Summer signing for Tottenham In relation to the present situation between Israel and Palestine, Manor Solomon has stirred much debate with a number of posts on his Instagram account.
Over 500 innocent citizens, mostly physicians, women, and children, were killed in a hospital bombing in Palestine yesterday night, shocking the entire world just days after Israel had threatened to target hospitals.
However, Solomon’s essay has generated a lot of controversy because he charged Hamas with bombing its own people and blamed Israel for it.
He shared a photo of the explosion along with a statement from the Israeli military that appeared to indicate that a Palestinian resistance group’s attempted rocket launch was what caused the explosion at the Al Ahli hospital.
In the posts that followed, he continued to express his strong support for the Israeli government in a very public manner.
Fans were quick to call out the irony in this because some Muslim players had already been suspended by their clubs for standing up for the Palestinian people against the aggression.
A fan demanded that Spurs cut the player from the team in a post on the social media platform X.
I’m expecting Spurs to drop him from the squad 👍 pic.twitter.com/XkKWTyCQbR

Others brought up the apparent disparity in treatment between gamers who favor Israel and those who support Palestine in the response to their posts.
🚨🚨 Can/will Tottenham FC suspend Manor Solomon, after this post, as Nice and Mainz did with Atal and El Ghazi?
I’m genuinely interested in whether we will lose a player or not, I’m in no way condoning or supporting either side may I add. #manorsolomon #Spurs pic.twitter.com/2auZ81OgQb

Both Youcef Atal and Anwar El Ghazi have been suspended by their clubs for online activism on behalf of Palestine.
Manor Solomon frequently publishes propaganda on his social media, making fun of the hospital attack among other things. Nothing. Nothing from Zinchenko.
But it’s “freedom of speech”…

Anwar El Ghazi, a former player for Aston Villa and Everton, is the newest player to receive a suspension for his Instagram post supporting Palestine.
In a similar vein, Bayern Munich released a statement denouncing their player Noussair Mazraoui’s pro-Palestine post and urging an investigation.
Truth Be Told:
Numerous innocent people have died as a result of the violence so far. How many more individuals need to perish? Let’s hope for world peace and the triumph of mankind!
