Watch Maradona "Viva Palestine" Video



The big dog of Argentina soccer will be calling the UAE his home for some time as he will he the coach for a local club there. On one of his first nights, greeted by fans and youngsters, he poses for pictures. He seems to be getting comfortable and getting to know both the field and the people.

Then someone comes with a Palestinian traditional scarf "kafiya", he wears it, and declares "Viva Palestina". This is definitely heart warming to see for many followers of this iconic soccer payer turned coach.

Sure, I still remember his pictures near the wall near Al Aqsa Mosque when he was visiting Israel in the early 90s. Maybe he is not a bit more mature and ready to tell the truth. Maybe we Palestinians have changes and made it easier for public figure to declare their support to our cause.
