As a result, Palestine flags are frequently waved at sporting events. However, some people have found a problem with this.

Football and politics are inextricably linked, as Humza Yousaf and Celtic demonstrate. The current First Minister of Scotland has never hidden his admiration for the club, and he recently discussed his fellow fans’ support for the Palestinian cause.
During an appearance on ‘The Rest is Politics’ podcast, Yousaf expressed his thoughts on the issue: “In terms of the waving of flags, to me, first of all, it’s barely the most important issue in the Israel/Gaza (conflict)”, he said.

“My general impression has been, look, if people want to show solidarity by waving flags, we should let them just wave flags, but it’s up to the club what it decides to do.”

It’s strange to think that some people have a problem with fans simply waving a certain flag at a football game. It has no negative impact on anyone, and in the case of Palestine, it demonstrates solidarity for a cause that would otherwise be overlooked.
