Ronaldo meets President of Israel in Sao Paulo

Posted November 13, 2009

The President of Israel, Shimon Peres was in Brazil yesterday and who did he want to meet? None other than the Phenomenon. The pair met before in 2005 and as a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN, Ronaldo was again asked to accompany the Israeli President.

The pair exchanged jersey’s and Peres complimented Ronaldo on his last visit.

“I remember your visit to Israel. I had never seen children with such bright eyes, looking up at you. Football has no nation or religion. You are a great person for your talent and personality. You represent peace”, said Peres to Ronaldo.

In response, Ronaldo siad that he is ready to go back to the region of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to contribute to peace process.

“For me, it is an honor. I have been to both sides to convey a message of peace, and I will make another visit. It is worth recalling in Sao Paulo. I live in a neighborhood known to be a Jewish inhabited,” said Ronaldo.

    Ayman,he is a world known player,should he say “Oh no, I don’t want to meet Peres?”Peres invited Ronaldo to visit Israel again, and Ronaldo spoked of the time when he visited both sides,Israel and Palestine,he said this to Peres and then accepted to go again to the Near East.I guess Ronaldo will visit both sides again,not only Israel,like he did in 2005.
    I think Peres wanted to meet Ronaldo because there will be this peace game between Flamengo and Corinthians in Palestine (was 15.September,but Ronaldo was injured). I can remember when this game was announced to take place in Palestine Israel criticised the clubs and said they should also play in Israel,they should do 2 games. But the clubs refused and I guess therefore Peres invited Ronaldo to visit Israel. But Ronaldo was very diplomatic and said what an honour it was to go to Israel AND Palestine. I think it’s clear for Ronaldo and his staff that Peres inivited him because of this peace game which will take place in Palestine. At least I think this is the reason and therefore I think Ronaldo will visit both sides like he did in 2005.

    Hitler was right when he said “i left small no of jews alive just so that people know y i killed them”….

    In case ur not jewish,then i would be honord to spit on ur face…coz u dont have any qualities or principles!

    Wha a piece of shit..

  8. I am with Big Daddy on November 14th, 2009 9:29 am

    Jews are the core of all evil.
    They created this world.
    All the tryna make is money money money.

    Hitler knew that the world wouldnt be free if we didnt throw the Jews in the oven. We are still not free.

    And Ronaldo, you just lost a fan shaking this guys hand you fat bastard. I feel stabbed in the back. As the guy above said “shaking hand with a war criminal”

  9. yggdrasil on November 14th, 2009 11:40 am

    you guys have so much racial hatrid it is almost unhealthy, i feel ashamed to share my interest in ronaldo with neanderthal people like you. defending nazi germany, defending hitler and generalizing millions of different people. i’m glad i have not hatrid towards anyone.
    go ahead and swear some more.

  10. badboy on November 14th, 2009 12:14 pm

    It’s doesn’t matter what am i.I know some jews and they are people like us(i don’t include Big Daddy or other haters cause they are better than you suckers)
    If i meet you some of you haters(idiots)i would be glad to show you how it works(putting in the oven)
    That’s what hittler is made is the biggest crime versus mankind,so shut your stupid mouth and don’t speak about stuff which you don’t realize.
    If you want to tell me more,you can make it personally(i’m travelling a lot)

  11. Alex on November 14th, 2009 1:30 pm

    U people r sick, I have never heard such open support 4 Hitler , one of the most evil people of all time, who committed one of the most evil acts in history. Being Jewish is a religion not like they r a different species. I don’t know what country ur from, but not all Americans r ignorant and we realize how evil Hitler was. And we helped end him.

  12. Rona9ldo on November 14th, 2009 2:36 pm

    He shouldn’t have done that

  13. I am with Big Daddy on November 14th, 2009 2:36 pm

    What Hitler did is an evil act.
    But there is worse.
    Rwanda, Stalin and the russians.
    Hiroshima, George W Bush.

    These are all worse. But since the JeWs.. oooh the lovely jews got killed its really really sad.

    Just look at the Israel situation. And USA is supporting them.

    I wish hitler can come back and take out all the evil jews from here.

    When you are nice, you be treated nice. When you are evil (jew) you be treated evil.

    I have friends from all over the world. Im not racist, but JEWS ARE GROSS!!!!

    If you marry a jew, you have to convert to their religion. Its not even a religion its a group.
    Who says “join us.. join us”

  14. uniquespecialist on November 14th, 2009 3:38 pm

    ^ you aree quite clearly racist against jewish people. how can you deny that, by saying that, not only do you look very racist (which you are) but you also seem very stupid as you clearly do not know what the term racist means, otherwise you would not try to deny the fact that you are. like others have said, you are sick. take your hatrid elsewhere.

  15. nameless on November 14th, 2009 8:41 pm

    It’s unbelievable how much hate and nonsense talk a single handshake can cause in this forum!!! Are some of you guys crazy?!?!?! How can you defend this devil in person,Hitler,for God’s sake??!?!?!!!!??! People like Hitler and like some of the guys here are the reason why there is so much evil going around in the world!!! I’m sure I know more than some of you guys what Hitler really did! You know I live in Germany (but I’m not a german) and we had – again and again – to learn in school everything about Hitler and what he did to the jewish people (and homosexuals and handicapped people!),and it’s one of the most inhuman and really really scary crimes against the mankind!!!
    Once we were in one of this “camps” where the jewish had to live and work until they were killed,and we were in one of this “houses” where they slept and I never felt like this before and after! It was like I could feel the pain but it was too much for me and I couldn’t really breathe.It’s unbelievable how small this “house” was and how many people had to sleep there without anything,and there was just little space between the bed floors,it must have been very difficult to go in there! And then we saw the “shower cabins” where the jewish were killed with gas.It sounds maybe weird but it was like you could feel the souls of these killed people!!!

    In Germany there are still guys who admire Hitler (but it’s a minority,most of the germans are embarrassed with Hitler) and these idiots are the reason why I don’t go to some places in the town where I live,because there live some of these evil persons.I’m sometimes afraid because of my family and myself,therefore it’s very important to avoid some places! They are the real evil like Hitler was and you really shouldn’t defend these sons and daughters of the devil himself!I’m glad Ronaldo will go to the Near East again and try to send a message of peace! You shouldn’t criticise Ronaldo because unlike you, he wants to change something to the best,even he can’t do much more than to send a message of peace in doing this peace-game over there!

  16. Bigdaddy on November 15th, 2009 1:01 am

    …it seems everyone is looking for a reason to switch the focuspoint from the Jewish to Hitler!!

    Why didnt u ask this ?…why are the jews wha hitler hated the most!…is there a reason??! We all know that Hitler was evil but tha wasnt my point!…

    ..So what the jews actually did in palastine was nothin similar to wha hitler did??! is that wha you lot tryin say?!Then u really need get ur facts right! 1st of all there came down and occupied part of a country that neva belonged to them in the 1st place & 2nd of all theyv killed thousands of inncoenets and civilians all those years & u feel pitty for them??? …where r the principles now? or does it only apply on the jews!

    Evil always gets treated with another evil…
    Hitler understood that well.

    In the end, we surely call for peace but when u see wha jews do in palastine , as a human been ur forced to hate them! otherwise u dont have a heart.

  17. Bigdaddy on November 15th, 2009 1:09 am

    However,the evil still exisits!

    Hitler doesnt deserve all the blame..USA has to have its share as well… All the killing in Iraq just to get oil in the cover of lookin for nuclear weapons!? i wont blame the whole USA…because i knw theres a big number of jews who make decisions in USA goverment..

  18. Alex on November 15th, 2009 2:18 am

    Yeah cause bush was a Jew. More like the opposite.anyway u can’t hate all Jews 4 the acts of a few of them, just like Americans hating Muslims because of a few extremists.

  19. chitta on November 15th, 2009 4:40 am

    First of all i am a proud Jew and a proud Israeli citizen.
    second- Hitler could rise because their were ignorant people/ week people- that saw their salvation in giving the power to a mad man.
    They are all ashamed now .
    It’s sad to see that its steal exist in the world.
    Chickens like bigdaddy should be careful of what you write on the net. We can find you and hunt you like dog so you better watch out.
    I invite you to Israel for a small talk about the holocaust and our history.
    Their were 6 million Jews that murderd in World War 2. Mostly women and kids. We didn’t have any country than and we got butchered like animals. Without any reason. Some of my nearest family was there too
    Nobody can do it to us again..
    Never the less, we Israeli’s don’t believe in violent and we all wont peace and respect with all of our neighbors. .The Palestinian issue is more complicated than you all think but i can assure you that we all wont to solve it asap.
    As for Ronaldo- i am a fan of him since 1994
    I m glad he is behaving with responsibility and with elegancy like he should and knows best.
    Hopefully he makes last big effort to reach his pick once more and to give the world the last proof of his greatness.
    Once a champion always a champion.
    go brasil go fennomano.

    love ronaldo ~ …hate israel

  21. Bigdaddy on November 15th, 2009 6:20 am

    Do u really know wha your on about??!

    Hunt me like a dog?!..well you are actually the dog & blind as well.

    So does it mean because 6 million were killed,then you tryin do the same to other innocent people?! is tha wha relegion stands for? & then u start acting as if ur a peace maker!

    Why do u think jews didnt have homes!? there were never been accepted in any society! You should read ur history properly..

    Your history is full of people breaching laws and endless corruption stories! Im sorry but even a dog is loyal! whereas the jews r not!

    God has send you a holy book to follow and youve corrupted that as well! Your simply pathetic people with no principles at all!

    you come down to a land that does not belong to you & state that your lookin for peace with neighbours?! … wha sort of animals r u ?! you kill kids n women, destory houses & then recall for peace?! Go to hell with ur nonsense words.

    Chiita shit! dat looks beta

  22. badboy on November 15th, 2009 11:59 am

    I asking you kindly to stop this crazy shit.
    Its obvious!Everyone has his own beliefs.There is good and bad people everywhere.I don’t believe that somewhere the people are only of one side.But there is some fact that everyone should realize.If we don’t wonna be animals,we have to accept anyone if he or them deserve it.
    I’m agree with Bigdaddy about Bush,Stalin and etc,but that’s not an apology for Hitler.
    Every race have right to live and not to be disturbed.That’s it.Ronaldo is great man about that attention to help the world peace

  23. nameless on November 15th, 2009 1:40 pm

    Bigdaddy, it’s not like I wouldn’t know that jewish people occupied Palestine which was totally wrong to do so,and I know the israelian government does a lot of mistakes regarding palestinian people,but also the palestinian people don’t do right if they take revenge e.g. in suicide-bombing and kill not guilty persons. I guess the whole world knows about the fact israelians got the land of palestines and caused the Near East problem,but what should people do now? Is it right to kill each other,and if yes,when will it stop? I don’t think palestinian people have any chance to get their land back,it’s so much time gone and Israel got a lot of support in the world.I guess people of both sides should make a compromise to offer their children and grandchildren a better life, especially on the palestinian side! If I would live in Palestine I would want to stop this crazy war just to give my children and grandchildren the possibilty of a normal life and peace. I guess both sides should really forget about some of their demandings and make a compromise and the israelian government should apologise to palestinian people because of what they did to them,like germans apologised for killing 6 millions people.These are things which happened and we can’t turn back the time to make it unhappen,so therefore is it for me very important to apologise,even you can’t change anything of what happened in the history. But all the things happened in the Near East doesn’t justify what Hitler did to jewish people! You can’t say Hitler was right to do so! It’s never right to try to kill an ethnic group! That’s insane! If people think like this,nothing will ever change!It will get more worse and I don’t want the world to get more evil than today! One day we will maybe have the World War III if we don’t sit at a table and REALLY try to solve problems!!! In the history people hated jewish people,now they also hate muslims,what’s next?! You can’t hate an ethnic group just because a part of this group made mistakes?! It’s really important to not make everybody responsible for the mistakes of a part of the group!

  24. dear chitta on November 15th, 2009 6:32 pm

    chitta, im unhappy to use this lovely site to tell everyone how jews are bad. but jews cant live in peace,they want love to be a shit,they love to hate.

    anyway idiots,as much as u try to defend ur self & as much as u try to clean ur ugly face,,, dont lie to ur self & to others. coz u know better than me how bad u r inside outside.

    all jews(Zionist) are not welcome in our planet,,, god bless u palastine.

    Nameless… Do u call wha israel does in palastine((mistakes)), i dont think we still in school…they call it ((crimes))….

    You think revange just appears out of nothing??!
    Would you be quite if someone comes down kills your mother,dad,brothers n sisters???!

    If you agree that they have to make a deal with Israel…Why didnt your country offer them part of ur land?!

    We all know preperly where it ends,theyve done too much killin in that country that every lil kid gets raised up with that hate in his heart towards jewish! They didnt build it,its the jews!
    It only ends when Israel (black spot) is out of that place!

    The only thing palastines have is stones! thats all wha the defend themselves with in front of the latest weapons with israel! Do u call that fair?!

    You have to always put ur self in their shoes before judgin on things…

    You cant compare muslim or christians to Jews…they totally different and much beta of people n relegion!…who do u think is tryin pollute other relegions reputations other dan the jews?! All the media in the world is controlled by the Jews..

    Simple example..when israel kills kids n civilians its called self defence???! but when its a muslim group its Terrorism??!

    Wake up people! if people dont leave their eyes open to the truth in this world no peace will ever exisit..

  27. nameless on November 16th, 2009 12:12 am

    Bigdaddy,you have so much hate you don’t understand what I said! First: I’m also a muslim and don’t start to tell me what is going on in the world regarding muslims and what palestinians suffer sand had to suffer!!! You really make me angry!! Why didn’t you answer my question???!!! When will this crazy killing each other will end?!?!?! Do you really think it’s the better way to try to kill israelis and then the palestinian people will get their land back?!?!?! Are you so fulfilled with hate that you can’t see the truth?! T

  28. nameless on November 16th, 2009 12:20 am

    The truth is this war is hopeless,palestinian people WILL NEVER EVER GET BACK WHAT ISRAELIS HAS STOLEN FROM THEM! That’s a fact!!! Therefore it’s more than insane to continue with this war,even I CAN UNDERSTAND THE HATE AND STRONG FEELINGS OF THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE! But what both sides do now,will never ever result in a better life for palestinians, therefore it’s very very very important to make compromises even if this is the most difficult thing for the palestinian people!!! But it’s the only chance for their children’s future,if they don’t want their children to live and die in a war!!! And again,don’t talk like you know everything what’s going on in the world reagrding palestinian people and muslims in general!!!

  29. nameless on November 16th, 2009 12:28 am

    “Why didnt your country offer them part of ur land?!”

    If I would rule my country,believe me,I would be the first one to give the palestinian people a part of my land,just to end this crazy war and give the palestinians the possibilty of a normal life without any war in front of their houses!

  30. Bigdaddy on November 16th, 2009 1:50 am

    Seems like theres many things u wont understand Nameless… there is no comprimise when it comes to relegion & so is land.

    Palestines r far away from thinkin of givin their land to anyone..there is simply no comprimise..Israel did enuf killin that built a stonger palastines society and more stuborn & proud people..

    This is life…if u dont ave anythin to fight for then whats the use of living.

    “Why didnt your country offer them part of ur land?!” (i was talkin abt jews)

    However its been mentioned and im sure 110% that one day jews will be kicked out of Palastine! & even the jews believe that coz its mentioned in their book.

  31. Bigdaddy on November 16th, 2009 2:04 am

    Nameless Im sorry to say that… but its really bad to see muslims who see their brothers n sisters killed out there & they dont feel any anger!Im ashamed to hear this from u! dont piss me off with ur nonsence

    And it seems u dont know ur relegion well…
    We always call for peace & never attack anyone,but if there is no other option,then Jihad is the solution to call for our rights!

    Dont tell me livin in Germany has westernised u that much that uve forget ur relgion principeles!
    We live for peace & god has order that for sure with all different civilisations,but when others breach the agreements & never keep promises like jews then you cant jst stay still!

    Wheres your love to ur deen?Do u simply think that after makin peace with Israel they will be satisified with their share! That neva happened n neva will…y do u think their attackin lebnon?They neva had enuf!

    Just wake up! U need open ur eyes

  32. Bigdaddy on November 16th, 2009 2:10 am

    n by the way ,it has to be clear that i dont have hate to all jews, because in every bad there is the good.

    But i do have extreme hate to those who r involved in these crimes including Hitler,Shimon Peres,bush,etc..

  33. Shiva Srinivasan on November 16th, 2009 3:04 am

    I don’t know about wheither jews aare evvil not-but you damm idiot don’t come to Ronaldo fan site and abuse the Fenomeno!!!
    You can keep your prejudices to sites that encourage and appreciate them-which to be honest is waste of time cause at the end of the day we all trying to live-Violence is there everywhere so is hate but you don’t go around spreading it…
    And if Ronaldo lost fans doing something that wouls make innocents smile then these fans are fans well lost…

  34. Bigdaddy on November 16th, 2009 3:39 am

    This topic is already ova…dont u thnik u decided to show up bit late! ..Thick

  35. nameless on November 16th, 2009 1:04 pm

    Bigdaddy,unlike you I am a muslim who love the mankind,doesn’t matter which religion everybody belongs,and unlike you I don’t want muslims to suffer and die and see their children dying! I’m very realistic,I’m sure palestinian people will NEVER EVER get their land back,it’s time to wake up and stop this nonsense killing of each other! A compromise is the only chance to get a better life for palestinians,even if this is the most difficult thing to do for them! I’m more than sure especially palestinian mothers don’t want their children to die in front of their eyes anymore.Palestinian and isrealian people have to make a deal,otherwise the dying of children in front of their mothers won’t end!!! And as a muslim I don’t want people,especially children,to suffer so much and die! I’m more than sure even Allah doesn’t want this! And don’t tell me I wouldn’t understand much about muslims suffering! I get my informations,I am a muslim and I know some palestinian guys here and believe me, they don’t want this war anymore,even they are very furious about Israel but even they know palestinian people will never ever get their land back,because there is so much time passed and Israel has too much support in the world! The world will never ever watch israelian people get kicked out of Israel,therefore I’m convinced the only chance is to make a compromise to end the killing of children! I would like Israel to give palestinian people a part of their land. But I know Israel doesn’t want to do it. But that’s what I meant with compromise,Israel has to give at least a part of the country and palestinian people should accept they can’t get the whole country back and therefore they should sit at a table and make a compromise.And I demand the whole world,especially the USA and Europe to do a lot of pressure on Israel so they will accept this deal! I know it’s very hard to get Israel to this point but it’s worth to try it again and again,especially the USA and Europe should try!!! This is a better solution, if it comes to this point one day,than to try to kill all israelian people or to kick them out of Israel.That won’t work,but the compromise I was talking would work better if the whole world would pressure Israel enough! It’s a long way to go,I know,but if one day,the western world really starts to pressure Israel seriously I think things will change, because until today the western world always was very careful with Israel because of the Holocaust,but this has to change and I’m sure one day it will change,and only then a compromsie like I mentioned before could be a reality! But it depends on the western world and there we people should do pressure to change their attitude towards Israel!
