UK MPs clash with minister for defending Maccabi as Tel Aviv club refuse tickets
While the Maccabi Tel Aviv have decided to not accept away tickets for their fans ahead of their next month’s tie against Aston Villa, this didn’t stop the UK parliament from devoting its precious time to discuss the controversy over a foreign club. The debate on the ban on Maccabi fans saw UK minister Lisa Nandy openly extend her support to the Tel Aviv club despite its questionable past. But many from her own party as well as independent MPs used the opportunity to call out her government’s hypocrisy. Rifat Jawaid says that people like Keir Starmer and Nandy would be responsible for pushing the Labour Party into the dustbin of history.

Jared Kushner, Peter Thiel and Larry Ellison are linked to plans In Gaza that will certainly make them even richer.
What is going to happen to the Palestinians though? Are those that survive to be the cheap service industry workers for Trump's riviera of the ME?
'Peace' plan... No wonder there's nothing about Palestinian self-rule or a Palestinian state in the plan and the West Bank / East Jerusalem ignored. (Just a maybe we'll talk about it later). Promising recognition of annexation of the West Bank is likely part of how Trump is convincing Israel to go along.
Corruption everywhere, justice nowhere.
