@FIFAcom council could vote in the next 48h whether to ban Israel from international football over its crimes in Palestine and violations of FIFA rules.
It seems like FIFA is aiming for the this meeting to go unnoticed.
Here’s what we can do to keep pushing them👇🏼🧵
Tag @FIFAcom and @UEFAcom.
If FIFA wants to maintain its claim of supporting justice and human rights, it must take serious action against Israel. Here are some talking points (via @Eko_Movement)
@FIFAcom @UEFAcom @Eko_Movement Send a message to @FIFAcom president Gianni Infantino through Instagram.
He holds the power to immediately suspend Israel from the federation — and has been ignoring the Israeli FA violations of FIFA rules for years instagram.com/gianni_infanti…

It takes a couple minutes. Let them know the whole world is watching.
@MotsepeFoundtn @VicMontagliani @agdws @OFCfootball Video footage shows Palestinian men and children being detained en masse in a football stadium in Gaza, surrounded by Israeli occupation forces
@MotsepeFoundtn @VicMontagliani @agdws @OFCfootball Footage shows the final moments of displaced people at Abasan School in eastern Khan Younis, playing football in the schoolyard before the Israeli army bombed them. A massacre that killed dozens and injured hundreds.
@MotsepeFoundtn @VicMontagliani @agdws @OFCfootball More sickening footage: an Israeli soldier sitting in a stolen home and showing off all the football t-shirts he looted in Gaza.
If they're not killing civilians, they're stealing.

Israeli airstrikes have killed the young Palestinian runner Wasem Ayman Abu Deeb, member of the Palestinian National Athletics team.
The occupation forces bombed his family home in Khan Younis last night.
Wasem participated in the 2018 U20 Arab Championship, Jordan.
2018 West Asian Championship, Jordan.
2018 Asian Games, Jakarta.
2021 Arab Men's and Women's Championship, Tunisia.
Israel have killed Wasem two weeks before the start of the @Olympics, where they will be competing — fully aware that they would face absolutely no consequences.
