Helluva take on the FIFA raids by STWC
FIFA vote to kick Israel out of world football conveniently blocked by US intervention

No amount of cajolery...
Eh?? Is it time to just call them an antisemitic loon site yet? FIFA is corrupt as fuck. Nothing to do with israel.

I don't think this article is anti semitic ...the points it raises are legitimate matters for concern as the article talks about abuses caused by Israel which are real but it is complete conspiracy lunacy bollocks!
It reads like they are desperate to remind people they are still around as there is little or no point to them existing as an organisation.

An overbearing obsession like this can easily become anti-semitic without having any of the formal traits of classical anti-semitism - the obsession is the anti-semitism. Perfectly possible to see the jews behind everything without abusing them.

You may only have seen the newly edited version - the one that's there now - the one without the really dodgy stuff that was there last night.

Apparently you have to draw the possibly unintended consequences to their attention, politely, then comfort them if they get upset.

I haven't been looking at their website so have no idea if they are obsessed...I was more commenting on the article in isolation. I think that the concerns about the Israel government abusing Palestine footballers are valid and therefore it should be taken up within FIFA.
I think the article was stupid and ill thought out.
I do agree with you overall point about how it's possible to be anti semetic through obsession (David Icke and the 9/11 conspiracy theorists show this to be true) but I hope that STW are not going down that line.

It's quite important that we're looking at the same article.I don't think we were.

Forgot about your other post...pisses me off tbh.
Its easy to justifiably criticise the Israeli Government without being anti semitic so am at a loss why any organisation that claims to be on the left fails to do so.
Edit...your post doesn't piss me off ... left organisations being anti semitic do!

You laughed but this posh-lefty exercise has helped one prominent Counterfirer:
Over the moon to announce my latest appointment as General Manager of Cafe & Events at the prestigious Whitworth Art Gallery. Proud to work along esteemed artists including our sisterade Rai Aurora. This job is right up my street: wonderful hours, loads of leeway with events, a high powered projector to project video on the wall opposite through the all glass walled stunning 'Cafe in the Trees' and an award-winning scouser chef who's worked all over the Middle East and speaks a bit of Arabic & Greek (like me!). Do pop in or get in touch with event proposals
The Counterfire website has become heavily Labour now, with this image the backdrop for the home page

I wonder is they'll allow the staff to unionise.
