Mouhamad Rachini · CBC News – As Israel prepares to play 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, its soccer teams are facing calls to be banned from all competitions.
Soccer fans around the world have been chanting, unfurling banners and holding red placards demanding FIFA and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) “Show Israel the Red Card.”
“It’s amazing that it’s reaching this far,” Palestinian content creator Ahmed Bdair told CBC News. “All this kind of stuff has, honestly, pleasantly surprised me.”
