Argentina cancel their football match with Israel but will travel to Russia for the World Cup

Argentina canceled their warmup game against Israel but are happy to travel to Russia for the World Cup.  

Do the Argentinan football team know about the Russian invasion of Crimea, the restrictions on gay rights, the lack of a free press, the endemic racism, the arrest of peaceful demonstrators and most critically Russia's involvement in the murder of countless Syrian civilians? 

Somehow I doubt that Argentina will be canceling their flights to Russia, so what's different about Israel? Is it the Jews?
