Saudi fan confronts Israeli reporter at World Cup in Qatar | AFP

A man wearing a Saudi Arabia football shirt confronts an Israeli TV reporter at Education City stadium in Doha, saying "You are not welcome here...There is only Palestine. There is no Israel". The incident is one of many in which Israeli journalists have been harangued during the World Cup in Qatar.

He's so happy to have that on camera

[yogaaapratama]

His sadness is not comparable to the sadness of our brothers in Gaza

A wise man doesn't speak but allows the other to talk to show who he truly is

Even if he is Israeli, he has nothing to do with his country's politics. He is probably apolitical, atheist, or even opposed to settlements. Judging someone on such shallow grounds as their skin color or passport shows nothing but your own ignorance

Appreciate his patience of not replying....

He’s thinking, “ please tell me you recorded that” 😂

Y’all must have some context to understand the situation:
This Israeli reporter went asking for trouble. He was trying his best to misrepresent Qatar and Arabs in general. Even Maluma left in the middle of his interview because of his racist questions.
Other than that, Arab reporters are continuously harassed (like most Arabs there) by his people. They’re lucky if they weren’t targeted by snipers which also happens there.
Christian Arab reporter Sherine Abu Aqla was one of the victims.


3.4 Million people from around the world went to see the world cup in Qatar. None of them was harassed except this guy and for obvious reasons.

Arabs love meeting people and are very hospitable. You can search for solo traveler videos and you’ll see many of them sharing their experiences. You will not see any racism or discrimination.

How many normal Arabs are being told “Go back to your country” in the west? How many are being racially profiled?

Arabs appreciate respect and want to protect their land. When I travel to any country, I always respect the law and know my boundaries. I don’t go there to misrepresent its people. If a settler colonialist comes to cause problems and stir up hatred, he shouldn’t cry if he gets what he’s asking for.
I’m so proud of this Saudi legend.

“This is Qatar! This is our country! You are not welcome here [because] there is only Palestine!” - a Saudi Arabian

Instant classic. Probably my favorite highlight of the world cup so far!

Peacefull community spreading peace❤❤❤

Citizens of the world should never be abused for what their government rulers do, the ordinary man just doesn’t get a huge say in what the ruling elites do in our name.

[beastmodemn]

Judging someone based off their country of origin is not the way to do it

[dy]

They wonder why they are getting their ass kicked??

[alDevo]

He’s not a politician or a police officer or a member of the idf, this is not clever or supporting Palestine this is abusing a normal man not cool

[MarkJesus]

You can see who is peaceful and who is not. Thanks.

[ryansweeney]

He got treated better than foreigners in his country

[hamzahakeem]

Good now they not welcomed in more places
