Religious Jews used to talk about secular Jews as "captured babies": not heretics, just ignorant. Their inability to accept that some people have some religious knowledge and choose differently is staggering.
Are we really like that? Do others really see us like that?

You can call it Brewski only if it is from the region of Brewsk. Otherwise it is just a bubbly social media platform

Why? not because of crowd trouble. Who were we supposedly threatening, the 3 people in the UK who watch basketball? Not because we are racist or worst than other European away fans in the streets of London. Just becasue we are Israelis. UK media didn't care back then and it does not care now.

My team, Hapoel, which are anti-racist (and more importantly: anti Maccabi) came to play in the UK 2 years ago. It was against the London Lions in the Basketball Eurocup. A year before that, we took 1,500 away fans to London, but this time we could not as the match was played behind closed doors.
