Banned championship named after arch-terrorist moved outside of Jerusalem
Headline: “Repeat raffle for the 24th Prince of Martyrs Khalil Al-Wazir Abu Jihad Championship”
“Yesterday (Monday) [May 7, 2018], a repeat raffle was held for the 24th Prince of Martyrs (Shahids) Khalil Al-Wazir Abu Jihad Football Championship (i.e., terrorist, responsible for murder of 125), which has been organized by the Jerusalem Al-Ansar Club since 1995…
This was after it was decided to transfer the championship to a playing field in Qalandiya due to the arbitrary decision of Israeli Minister of Public Security [Gilad Erdan], who banned holding the championship last Friday at the playing field of the Silwan Junior High School or any playing field within what is called ‘the Jerusalem Municipality borders’… The matches of groups one and three will be held at 8:00 a.m., and the matches in groups two and four will begin immediately after Friday prayers.”
