Virtuoso 27,180 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 A club like no other indeed... Quote CELTIC FANS CALL THE CLUB’S ISRAELI MIDFIELDER A “DIRTY JEW BASTARD” AND A “ZIONIST RAT” AFTER LOSS TO RIVAL RANGERS Celtic fans have unleashed a torrent of abuse at the club’s Israeli midfielder after a weekend derby saw a loss to rival Rangers. Nir Bitton was called a “dirty Jew bastard” and a “Zionist rat” on social media after receiving a red card in the match. His wife also revealed that she has been subjected to abuse, including calls for her and her husband to be “hanged”. One post said: “Here you ya cow, you and yer husband deserve tae be hung on the streets. F**k you and yer wains.” Their two children have also reportedly had abuse directed at them as well. This is not the first time that Mr Bitton has disclosed the abuse he suffers from the club’s fans; in 2016 the police launched an investigation after a Celtic fan said that Mr Bitton should be gassed. It is also not Celtic’s first brush with controversy over Jews or Israel, having been sanctioned by UEFA in the past over persistent problems. In the Scottish FA Cup final in 2016, for example, fans displayed a banner reading “end Zionism”. A Jewish former director of the club was also subjected to abuse by fans, including “Get this Ashkenazi c*** out of OUR club and take that other fake jew p**** Bitton with him [sic]”, and “He’s a Jew what do you expect”. Late last year, the Premier League and all of its constituent clubs bar Sheffield United adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism. A spokesperson for Campaign Against Antisemitism said: “With this latest episode of antisemitic abuse, Celtic FC perpetuates its tradition of appalling Jew-baiting. It is even more astonishing when such abuse is directed at its own players and staff. The club could learn a lesson from clubs south of the border that have adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism. Unlike Celtic, they show that they take anti-Jewish racism seriously.” https://antisemitism.org/celtic-fans-call-the-clubs-israeli-midfielder-a-dirty-jew-bastard-and-a-zionist-rat-after-loss-to-rival-rangers/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoGerfficiency 137 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I don't understand why Governments, politicians, political parties, religions, schools, universities, individual public figures, celebrities that show the slightest hint on having anti semitic behaviour get utterly ruined beyond future repair almost of any kind, but ra seltic fans that are not even condemned by their club at a reasonable level, time after time ..are allowed to be full on anti semitic and actually boast it and then seem to get free from it. It does not happen to any other person or political entity to get this constant get out of jail card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
