The FIFA World Cup, which is set to take place in Qatar from Nov. 21 through Dec. 18, has a\u00a0website<\/a>\u00a0that offers the public help in purchasing hospitality packages, but Israelis looking for their country were originally given the sole option of \u201cPalestinian Territories, Occupied\u201d rather than \u201cIsrael.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

After multiple news reports drew attention to the omission, the option of \u201cPalestinian Territories\u201d was removed and replaced with \u201cPalestine.\u201d Israel is still not listed on the website. StopAntisemitism.org pointed out the continued error on Sunday in a Twitter post,\u00a0asking<\/a>\u00a0the FIFA World Cup, \u201cWhy is Israel STILL not listed?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The sales agent listed for \u201cPalestine\u201d is the Hong Kong-based Winterhill Hospitality, which has been appointed the FIFA World Cup\u2019s sales agent for various countries in Asia and the Middle East. Israel is listed as a country on the FIFA ticketing website and also on the Winterhill Hospitality website,\u00a0The Jewish Chronicle<\/i>\u00a0reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

Israel reached an\u00a0agreement<\/a>\u00a0with FIFA in June that allows Israelis to purchase tickets for the World Cup and enter Qatar for the first time without the need for a foreign passport.<\/span><\/p>\n
