Beitar Jerusalem FC Maintains No-Arabs Policy

JERUSALEM, ISRAEL - OCTOBER 22: (ISRAEL OUT) Young Beitar Jerusalem fans watch their team's 3-0 victory over Maccabi Herzliya on Sunday evening October 22, 2006 at their home ground of Teddy Stadium in Jerusalem. Beitar Jerusalem FC was founded in the 1930's by the right-wing Revisionist Zionist movement, which later formed the Israeli Likud political party, during the British Mandate rule over Palestine. True to its right-wing roots, the team is the only one in the Israeli league to have never had an Arab player. A recent attempt by the club's owner, Russian-Israeli billionaire Arkadi Gaidamak, to sign an Arab player was opposed by Beitar supporters, who have been accused of being racist.
