Inter Milan are closing in on the signing of Israel international Anan Khalaily in a transfer that is causing huge controversy.
Some fans and human rights activists believe that Inter are whitewashing both Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people and their apartheid state by buying an Israel international.
Nima Tavallaey conducted three important interviews with Dr. Thair Abu Ras of the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute, Andrew Feinstein who is a former member of the South African parliament for ANC under the leadership of Nelson Mandela, and Palestinian football journalist Bassil Mikdadi from Football Palestine to discuss all aspects of this issue.
