It's concerted spectator abuse targeted against one particular player, which
is typical trash talk one would expect in professional sports, except that
it's in Malaysia, the player is Jewish, and Malaysia happens to dislike
Israel.

Hi,
General advice: Don't be afraid. But bringing your hat/cap would be
nice (I left it at home too, though). TLV itself provides you a wifi
connection for free but power is only available at departure floor,
the top floor.
Which document would you carry on? Good questions. What they asked me
to
Hi from Tel Aviv suburb.
I strongly recommend to follow Manuel. Also the letter from the
organizing team may help.
At security check in AMS I met difficulty , since then I left all the
copy of registration team and also had no copy. They asked if I had a
document on my registration to the

Unless you come from a potentially problematic country (for example one
which doesn't have diplomatic relations with Israel, or just one which is
rather exotic for incoming tourism), the printout of the automated mail you
got from us should be fine, and even that shouldn't be necessary. It's just
I'm flying from Hong Kong to Tel Aviv on an El Al flight, holding a British
passport with a Malaysian stamp from this January (along with a few other
stamps from USA, Taiwan and Japan from previous years).
I never thought Malaysia would be an issue other than some questioning by
the El Al and
Deryck, you should be fine. There are many Israelis (some colleagues of
mine, for example) who're flying to Malaysia on business with foreign
passports. I don't even know what the Chelsea incident is, it didn't make
any headlines over here.

A bit more to add about *passport stamping* (mainly for those holding
European / north American passports): an English girl (a close friend of
mine in Cambridge) who was in Israel last year told me that although the
Israeli border control advertises the facility to have a separate piece of
paper
No, James. If anything, then you might find that in TLV (on your way back)
they don't even bother with some of the things that they do check for in the
states, such as that rule about liquids in 100ml containers or asking you to
remove your shoes.
If you're flying El Al, you will be politely but
Yes. I visited israel this spring and had no trouble at all getting in-
super fast. But- and this was very surprising to me- all the questioning
came when I left :) so do leave extra time when you go back to the airport.

Sounds like nothing more than the typical trash talk that one would
expect in professional sports.

Did we have this already here?

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has a big article on Wikimania on their
website. Amazing.
Maybe something worried participants can print out and take with them.
