Palestinian FA boss blasts Infantino's failed FIFA Congress handshake debacle 'absurd'

FIFA President Gianni Infantino attempted to get Palestinian FA President Jibril Rajoub and Israeli FA Vice-President Basim Sheikh Suliman to shake hands on stage at the 76th FIFA Congress in Vancouver, Canada. Despite two minutes of pleading from Infantino, Rajoub refused, citing suffering and the Israelis' actions as reasons. Rajoub left the stage amidst deafening silence, with Infantino failing to achieve his goal of creating a symbolic photograph of peace.
