Maccabi Tel Aviv fans banned due to safety concerns AGAINST them?

Since when is it ok to victim blame and penalise people who have done nothing wrong? Surely the right course of action would be either to ban ALL fans of both sides or better police the event?

So are Jews not welcome at sports games now? Because some people are racist bullies?

I genuinely can’t believe this has been allowed. Where does it end? Can Jews no longer safely access society? What if the risk is high elsewhere, will they be banned then?

What do you think? AIBU to think this is discriminatory and a slippery slope?

They don’t sound like Maccabi Tel aviv fans?

Yep

So why are police resources being wasted on the Palestinian/ left wing hate marches taking part up and down the country every week.

IAGS don’t make me laugh.As for the UN.
I understand they are trying to change the definition of genocide so they can claim that against Israel.
Yeah ok ..

"Five-month investigation reveals how four members of one family were shot and killed in a single day and highlights a pattern in which Israeli troops target unarmed civilians.

Daniel Raab shows no hesitation as he watches footage of 19-year-old Salem Doghmosh crumpling to the ground beside his brother in a street in northern Gaza.

“That was my first elimination,” he says. The video, shot by a drone, lasts just a few seconds. The Palestinian teenager appears to be unarmed when he is shot in the head.

Raab, a former varsity basketball player from a Chicago suburb who became an Israeli sniper, concedes he knew that. He says he shot Salem simply because he tried to retrieve the body of his beloved older brother Mohammed.

“It’s hard for me to understand why he [did that] and it also doesn’t really interest me,” Raab says in a video interview posted on X. “I mean, what was so important about that corpse?”

Yes I do.

Marching through Amsterdam shouting 'there are no schools in Gaza because the children are all dead '
Disrespected a minutes silence for the victims of the Valencia floods.
Laughing, mocking and letting off fireworks, showing no respect or care. Proud of their ignorant behaviour.

Making mon*ey noises and shouting racist commentsm directing them at black and Arab players on a regular basis.
Sing racist chants regularly, loudly and proudly as they say themselves.

TBH if anyone with their confirmed reputation came into my community and behaved as they have done many times in the past I would be support a ban. I would have no hesitation defending my community in such circumstances.

It’s shit.

It’s why I and a lot of other Jewish people are making plans to leave the UK.

So anti semitism is ok but if Muslims cause problems then it is Muslim bashing.
I see, I get you now.
Jews = bad.
Dont mention anything bad Muslims do and if you do you are racist.
No wonder the grooming gangs got away with raping thousands of white children around the country.

Jews are allowed to the football match. There is no ban on Jewish people. Just fans of an Israeli football team who have form for being disrespectful, racist, hooligans. Why are Muslims being brought into this conversation at all, what have they done here, did they ban Macabi fans?

This is spot on. Apart from the last line as MTA aren’t playing their home Europa fixtures in Israel as it is deemed unsafe so they’re playing home fixtures in Serbia.

No one owns the term genocide.

And if anyone is weaponsing genocide it’s the likes of you knowing full well the 6 millions Jews genocide was committed against in the 2nd World War.
SHAME ON YOU.

No I understand and agree with that.
My response was to the poster who claimed it was a Muslim bashing thread.

Willy boy is a Villa fan isn't he? Wonder if he was planning to attend.

But people are very quick to throw it at Israel who were trying to eliminate Hamas not Palestinians..
Unfortunately there is so many Jew haters on MN who like to throw that term about as if they own the term.

As Kemi Badenoch said: the government has effectively acknowledged that there are 'no go' areas for Jews in this country.

Let that sink in

It is utterly despicable, and any right minded person should be appalled.

Are you really saying this to someone Jewish, who is so appalled by the Jew hate in this country she is thinking of going to the only place that is a Jewish homeland, specifically set up because of the banishments of Jewish people the world over.
The fuck where do you think Jewish people should go.
Or are you really actually saying they should not exist.
Fuck me.

The police are saying that if the fans come, they will be attacked by antisemites. So it pretty much is a ban on Jews, dictated by a mob who the police refuse to deal with, community cohesion blah, blah, blah.

If the police won't do their fucking job, we should get the army on the streets.
