Under current conditions in the U.S., European participation in the FIFA World Cup 2026 is not acceptable.
No fan should be asked to risk intimidation or arbitrary detention. Sport must not legitimize repression.

The FIFA World Cup 2026 cannot be held under the current political conditions in the United States. This event must not be used to legitimize authoritarian policies or human rights abuses.

Brilliant video from @avaaz.org !

Hey @fifaworldcup26.bsky.social & UEFA why the double standards?

Israel is committing genocide and should barred from sports competition.

I hope #Ottawa 's own #DerekGee, riding - inexplicably - for Team "Israel Premier Tech" in this year's #TourDeFrance, falls off his bike.

Hey FIFA why the double standards?

Russia is banned from world football over its war crimes in Ukraine, why not Israel over its genocide in Gaza?

Israel violates the human rights rules of FIFA - <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:rgz5kqzptn7vvojimieo44qc" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link="bsky-mention">@fifaworldcup26.bsky.social

GIVE ISRAEL THE RED CARD!

So, human rights abuses are fine as long as the books balance? 🤦‍♂️💰

England’s new football regulator says he can’t stop owners accused of torture or repression because his job is just “financial stability.”

The moral goalposts have vanished ⚽🔥

England football regulator David Kogan says blocking club owners over human rights concerns 'not in our remit'
"What we're absolutely focused on is financial stability and solidity and that's my remit and that is the remit I have to stick to," says David Kogan.

Human rights scandals have plagued World Cups for years ⚽️

For 2026 in North America, FIFA is testing a new rule: every host committee must have an action plan to protect rights.

Yet another reason to oppose trump and his vendetta against responsoible journalism.
And yet another reason why I will continue to boycott LIV golf coverage (owned by the Saudis and which trump sucks up to) and root against LIV golfers. #NoSportswashing

Tennis Canada cannot claim to care about safety, when they choose to protect a genocidal state over the Palestinian people. We condemn Tennis Canada for caring more about the safety of Israeli athletes than of the 2 million Palestinians in Gaza, under relentless bombardment. #nosportswashing

We cheer the goals, but what about the funding?

Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, face allegations of sportwashing links

Time for independent audits & ethical investment rules

Opinion | Even our favorite team has a human rights sportwashing problem
Arsenal and some other Premier League teams have sordid connections.
