Irish comedian urges boycott of Israel football fixture
Original: 'Playing against genocide': Irish comedian, activist urges boycott of Israel fixture over Gaza war
An Irish comedian and activist is calling for a boycott of a football fixture involving Israel, arguing that teams should refuse to play against Israel while the war in Gaza continues. She described competing against Israel as 'playing against genocide', framing the appeal as part of wider campaigns to exclude Israeli teams from international sporting events. The call adds to ongoing debate over whether sport should remain separate from the politics of the conflict.
Why now: The Gaza war has reignited campaigns to ban or boycott Israeli teams from international sport.
