24/09/2025Following a discussion on the Community forum, and what came out of it, I've come here to make a request to add Palestine 🇵🇸 to the list of VF Nations. It's about time.
Argument 1: If Macau, Taiwan etc... are on VF, there's no reason why Palestine shouldn't be. It's a question of representation.
Argument 2: In the event of conflict between two parties, not allowing one of them to be unrepresented isn't very fair. Question of inclusion.
OK, I've only got two arguments (without giving too much away hahaha)
I know, it's only a game, and Aymeric has a hand in it, he can do what he likes. Although I hope he'll listen to my arguments and allow the clubs that want to represent Palestine to do so.
Thank you in advance for your attention to my request and a very good day to you all ;)

24/09/2025An excellent proposal! Especially as the French government's recognition of the Palestinian state makes it even more meaningful.

24/09/2025PS: History has taught us that not all Germans were Na*i... I say that because I can already see the excuse for "Hamas" arriving as big as a house.
There are sons of bitches everywhere, that's life.

24/09/2025Palestine and Hamas are two different things, you're right to point that out.

27/09/2025And once that's done, what difference will it make to the game?
Because this is a game, isn't it?
Is there a Palestinian team IRL? And Palestinian football clubs? (I should point out that these are real questions, not "bullshit", that's what I'm wondering!
(I'm going to search the net for answers before you do! )

28/09/2025So the "it's only a game" argument is frankly counter-productive, because it's precisely because it's a game that I'm taking the liberty of suggesting it.
And it's not as if Palestine has complete freedom over what it can do in Palestine. Creating football clubs has been the least of their worries for a few years now lol so having a representation on the game seems important to me.
NB: Find out about the creation of the "Palestino" club in Chile, and you'll understand why there are no clubs in Palestine.
If the fact that they don't have an IRL team is an argument, do you want the list of all the "Nations" on VF that don't have IRL clubs?
I have NO problem with these Nations, I just want one more. Palestine.
In a nutshell. Un OUI ou un NON de kan part d'Aymeric ou un Admin, me suffitira ;) c'est qu'un jeu, je survivrai 😉

28/09/2025For the creation of a Palestinian sporting nationality.
And, because it's important to me, New Caledonian nationality would also be appreciated. And, yes, there are clubs 'IRL' (with a league, the 'super league', a New Caledonian cup) that also take part in the OFC Champions League, a national team, a federation and the country is recognised by FIFA. So that's all there is to it ^^

28/09/2025I totally support your idea for New Caledonia ;)
But I opened this topic for Palestine, and I have the impression that we're getting a bit lost by mixing everything up in the same topic, I don't know if you understand what I mean.

28/09/2025Oh no, but I'll just say this quickly, if we each open our own topic for our own country, I don't think we're out of the woods xD
Besides, I know in advance that he won't add New Caledonia, it's a bit of a lost cause. A tiny little island in the middle of nowhere that nobody gives a damn about, except when there are riots or cyclones... well. It's a shame for the islanders, but that's how it often is, we get overlooked a bit ^^.

28/09/2025Let's just say that I think the Palestinians need food and security more than a flag logo on a game like VF, and that's what I'm trying to say here, it's derisory above all! It's like putting flags on town halls, it's basically useless!
But that's my opinion ...

28/09/2025Maybe if people put as much energy into defending their own ideas and opposing the ideas of others the world would be a better place ;)

28/09/2025I'm sorry, but what country doesn't need food and security? It's a bit of a collon mentality, mate! We're so superior that we're going to let a country at war be represented on VF wow... I'm getting better and better hahaha

28/09/2025It's reminiscent of the famous "Finish your plate, think of the children who have nothing to eat". It's a sanctimonious statement with flawed reasoning. Finishing your plate has never helped feed children who don't have enough to eat.
Here, it's the same thing: wanting a sporting nationality to appear on a game won't help the Palestinians to live in peace, in a wonderful world. Well, once we have the information...

28/09/2025The aim here is just to get Palestine into the VF federations, as is the case for Macao, which I'm not sure is known by large numbers in this community.

28/09/2025I understood the aim and it's the same when I talk about New Caledonia. Simply to add, if the boss of the game so wishes, other sporting nationalities. Anyway, it's not that important either.

28/09/2025At the end of the day you're all of the same opinion, just a different way of looking at the current mess.

28/09/2025I've finished my whole plate!
Thank you 🥰
Every country should have food and be safe, let's start with us France!
And peace, if it were possible everywhere in the world, it would be what is best, but it's full of blah blahs that our politicians don't know how to do, they're lining their pockets and nothing more, Putin bouzille Ukraine, and bof... in Africa there are things happening rather ugly ...
Palestine and Israel are so complicated that, personally, I'm going to a game so I don't have to deal with all these problems here!
But then if it can advance the chmilblic, then put a Palestinian nation!)
Good game, sorry, it's a slippery slope and we live in a world where as soon as we say something we're treated like this or that ...
Have fun and be at peace !
Enjoy the game ...

28/09/2025You stray so far from the subject that nobody listens to each other, which automatically creates conflict and ambiguity.
As long as VF is not political, your reactions are disproportionate in highlighting the conflict between the two countries.
As mentioned above, most of the countries created on VF are not officially recognised by FIFA, and some are due to Aymeric's own choices. So what you need to know is, is Palestine recognised by FIFA? Yes
So, only Aymeric can decide on its creation.
