Israel Parliament demands non-admission of Iran to the World Cup 2006

As APA reports, Secretary of Sport Commission of Knesset Gilead Arden regarded anti-Jewish statements of Iranian president as Iran’s exceeding civil measures in the letter. The letter also reads that by the German laws, "Denying Holocaust" is a crime.

It should be noted that England politicians also demanded Iran team not to be admitted to the World Cup some time ago. Their dissatisfaction is because of Iran's implementing nuclear program. English think that, removal of Iranian national team from the World Cup would be a clear and unambiguous signal to the Iranian government.
