Israel bombed the Palestine National Football Stadium in Gaza Strip.
FIFA has demanded a explanation of the bombing, and this week is considering disciplinary measures against Israel.
It is essential that at this critical moment that the people of the world make our voices heard that Palestine has a right to national representation in
International Sports. Please follow the link below and sign the petition to
FIFA asking them to suspend Israeli membership until Israel stops
obstructing Palestine's right to national identity and participation.
In 2004, Israel set out to prevent the Palestinian football team from representing the Palestinian people on an international level during the World Cup qualifiers by disallowing several members of the team from leaving the Gaza Strip for their second match after winning the first one against Chinese Taipei (8-0). This caused Palestine to lose their second match and their chance as World Cup contenders.
They're trying to get 10,000 signatures in 1 week!!
Thank you.
