Bnei Sakhnin prove again that Sanity wins

This weekend, Israel Footbal Cup holder beat the team from Beer Sheva 4 goals to 1.

War End Peace

We always hear dictators who call on their people to go to war for peace.

How insane is it for dictatorships to promise their people peace only by winning a war....

Because if they win the war there will be no enemy - hence peace.
But if they lose the war then it is the enemy who prevented peace.

Dictatorships have mastered the art of lying.,,,Supporting them is insanity.

Sane people of the Middle East wake up...End War not Peace.

Peace End War !

Sanity in the Middle East wins 3:0

TEL AVIV, Aug 12 (Reuters) - Israel's Bnei Sakhnin, the first Arab side to play in a UEFA competition, notched a 3-0 home win over Partizani Tirana of Albania in their UEFA Cup second qualifying round first leg clash on Thursday...."This team is making history and I want to be a part of it, that's why I came (to Sakhnin). I think we can go all the way (in the competition)."....

I was in this game and cheered for Sakhnin. This was televised on National TV in Israel and for 90 minutes Jews and Arabs in Israel supported the Arab,Jewish, and Christian players of Sakhin who once again proved us what sanity is.

<>Yet the INSANE keep trying to step on this beautiful flower as Reuters report:
"... Israel's Arabs have long been ostracised by their fellow Arabs from neighbouring countries, most of which do not have diplomatic ties with the Jewish state...."

SANE PEOPLE OF THE MIDDLE EAST UNITE....WE ARE PRACTICING PEACE.

Arab Israel Soccer/Football team represents Israel in Europe

WINNING COEXISTENCE AND MUTUAL RESPECT:
THE SAKHNIN SANE MODEL OF “CHAMPIONS OF PEACE”


Sakhnin – One of the leading Arab cities in Israel that has 22,000 inhabitants and wields a great influence on Arab Israeli society. Arab citizens represent approximately 16% of the country’s population.

The City's official football team – Bnei Sakhnin – was created in 1992 and quickly made its way up league competition until reaching the Premier League for the current 2003-2004 season. The electrified the public by winning the Israel Cup during their FIRST year of play in this top league. They will now represent Israel in UEFA international competition in Europe.

The team has been embraced, supported and cheered by Israeli Arabs and Jews alike, not only because they excellent represent winning capabilities and genuine good sportsmanship, but also due to their clear endorsement of vital social messages: co-existence, tolerance, mutual respect between Jews and Arabs in a troubled region.

Bnei Sakhnin not only talks the talk but walks the walk: The team itself is comprised of 10 Arab players, 8 Jewish players and a healthy mix of 5 foreign players (Brazil, Hungary, Cameroun). No player is cheered for his ethnicity on the playing field; he is cheered for his command of the game.

The Sakhnin team takes to the field to win the game. But win or lose, all of Israel wins because every single game emphasizes the crucial value of coexistence.

The team’s success has commanded the attention and pride of all Israelis, while earning enduring respect from all parts of Israeli society – Jewish and Arab – politicians and businesspeople – so many of whom have rallied around to support and promote the team.
