@thatboydidit@piersmorgan The point I’m making is that this is not the first time FIFA reversed a decision on a red and playing the next game in the Cup.
People think it’s ‘the last defender,’ but the law says ‘the second-last opponent.’ Because the GK had come so far off his line, he wasn’t one of the two deepest defenders. Iran’s scorer was beyond the second-last Egyptian player, so even with one defender on the goal line, he was still offside. It’s a rarity but the right call. #WorldCup
@citrinowicz The Kurds of Iran would never march to Tehran. This line simply feeds into a false narrative that the Kurds are separatists who want to break the country up, which in turn creates fears among other Iranian communities and only strengthens the regime. It is untrue. Good work.
@Joyce_Karam “More hardline” compared to when? 6-8 weeks BEFORE the war started, it killed tens of thousands of its own citizens! Is that less hardline Joyce?
