@thindubliner@McDonnellDan He accepted call up as they had games against Kosovo and Austria. Players didn't formally address israel game until Friday, when he first raised his objections. You're clueless.
@AK89ii@AdamLynch27 The whole point is not to give them a platform. It interferes with their sports washing. Giving them a hiding, changes nothing. Refusing to play makes a huge statement. Yes, we will have consequences, but that is the price of being the first.
This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).
Insane framing.
He was anally gang-raped.
He was severely beaten and then anally gang-raped on camera. Both a knife and a taser were reportedly used.
There was a hole in his rectal wall. He got surgery for it.
Because he was anally gang-raped by the IDF (on camera).
He also had 7 broken ribs and other injuries as well.
After it happened, Israelis staged multiple large protests in the streets. Not because they believe these soldiers did anything wrong, but because they were infuriated that the soldiers were arrested for anally gang-raping a Palestinian on camera.
These protests weren’t just random people. They included multiple high ranking Knesset members (their Congress) who defended the anal gang/rapists.
They didn’t stop there. They went after the lawyer who leaked the video. She was publicly smeared, was forced to resign, and was arrested.
And now the anal gang-rapists who were caught on camera have had their charges dropped. They didn’t win in court. They weren’t somehow exonerated. The charges were completely and indefensibly dropped. The Jerusalem Post reports that there was sufficient evidence to take this to trial.
This is part of a larger pattern of torture and impunity. NYT and many other major outlets have extensively detailed the abuses at the Sde Teiman torture factory. NYT reported that Prisoners lose 30+ pounds, a nurse was anally raped by a metal rod, another man was raped by a dog, and another was anally raped by a fiery hit rod until he died. Yes, the NYT reported all of that. I’ll share sources in the replies. Torture and sexual assault are commonplace at Sde Teiman, and many prisoners die in the process.
The UN concluded that rape from IDF soldiers is so commonplace that it constitutes official “strategy of war”.
And of course these monsters virtually never face jail time. Because Israelis by and large don’t have any problem with any of it.
This is just what their society does.
They torture Palestinians.
They tried to fine the fans, so the fans built an academy. 🏟️
Now, the mission continues with Gaza Al-Irada FC. Watch how the Celtic community is supporting amputee footballers in PaIestine.
Standing with PaIestine. 🇵🇸🍀
@PaulDevenney Oneill had 3 out and out central defenders backed by proper dynamic wing backs. Yang and tounekti aren't those type of players. Yang looked different player in o neills month in charge.
BREAKING: A new UN report finds that Israel’s assault on Gaza - with the destruction of health care, education, infrastructure, even the banking system - has erased 69 years of human development, marking the worst economic collapse ever recorded.
This is not war: it is genocide.
Celtic really need to give Hatate and Tounekti the ball and say, "Do what you want with it". Hatate in particular I feel must have been told to stop playing forward passes last 6 months. Need to play attacking football. Too over coached.
@PaulDevenney I'm afraid it's not just the keeper. 1 goal in4 european games against, respectfully, low quality opposition. We've not much options though to change that
@LootersC We were in decent position last season, showing glimpses of competitiveness against good opposition. Perfect opportunity to strengthen squad and see how we do with bit of balls and backing. Instead sold off our best attackers and not replaced with quality
