Italian soccer team adopts Hezbollah logo
Italian soccer team renames itself in honor of the sublime National Resistance of Lebanon : Hezbollah.
The new uniforms for the Italian soccer team includes the Lebanese Hezbollah logo. The team renamed itself "Zasspollah" this year in recognition of the its strong fighting spirit and spirit of resistance.
Voice of reporter: Yes, this is the Hizbullah logo. But what is it doing on the jerseys of these players? The Italian soccer player Davide Volponi knows the answer. Volponi and his friends form a soccer team, which for 15 years has been participating in the Carioca amateur league. The team changes its name every year. In an attempt to boost the morale of his comrades, Volponi suggested naming the team "Zassbollah" this year – combining the name of the team captain, Zasso, with the word "Hizbullah." Where did this idea come from, and what is its purpose?
Davide Volponi, on the phone: The idea to name the team "Zassbollah" came from the situation in Lebanon. We chose this name not as an expression of any political position, but because we were influenced by the strong fighting spirit, and by the spirit of resistance. Therefore, this is not a political matter, because we observe things from afar, but on the field, we must put up resistance and fight the opponents.
Voice of reporter: The Zassbollah team was in need of this boost to their morale, because the rival team included international player Gianfranco Zola, who used to play on the Italian national team, and now coaches the Italian national youth team. Last Saturday at noon, at the Amiscora stadium in Sardinia, Italy – although in a different language and a different style - the Hizbullah resistance scored yet another goal into the net of those who doubt its morality, having become a source of inspiration for soccer players admired by millions throughout the world.
I have great Italian friends!
Good stuff.
Maybe I will move to Italy.

..it's not the first, and definately not the last time something like this will happen!
You gotta love Davide Volponi's remarks.. (translated) 'Yeah, we put the Hizbollah logo on our jerseys; don't get political with me, it's all about resisting y_our opponents!! =D'
Hizbullah couldn't possibly ask for better publicity!
zionists must be seething with anger!

Athletes know an effective, courageous performance when they see one and when a small, under equipped but committed force stomps a mudhole in an evil monsters ass, they remember it.
