International sports federations refuse to suspend Israel despite destruction of sports in Gaza and killing of hundreds of athletes (Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, 2025-08-11)
>> The refusal of international and continental sports federations to suspend Israel’s membership, 22 months after its perpetration of genocide in the Gaza Strip, constitutes a blatant violation of the values and principles they claim to uphold. It reflects a selective, double-standard application of the rules governing the participation of states, clubs, and individuals in international and continental competitions …
>> The normalisation by sports federations of the participation of representatives of a state committing genocide is not only a legal violation but also an unprecedented moral failure.

i keep saying this: to understand why FBI was after #JeffreyEpstein, we need to look at the #FIFA #CONCACAF case that also involved Trump as a non-indicted person of interest.
Trump was taking money from CONCACAF’s Chuck Blazer who, like Epstein, "died" in federal prison during his first term.
Blazer, Epstein & Trump are faces of a criminal “billionaire” mafia
An international media crisis is forming, & unfortunately the Israeli army has not provided any responses for many hours. Sulaiman Al-Obeid, a football player from #Gaza nicknamed the "Palestinian Pelé," was killed—according to reports—last Wednesday by Israeli army gunfire near a distribution center. Egyptian Liverpool star Mohamed Salah shared a tweet from the European #Football Association & requested to know how and when he died

the Comeys have a lot of explaining to do: why was Donald Trump left off the hook in two of the biggest corruption and human-trafficking cases in the history of the #FBI, if not the United States.
Mr 10% Blazer was wheeling sacks of money that he used to pay for not one but TWO APARTMENTS in Trump Towers, one of them allegedly for his cats.
here’s a refresher for the #FIFA #CONCACAF case, which i insist, is more important than the #PanamaPapers :

@dangillmor First we must organize a #fifa #Football2026 #WK2026 #boycot Stop buying products from the sponsors.
Also, this is why #FIFA should strip the US of all World Cup games and move them to Mexico and Canada. This is not a safe place for visitors under the Trump administration.
Cancel World Cup games in the United States due to Trump‘s immigration policy and ICE locking people up with no due process for months and then deporting them to countries they don’t even come from.
Why would anybody wanna come here and risk being disappeared?
Do it a #FIFA grow a pair. Tell Trump we’re not coming.
Trump’s gonna lose all that revenue because of his CONCENTRATION CAMP camp in Florida.
Still have the games in Mexico & Canada.
