The English FA and management of Wembley Stadium have come under intense fire for refusing to light the Wembley arch in support of Israelis following the Oct 7th Hamas terrorist massacre. In separate statements, the UK Government Secretary for Culture, Media and Sport, Lucy Frazer, and former British MP, Lord Mann, expressed extreme disappointment at the decision of the FA, which stands at gross odds with the UK Government.
The association, which became a cesspool for the proliferation of LGBTQ+, bestiality, and irreversible genital mutilation in teenagers, refused to take a stand against Hamas terrorism in Israel, sparking angry reactions over the glaring double standards of the body now caught in a liberal-leaning, virtue-signalling, terrorist-apologist web.
In the past, the FA had lit up its stadium in solidarity with France (following the 2015 terror attacks), Ukraine, Turkey, LGBTQWERTYx, and during the death of Brazilian legendary footballer, Pele. This time, it has refused to condemn Hamas’ rape, kidnapping, murder, and terror for fear of angering radical Islamists.
The English FA stands against rape but not rape acts committed by Hamas. It claims to champion the course of the LGBTQ community but conveniently ignores the death sentence for gays in Palestine. For over six months, English players were compelled to wear Black Lives Matter crested jerseys and take a knee before every match in solidarity with the BLM movement. “The BLM movement has now been revealed as a supporter of Hamas terrorists” and a money-laundering arm of the US Democrat party, yet “the English FA remains silent,” added UK Health Minister, Neil O’Brien.
For an institution widely known to entangle itself in highly controversial non-footballing issues for the convenience of virtue signaling and turn the soccer pitch into a campaign ground for immorality cloaked as freedom, its inability to condemn terror and oppression by Hamas against Palestinians speaks volumes and calls for investigation into a likely radical ideology among its heads and affiliates.
Over 1500 innocent Israeli civilians were tortured, raped, and murdered last week Saturday, as Hamas launched air, land and sea attacks on multiple Israeli towns. Mainstream reports reveal over 300 captured Israelis including infants, elderly women, and teenage girls, taken to Gaza as a bargaining chip for Hamas. Israel, in retaliation, has targeted multiple public and residential buildings from which Hamas launched over 3000 rockets in the first 48 hours of the attack.
The UK Government vehemently condemned the terrorist attacks by Hamas, supporting in the same vein, Israel’s right to defend herself. PM Sunak held Jewish prayers at a North London Jewish Synagogue in solidarity with Israel over the attacks.
Both Labour and Conservative MPs have berated the football body over its misalignment with the UK, with Lucy Frazer calling on soccer bodies to “mark the events [in support of Israel] appropriately in line with previous events where sports have come together.’
