Old and busted: Palestinian messy
New hotness; Palestinian Messi.

Yes, 10-year-old Rashed Al Hajjawi definitely has mad skills, but it seems to me to be a cynical move to dub him the “Palestinian Messi” when he was born in Norway. Even if his parents are from Israel or the areas under palestinian control, why not then call him the “Arab Messi”?
In proof this is already being politicized, the following article appears on JuveFC, described as Juventus news in English “made by Juve fans, for Juve fans.”
This news and story brings me great joy to come upon and share. For it is that rarest of things, a true gem in the mega-rough. And a welcome opportunity to mention Palestine absent of a deep and passionate focus on the steady destruction of their homes, torture and killing of their men, women and children and theft of their land. A story which warms the heart as well as excites the mind, though to be fair, we will assuredly have to wait a decade before this particular seed truly blossoms…
Rashed Al Hajjawi, a palestinian lad of 10 years of age born in Norway, first came to light a few years back when youtube videos of his startling talents began doing the rounds.
Blessed not only with the gift of life cruelly stolen from hundreds of thousands of his kinsmen by the Zionist plague, but also, sublime talent on the ball.
