Israel playing in European competition is about as political as it gets.

It's a bit late to change that.

Palestino, a club founded by the large Palestinian community in Chile, has used the new kit in three matches.

I had no idea. How strange.

Jewish organisations complained that the design implied that all the land was Palestinian.

Having just mentioned that I have never been banned on here I shall refrain from commenting on this one.
