    Why the fuck is Israel allowed in UEFA? Like, why are their clubs playing Europa or Champions League football?

    Asian Federation won’t allow them? Man, who gives a fuck, they can play in CONCACAF or play by themselves.

      They used to play on the Asian Federation until basically everyone in Asia told them to fuck off because of zionism and Israel sucks at football anyway, they are known to lose to countries like San Marino and Iceland.

      Israel joined the Asian Football Federation in 1954. Israel hosted and won the 1964 Asian Cup, the only trophy it has ever won, and became the runner-up in both 1956 and 1960. In that tournament, many teams withdrew from the championship over their political disputes with both Israel and India. Taiwan — which used to play previously as the Republic of China — withdrew for logistical reasons. The 1964 tournament was left with only four teams — Israel, India, South Korea, and Hong Kong.

      The final straw that broke the camel's back came as a motion initiated by Kuwait in 1974 to expel Israel from the AFC, when both the Arab Gulf nation and North Korea refused to play against Israel in the Asian games. The motion saw a 17 to 13 vote in favour, with six nations abstaining.

    Looks like their footballers are about as competent as their (practically) child soldiers.
