UEFA Finally Speaks Out on Slain Israelis

After the European football league chose to remain entirely silent on the massacre in Israel for over ten days, it finally decided to have a moment of silence for the victims.

Unlike many football teams and a large number of sports organizations and celebrities, the European football organization UEFA said nothing at all on the massacre in the south and made no gesture in memory of the murdered. By contrast, they quickly had a moment of silence in memory of the two murdered Swedes in the Brussels shooting attack, while continuing to not address the murdered Israelis in the south.

This decision led to a firestorm over the subject, with a lot of pressure applied to UEFA for its hypocrisy, ultimately leading UEFA to back down and have a moment of silence for the murdered Israelis.
