"What sum more must the Palestinian football family grieve over FIFA to act with a comparable franticness and earnestness as it did in various cases? Does FIFA trust a couple of contentions to be a higher need than others and a couple of losses to be more colossal?"

Rajoub said 193 Palestinian players had been killed, football establishment demolished, its affiliations suspended and its public gathering expected to play World Cup qualifiers abroad.
