Pep Guardiola Launches New Campaign for Gaza, Ignorning Hamas Terror
Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Spanish football coach Pep Guardiola has launched a new propaganda campaign for Gaza, partnering with the UN agency UNRWA. In a video, Guardiola delivers a one-sided monologue stating, "They are not just dead. They are people who were killed. They are not numbers, they are alive, each one has a name, a face, and a family." The article criticizes Guardiola for completely ignoring the Hamas terror attacks of October 7th, the subsequent massacre, and the ongoing hostage crisis.

Guardiola's decision to lend his voice and image to UNRWA has sparked significant anger, particularly as the agency has faced accusations of its employees being involved in terrorist organizations and complicity in the October 7th events. Many sports fans and supporters of Israel worldwide have labeled his move as "pure hypocrisy."

Critics argue that Guardiola's attempt to present a "humanitarian concern" under the auspices of UNRWA directly supports the narrative of terrorism. The article concludes by stating that Guardiola once again proves that when it comes to Israel, facts and truth are set aside for political manifestos, and instead of focusing on sports, he chooses to echo propaganda that serves terrorists.
