Apparently, the Jews in Israel do not share the values of the Jew haters in the EU
EU sports chief hints Israel should get the boot from competitions over Gaza war
When asked how the sporting world should respond to the crisis in Gaza, the EU’s sports chief has signaled there should be “no space” in events for countries that do not share “our values.”
Israel has come under increasing pressure from Europe recently over its military offensive in the besieged enclave, with the majority of EU countries last week backing a review of the bloc’s political agreement with the country.
Several Israeli ambassadors were also summoned to EU capitals, from Rome to Paris, after the Israel Defense Forces admitted they had fired “warning shots” at a diplomatic delegation visiting the West Bank that included European officials.
Sports Commissioner Glenn Micallef condemned the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza and said the sporting world needs to speak up.
“When it comes to sports, I think there should be no space in sporting events for those who do not share our values,” he told POLITICO without naming Israel directly, in response to a question as to whether the country should face sporting sanctions over the Gaza war. “Sport is a tool that we use to promote peace, through which we promote human rights.”
So, will Palestinians be allowed to compete? Europe doesn’t seem to block Iran and many hardcore Islamist nations from competing. But, this is all about Jew hatred
The sporting world has seen repeated calls to boycott Israel’s participation in international competitions, from the Olympics to the World Cup, although such proposals have so far largely been rejected.
But, again, not blocking Iran or other Muslim extremist nations. The EU chief and others should just say they hate Jews and want Israel erased already, stop beating around the bush. Has the EU sports chief considered that Palestinians would be happy to take over EU nations?
Sir.
The United States by and large no longer shares the values of the EU and Europe at large barring a few countries that are now trapped by being a part of the EU when they joined at a time when the EU still held some semblance of sanity.
The EU has become a much more authoritarian version of the far left the USA is dealing with today.
So I choose to stand with Israel rather than the EU. If it comes down to Russia invading the EU vs the EU invading Israel a single outcome would occur in both instances. The EU minus the USA would of course get soundly trounced as they have for decades used their military budgets to GO all AUTHORITARIAN on the people, stripping them of their right to self worth.
The EU is nothing more than a Chinese target for taking over the world and the USA does not have the resources to fix what ails Europe and fight a war against China in the east and China in the west.
Our true remaining allies are to be found in the Middle East and far East with Europe and Africa mostly gone to the Chinese. This is why Trump has so soundly spanked the EU since getting into office. They have become authoritarian Fascists which the left should condemn but they instead love them some Fascism run by Billionaire Authoritarians.
C’est La vie. As they say. This is the life. The life Europe has chosen. Afraid of having to confront an every expanding and increasing foreign presence in their own lands because their own SOCIAL EXPERIMENT with SOCIALISM as USUAL FAILED.
I stand with Israel. Fuk the EU. Let them eat cake. They damn sure could not help the USA in the event of armed conflict. The USA would have to turn to Japan, Australia and Korea for their assistance which would be given at a moments notice. They are true allies who hold honor as paramount and their word as valuable as any money.
The leaches of Europe can go fuck themselves.
Aleksandr Anatolyevich Vlasov is a Russian professional cyclist on the Union Cycliste Internationale World Tour team Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe. On the television graphics, cyclists are shown with their nations’ flags showing, but since the invasion of Ukraine, the television coverage has either omitted a flag following Aleksandr Anatolyevich’s name, or simply used a blank white flag there.
There is no Russian team competing, but the World Tour teams almost always have multiple nationalities in the competitions. After the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the UCI said that Russian and Belarusian teams are forbidden from competing in international events. It also stripped both Russia and Belarus of scheduled events.
Team Israel-Premier Tech is on the UCI tour, and has amassed enough points so that it seems probable that they will be granted World Team status after this season. World Teams are automatic entrants in the UCI tour races, with some of the second tier, professional teams filling what we Americans would consider at-large berths, and Israel-Premier Tech has been doing well this season. A couple of the UCI World Teams are in danger of falling out of the top tier due to poor results.
Today is the beginning of the third and final week of the Giro d’Italia. Isaac del Toro was in the pink jersey to start the day, but these last stages are the toughest mountain stages of all.
We’ve all heard of the yellow jersey as the leader’s jersey, from the Tour de France, but the Giro uses pink and the Vuelta a España, the third of the major grand tour races, has the leader in red.
