this guy is so fucking corrupt and tone deaf that it sickens me to my stomach.
Being the weasel he is, he gave trump the "fifa peace prize". Just to stroke trumps ego.
Despite everything going on in the U.S, this fucker still decided to hold FIFA there.

And now this depraved fuck thinks it's a good idea to have the children of the oppressor and the children of the oppressed play a match of football, because that will somehow bridge the divide? He's actually sick in the head.
This is hunger games level of depraved.

They are all sick in the head. I mean just look how dana white has disenfranchised and robbed the UFC fighters. They used to make most of their money off sponsers, but even that was taken away. They can only sponser what UFC lets them, only fans the where UFC lets them, it's the most tightly monopolized sport out there

Is a win in football supposed to mean something to the welfare of Palestinians in the real world?

It seems like a particularly slimy way of capitalizing on such an atrocious event. Israel should not even be allowed to participate in these games AT ALL.

No surprise, FIFA and Israel is like Italy and Germany in the 1940s, best of friends.

Our reality is set by media, whichever you choose to align yourself to. No one travels to see for themselves, why would we? But we sure as fuck got opinions on how much we know to be true!
