awww, the delicate israeli flower will be deeply offended if you fly a palestinian flag...
i really don't know what the UEFA expects when they tell the fans of ANY club NOT to do a specific thing, but i can tell you what the most likely outcome will be: exactly the opposite!
just imagine they told italian fans not to wear or show any crosses while their club is playing against a turkish club - because, you know, religion has no place in football and it would offend them... and imagine what the reaction would be then - from the fans as well as here on jsp.
now i'm not saying it's exactly the same but the line between what's considered to be "political" and what's not seems to be quite arbitrary and rather dependent on who feels offended and complains about it than how "bad" the offence actually is.
at the very least it's safe to assume that ppl who label or even think the palestinian flags are "pure provocation" either know nothing about celtic's history or ignore it on purpose.
also, whatever you think about "political protest" being acceptable in a football stadium or not, fact is that the world is largely looking away when it comes to israel's crimes against the palestinians and bringing attention to that does not HURT anyone...

You're on a whole new level of stupid, holy shit. Great comparison m8, message chelsea11 I'm sure you two could have wonderful conversations for hours on end.
maybe you could elaborate on why this is so "stupid" instead of resorting to ad hominem. why do you consider his point invalid?
