In the Israel in Arabic Facebook page, from Israel's Foreign Ministry, the State of Israel wishes luck to the Saudi, Egyptian and Moroccan soccer teams in the World Cup.
A few Arabs appreciate the well-wishes, but most do not.
One said, "Know, entity, that we in Iraq will not rest until we uproot the last Zionist from the land of Palestine."
Another wrote that the well-wishes were a "blatant lie" hiding Israel's real hidden intentions of marketing its presence in the region to legitimize it. He said that "to establish a relationship with you is unacceptable and we know for sure that you do not recognize our children and do not love Islam and you have racism towards the Arabs."
But another wrote, "Thank you 'Israel speaks Arabic' for your support of Arab participation in World Cup ... God wants security and peace in the Arab region and all over the world."
And another attacked the haters: "As I read the comments on this page I notice the extent of violence and massive hatred that constitutes the psychology of Muslim man (especially Arab). If you don't like the page, why do you follow it?
"The root of this schizophrenia, which most Muslims suffer, belongs to the muhammadiyah education prevailing in the Muslim world which includes violence and hatred. Everything is incompatible with [the Muslim man's] opinions and moral values. As long as this massive amount of aggression is a cornerstone of the educational system, then violence, ignorance, and hatred will continue to prevail in Muslim societies."
So far every Arab team that Israel wished the best for has lost their first matches, so I imagine Israel is at fault for that somehow.
