Spanish government officials have threatened that their national team might not play in next year’s World Cup if Israel qualify.

According to the spokesperson for the prominent Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party, Patxi Lopez, they would “assess” the situation if it came to pass.

Earlier this week, a United Nations, UN, commission of inquiry ruled that Israel committed genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

Israel have not qualified for the World Cup since 1970, but stand a chance of qualifying for next year’s expanded tournament.

They sit in third place in their UEFA qualifying group, level on points with Italy who occupy the play-off spot, having played one game more than the Azzurris.

Lopez said: “We will assess the situation at the right time.

“What we want is for people to realize that if Israeli teams cannot take part in sporting events or Eurovision, some are starting to open their eyes.”

STOP mixIng football with politics! The players worked hard for that qualification, let them play! If the football governing bodies are allowing genocidal terrorists play in competitions, don't let your players suffer for their indiscretion.

Genocide 🤣🤣🤣🤣, follow history and know what truly happens,
Genocides is biko Haram slaughtering the Northern part of the country, And GEJ stepping up against them back and the entire North ganging against him


That's the situation of Israel and Palestine,

This time it involves an independent country,
With boko Haram ( Hamas ) lunching an attack against Israel, murdering and kidnapping their citizens,

And when GEJ ( Israel ) returns the Favour, Palestine ( everyone ) start shouting Genocides,


Release the hostages, let them go, and come to the table for Peace they are dragging foota
It's not as if Israel is holding even 1 Palestinian hostage too

MADNESS!

Politics is ALL-ENCOMPASSING.

You CANNOT nickel and dime genocide.

If the right hand is STABBING you with a dagger, it's MADNESS to shake the left hand.

They are ONE and the same.

Most RUSSIANS have NOT done an illegal thing in their life BUT they must all bear the CONSEQUENCES of Putin's actions.

TheSuperNerd:
Abeg FIFA, just in case The Super Eagles dont make it, give us Spain's spot if Israel qualifies eventually. Thank you. 😄

Spain's Government should kindly follow through on the boycott threat when/if Israel punches that WC Ticket. I am sure teams like France, Argentina, Germany and co will be glad to see one dominant competitor out of way.

RealLordZeus:
