RIGHT NOW: Activists in Toronto unfurl a banner urging @FIFAcom to kick Israel out. Banner also points to the abduction of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and Palestinian football player Natalie Abu Dayyeh.
Ahead of today’s first World Cup game, Bosnian legend Edin Dzeko writes a letter to the children of Bosnia, reflecting on what it meant to survive war as a child and on the horrors still unfolding in the world today:
“In the end, we survived. Looking back, I’m amazed at how strong we were. We were just little kids. But there was no point to the war. All those innocent people killed, and for what? For money. Power. Ego. For nothing. When there is war on the news today, I feel sick. I don’t want to see it anywhere. For some reason, adults never learn.”

@Fenerbahhcem:
Bosnia and Herzegovina fans chanting in support of Palestine
denijaljegic:
Bosnian solidarity with Palestine never received much international attention. In fact, too many Western “leftists” & anti-imperialists deny our genocide & glorify those who massacred us with Israeli weapons. I am glad that Bosnians will not shut up about Palestine
@danpjsheehan:
Get fucked, you genocidal ghouls.
@ISRAELFA:
The fact that the match will not be played in Dublin does not change our ambition to win. @IrelandFootball @IrishFA See you have been warned.
@canadiancynic.bsky.social:
Apparently, Canada is playing its first World Cup match this afternoon, which inspires me to post that I will not be watching and I don’t give the slightest fuck who wins.
Fuck the World Cup and everything associated with it.
And fuck FIFA.
