What the heck is “La Familia”? It sounds like some sort of Hispanic group, which is obviously not the case here.

La Familia is the ultra football supporters’ group for Beitar Jerusalem. Established in 2005, they since have earned several global headlines for their opposition to signing Muslim and Arab players. The group has been documented chanting “death to Arabs” during matches and has gotten the club fined tens of thousands of dollars for their racist behavior towards Israeli-Arabs and Muslims during games.

According to some estimates, La Familia has between 3,000 and 5,000 members. More importantly, they have a lot of power within Beitar Jerusalem.
