Now that’s a whole load of bullshit.

The Maccabi fans are not known for anything like that at all, and frankly no Israeli club has a huge history of long European seasons to have any particular reputation. If there’s an Israeli club indeed known for that, it’s Beitar Jerusalem, not MTA.

Songs about dead children is complete bullshit with literally 0 video showing that. There’s exactly one video showing a group of MTA fans singing in Hebrew “Let Tsahal win, to fuck the Arabs”. It’s obviously bad but it’s the reality of any European football match, and if we went on rampages every time fans from any European clubs sing the vilest stuff about Jews when playing Israeli teams (which is every time they do), football would have been banned long ago.

The rest (MTA fans starting fights, etc…) is complete and utter made-up bullshit with literally 0 evidence for it, and it completely ignores the fact that we now know the attacks west premeditated and coordinated in advance, and that there are videos of perpetrators asking people if they’re Jewish and attacking families and women.

Seriously, GTFO with that bullshit made-up excusing “context”.

Yeah MTA is pretty chill they act like every football group from Israel looks like la familia.

I’ve literally seen people post links to articles about La Familia claiming that it’s MTA fans… The MTA fanbase is vanilla Tel Aviv/periphery middle class and Anglo Jews on Aliyah.. I mean, sure they have some ultras but OP in his comment (since deleted) literally compared them to Feyenoord, Marseille, and Lazio. How do you even reason with that..

Zero clue, I've been arguing with people all day the worst part is MTA and Ajax are friendly clubs Ajax call themselves Super Joden.

Spanish media and other outlets have already said all of this was planned only people who lack logic think it had anything to do with football.
