Meaning what exactly?
A predictable programme jew bashing by the BBC is supposed to interest our suporters in respect of Hemed in what way? Just another nasty jew?

So,it's all lies,just a vicious smear by the anti-Semitic BBC?
I don't know how they get away with it

I wouldn't say its lies, but its easy to pick holes in a country if you mind is geared that way, as well as providing fodder to attack other Jews.
Can you imagine a thread on here "given we have a muslim player fans may find this programme on Islamic State of interest?"
How does that sit with you?

I may be wrong, but I understood the point of the thread was that we have an Israeli Jew, and an Israeli Arab in our team, who are good friends,and an Israeli club that is trying to intergrate Muslim players into their club, and the problems they are facing with their less tolerant support.
If the poster had commented on right wing gangs amongst the support of Czech teams, because we have a Czech international, would you have commented on that?

Probably, I'm not to keen on smearing our team members by making underhand insinuations. Its rotten old identity politics again.

Don't be ridiculous. I saw a programme about Britain First about a year ago, there was a thread on here about it. I didn't consider a smear on any of our white English players, but,there again,I'm not looking to stir controversy where none excists

Did the thread directly reference and try to associate Britain first with any of our white English players?
I'm willing to accept the OP may have used clumsy phrases. You wont even go there? Why?

I rather think it's you who is making "underhand insinuations" regarding the motivations of my post. As for your logic regarding your Idi Amin comparison it's a totally ridiculous analogy. The fact that you only mentioned Hemed in your original response betrays an ignorance on your part of the cultural background of a prominent member of our squad and the significance of his relationship and friendship with Hemed.

I won't go there because there is nothing wrong. The said programme is about the racism/ religious bigotry of the hardcore support of the Israeli club. The fact we have a devout Jew and a devout Moslem in our team at the same time,who are good friends,and the juxtaposition of the Israeli support may be of interest to some of our support. If you think either the post is wrong or the programme, do what I do with the majority of television, and comments on here, ignore it.

" I rather think it's you who is making "underhand insinuations" regarding the motivations of my postI"
Quite the opposite, my crime if it is such would be taking it at face value and not reading into it that you meant both players as you may expect Brighton fans to think. Hence it is sloppy wording. Or lazy wording on a controversial issue, or trolling.
Because?

My opening post doesn't need amending but I welcome your suggestions on how it should be worded in order to avoid causing offence to those who may be that way inclined. I've also just noticed your "trolling" accusation. Very ironic.

Sorry about any confusion caused but only just realised we inadvertantly bought a tv guide for next week instead of this week. Went all weekend without realising. I don't know why it was on sale so early.
