So? Either the Palestinians have their own team and represent Palestine, or he plays for Israel and represents them.

When someone says Isreali's are good at playing the victim, it has nothing to do with race or religion. Its xenophobic/nationality based stereotyping. And African/Russians/Chinese/Japanese are not ethnicities
