How FIFA Fuels the Occupation of Palestine

In this episode of The End of Sport, Nathan sits down with Scottish Sport for Palestine’s Jill Thompson to talk about the ongoing violations of international law by Israel in Palestinian territories. Focusing on the role of FIFA and UEFA in enabling sports-related violations and the recent findings by Scottish Sport for Palestine, they discuss the implications of these violations, the legal actions being taken, and the broader context of cultural and political resistance through sport. They also explore the troubling involvement of FIFA and UEFA in supporting illegal settlement clubs in Palestine, highlighting issues of international law violations, sportswashing, and the complicity of global sports organizations in geopolitical conflicts.Keywords: Israel, Palestine, FIFA, UEFA, international law, sports violations, Scottish Sport for Palestine, ICC, apartheid, cultural genocideHosts in this episode: Nathan________________________________________Support & Follow The End of SportPatreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/Theendofsport⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Support the show!)Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@endofsportpod.bsky.social⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@endofsportpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter/X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@EndofSportPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The End of Sport⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen, share, and support The End of Sport, a proud member of the Harbinger Media Network, a community of over sixty leftist podcasts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠harbingermedianetwork.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
