FIFA double standards: suspend apartheid Israel, don’t sanction Indonesia

JVL Introduction

A JVL member writes:

You may be interested in signing a letter to FIFA in relation to its continued disregard of the violently racist actions by the Israeli government, together with other violations of international law, towards Palestinian footballers and teams.

You are not required to write your own letter unless you wish to do so [there is a form letter you can send with a simple click].

The letter was prompted by FIFA’s sanctioning of Indonesia as host of the U-20 World Cup this year because that country was boycotting Israel’s participation.

The account below gives full details of the current situation in respect to Palestinian football and Israel’s actions.

This is one small act of solidarity we can all give.  Please forward to friends, relatives and to anyone else who may be interested.
