Spanish Soccer Team Makes Gilad Shalit a VIP Guest; Muslim Fans Seethe and Rage
They're such cry babies:
CAIRO – Spain’s football giant FC Barcelona has angered Muslim fans by inviting released Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit as a guest of honor to a derby game with rival Real Madrid next month.
“Gilad Shalit's invite is a new cover up of Zionist crimes under the pretense of sports,” a Gaza-based prisoners’ organization said in a statement cited by Yediot Aharonot on Thursday, September 27
“How can a dignified sports club, which calls for culture and humanity, invite a murderer and criminal like Shalit to honor and thank him?"
The football giant has extended a VIP invitation to Shalit, who was released last year after five years in captivity by Palestinian resistance group, to attend a derby match with Real Madrid on October 7.
“Barcelona is a place of unity not divisions,” the club’s vice president, Carles Vilarrubí, told reporters.
“This invitation does not indicate in any way that Barca takes a position in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.”...
Had Carles any stones, he would have pointed out that Shalit was in Israel when he was captured by members of Hamas, and that his kidnappers were the criminals.
