Israel’s apartheid politics must come to an end. They have no intention of giving the Palestinians the land and the freedom they’re entitled to. The ethnic cleansing of East-Jerusalem, and the West Bank, and the horrid siege of Gaza are evidence enough that Israel must get the same treatment South Africa got. BOYCOTT ISRAEL!
Whether or not you agree with Israel’s policies has nothing to do with this tennis match. If you want to start preventing athletes from competing because of the policies their countries, most Arab athletes would have to stay home. However they want to dress it up, the UAE’s decision to bar Shahar Peer from competing was a political decision. If they don’t understand the concept of fair competition, then their event SHOULD be stripped of support. UAE’s decision violates WTA rules, and they should be punished for it.
