Israel and Lebonan

If you believe everything you watch on the news then I recommend you to watch this documentary about the conflicts between Israel and Palenstine in the region and it also talks about why American media sympathizes with Israel.

Revealed: The disgusting abuse that sparked Zidane's fury

Daily Mail: It is the question on every football fan's lips. What did the Italian footballer say to prompt Zinedine Zidane's shocking headbutt in the closing moments of Sunday's World Cup final?

The answer, it has emerged, was a vile stream of racial and personal abuse.

First Marco Matterazzi called the French star the Italian equivalent of 'n*****', and then insulted both his mother and his Muslim background by saying he is the 'son of a terrorist whore.

Italy won :(

They didn't deserve it, France should have won...

Here is a video dedicated to a great player Zidane, I don't know why he did that, I'm Shocked. What he did tonight doesn't change anything, he's still a legend.

Update: watch this Materazzi video I found, it shows his previouse work on other players
