the resolution’s legality. In addition, the World Jewish Congress urged the Norwegian government to oppose Trondheim’s settlement boycott.

But the attempts to block the local settlement boycotts have failed with Halvorsen’s comments to Tromsø county that such boycotts did not contradict international trade law.

Indeed, international jurists, Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International have been clear that governments which facilitate or engage in any trade in or with the settlements do not fulfill their human rights obligations.

An op-ed writer, Gabriel Chocron, was more explicit:
A political leader thirsty for publicity managed to turn this sports party into a victory for fear, threats and terrorism. Jibril Rajoub, current president of the Palestinian Football Federation, unscrupulously threatened Argentine players - and Lionel Messi in particular - that they would become enemies of Muslims around the world for participating in the friendly against Israel. Rajoub drove a sad campaign of intimidation and threats to the players and their families, to the point that they felt fear for their physical integrity.

Chocron ends off with:
Beyond the opinion that each one may have in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the cancellation of this party is a victory for hatred, fear and terrorism. The World Cup has not started yet, but the Argentine national team has already lost its first points.

As I was looking at articles in Argentina about the soccer controversy, I came across a pithy anecdote mentioned by a writer for La Nacion, Andrés Malamud:

"The problem in the Middle East is that Israel is a racist state." With the theater full, the phrase is received without ovations or whistles. After all, Portugal is "a country of gentle customs". Here they never shout much, neither in favor nor against. Ilan Pappé, an Israeli historian who is self-exiled in England for being a critic of his country, finishes the speech and begins the round of questions. I raise my hand before anyone else and inquire if there is any state in the Middle East that is not racist. His response deafened an audience that was already silent: "that's not the problem".

The problem is not racism. The problem is Israel. It is understood.
