Brazilian midfielder Danilo was taken off the field in a stretcher less than ten minutes into Nottingham Forest’s season opener after he appeared to suffer a gruesome leg injury in Saturday’s match against Bournemouth. 

The horrifying scene unfolded just after the six-minute mark of the game when Danilo and Bournemouth striker Antoine Semenyo both went to challenge for the ball.

The players collided, but Danilo appeared to injure himself when he landed hard on his left foot. 

Danilo, who joined Forest from Palmeiras last year, was seen calling over for help as he stayed on the ground in obvious pain.

He was immediately surrounded by players and medical staff. Screens were eventually brought out to shield him from the stadium, and the game was delayed for several minutes until he was taken off in a stretcher. 

The extent of Danilo’s injury was not immediately known, but it was reported that he had broken his leg. Images of the incident appeared to show the graphic nature of his injury. 

The game resumed after the delay with Nottingham Forest taking a 1-0 lead by halftime. The match ended in a draw.

Democratic strategist James Carville believes that racism is what’s really behind the Republican Party’s strong support for Israel over the Palestinians.

During the latest episode of the "Politics War Room" podcast, Carville and co-host Al Hunt discussed why there is a disparity in support for Israel between the Republican and Democratic Parties, stating that the Republicans are much more unified in their support for the country because its citizens are "whiter."

"And the reason I suspect that most of these people describe themselves as pro-Israel is because the Jews are whiter than the Palestinians," he told Hunt.

The topic came up during a question-and-answer segment where Hunt read a guest question asking how a party that has "openly embraced" the "alt-right" and "neo-Nazis" can present itself as the "most pro-Israel party."

Carville replied, stating that the racism of the party drives it to support Israel. 

"It’s really about the misogyny and the racism that drives the thing, and we got to recognize that. It’s not about any policy prescription," he said, adding that the GOP supports the "whiter" Jews over Palestinians. 

The strategist then discussed why pro-Palestinian protesters choose to focus on disrupting Democratic Party events, when the GOP is far more supportive of Israel. 

Relaying the comments of a pro-Palestinian activist to explain this dynamic, he said, "So, the reason that they say we’re targeting Democrats is because, well, we think they would be more open-minded about this. But we’re not going to do anything to the Republicans because we’re not gonna have any influence."

Carville reminded listeners that there is a contingent of anti-Israel agitators planning to demonstrate at the Democratic National Convention next week, and also mentioned how states like Michigan pose electoral problems for the party because of its Muslim population. 

The strategist expressed frustration that the Democratic Party has to deal with this, while the GOP doesn’t. "Well, that’s just some dumb--- political s---."

"So, you’re going to hurt the person that actually has the best chance of resolving this issue in a satisfactory way cause you can’t influence the other person," he said.

"I don’t get the logic, I don’t get the logic at all. I just don’t."

Earlier this year, Carville warned against pro-Palestinian voters organizing a protest vote in the Michigan Democratic primary against the Biden/Harris administration because of its continued support for Israel in its war against Hamas.

"Well already, no matter what happens, I know it’s a huge problem. And the uncommitted will do fairly well," Carville told MSNBC host Jen Psaki in February.
