They’ve hated us since we ended the British Mandate of Palestine and allowed it to become the Israeli State. They’ve hated us for a long time but didn’t have the means or wherewithal to bring that hatred to our shores . Now they have…… Cheers. Yeah...

eastcoast 4,078 Posted October 4 Report Share Posted October 4 Something just pinged in my brain, I've never been to Israel but was once on route. Newcastle were playing there and I had a ticket. Cannot remember why but the flight had a stopover at Dublin airport for a few hours. I went for a pint in town and bumped into a friend and ended up staying in Dublin for a week so never went to Israel. This is what pinged, how come they play in European football competitions and enter the Eurovision Song Contest? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
