There have been many great Hebrew athletes. Here, I made a list:
1. Abe Saperstein (basketball-ish)
2. Metsfanmax (fantasy baseball)
We've also got Sandy Koufax.
...That's about it.

Last week FIFA issued a statement on behalf of Mr Blatter stating "any member association that is fulfilling its statutory duties should not be suspended. This would apply to the Israeli Football Association as long as they fulfil such duties".
"We will not allow for Israel to be presented as a country which violated the agreements which it signed, and we will do all in our power to prevent any kind of ban," said the Chairman of the Israeli Football Association Ofer Eini, in comments to the Jerusalem Post.
"I certainly expect the FIFA president to speak out loud and clear on this matter and to prevent this malicious move," he added.
The Palestinian national team competes in the Asian Football Confederation, and qualified for the Asia Cup for the first time earlier this year.
Israel began competing in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) in 1954 despite significant opposition from some existing members.
A number of Muslim states refused to play against the new national side, which culminated in the bizarre spectacle of the 1958 World Cup qualifying stage for Asia and Africa - won by Israel without playing a single game.
FIFA, determined to avoid the embarrassment of a country qualifying for the fledgling international tournament without kicking a ball, arranged play-off with Wales.
Israel duly lost the two-legged tie, suffering 2-0 defeats at home and away.
Six years later, Israel hosted and won the 1964 AFC Asian Cup, which remains the country's sole international football trophy.
However, the achievement was arguably undermined by the pre-tournament withdrawal of 11 of the 16 intended participating countries.
Israel triumphed with just three wins, against India, South Korea and Hong Kong.
Israeli clubs began taking part in European club competitions in 1991 and its football association became full UEFA members in 1994 - having famously beaten France in a 1993 World Cup qualifier.
Its membership continues to represent an anomaly in international football, and was cited by some as a justification for Australia's switch from the Oceania Football Confederation to the AFC in 2006.
But if Israel's elite footballers have suffered as a result of the country's complex history, they are unlikely to gain much sympathy from their Palestinian counterparts.
It was only following the Oslo Accords in 1998 that the Palestinian football side was able to join FIFA, when it joined the likes of England, Wales and Scotland as one of the few non-sovereign states granted national team status.

Jewish Noam Chomsky, a signatory to the FIFA letter, is a "Nazi Jew Hater" according to tzor.

You must have missed me saying "conspiracy".
Masons on the other hand.

The blind Force of the people is a Force that must be economized, and also managed, as the blind Force of steam, lifting the ponderous iron arms and turning the large wheel, is made to bore and rifle the cannon and to weave the most delicate lace.
That force must be limited,restrained,conveyed by distribution into different channels, and by round about courses, to outlets, whence it is to issue as the law, action, and decision of the State, as the wise old Egyptian kings conveyed on different canals, by subdivision, the swelling waters of the Nile, and compelled them to fertilize and not devestate the land.
The rough Ashlar is the People, as a mass, rude and unorganized. The perfect Ashlar, or cubical stone, symbol of perfection, is the State, the rulers deriving their powers from the consent of the governed.
Looks like they think they are smarter then you or I.

Its like a person claiming to kill someone and I'm restating it. Is every Mason bad? No. Are there some that are? Obviously. If your to stupid to understand its OK. You tell me then what are your views and knowledge of Masonry. Maybe you can make an educated rebuttal stating facts. I would encourage it. I've done just that. I suppose Freemasons haven't done anything in the last 300 years to guide or push humanity along right?
They are just a good ol boys club. Don't worry nothing to see here.
The only time the force is strong is when its in your mother and she's blindfolded.
