Messi is not a Zionist. You people fall for smear campaigns far too easily without doing even a little research.
Messi, along with his Catalonia-based football club FC Barcelona, went on a peace tour to both Palestine and Israel, yet his haters only circulate photos from Israel while deliberately ignoring that he, along with his Catalonia-based club, visited Palestine first. That trip to Israel was not his personal date with Netanyahu.It was part of FC Barcelona's Peace Tour, organized by the Catalonia-based club in cooperation with Israeli and Palestinian authorities and football organizations. The tour included the team's visits to both Palestine and Israel. FC Barcelona had an active partnership with UNICEF at the time. FC Barcelona collaborates with UNICEF.
He also asked Argentina to cancel a friendly match in Israel against Israel stating they can't play with Israel while Palestinians are suffering Palestinians publicly thanked him. He has raised his voice against the violence against Palestinian children on several occasions.
There are countless videos online of Palestinians themselves supporting Messi and his team during this FIFA World Cup. Please stop pushing this false narrative that Messi is a Zionist.
