BREAKING:
This is Gaza right now.
Israel is raining bombs on civilian areas in the middle of the night while people sleep.
Not a peep from the complicit international community, of course.

“I see us as having a responsibility to address things. That’s what we tried.”

🇺🇸 Infantino Surrenders His Own FIFA World Cup to Trump's "Aggressive World"
Asked by the BBC if he had lost control, FIFA's president didn't deny it. He told the world to "chill" and "trust us," then admitted: "Sometimes we manage, other times not." Here's what he's managing:
🇮🇷 Iran: granted visas, forced to leave the U.S. immediately after their game
🇸🇴 Omar Artan, Africa's best referee: denied entry
🇺🇿 Uzbekistan: drug-sniffing dogs, metal detector checks, full body searches
🇸🇳 Senegal: pulled off the plane, treated as "criminals," degraded on the tarmac
🇮🇶 Talal Salah, Iraq team photographer: held 10 hours, then denied entry
🇮🇶 Ayman Hussein, Iraqi footballer: held and questioned 7 hours at O'Hare
He handed Trump a peace prize while Trump handcuffs his tournament. This isn't FIFA's World Cup anymore.
Yves Bissouma!!
In 2019, Brighton held Arsenal to a 1-1 draw in a game that saw the Londoners miss a return to the UEFA Champions League. One of the highlights of the game was Brighton and Malian midfielder, Yves Bissouma laughing at the dejected, shattered and devastated Nacho Monreal and the Gunners for missing the UCL spot.
If you asked me, I developed my hatred for Bissouma on that day. He became a Tottenham legend on that day also. He deserves a sh...ty club, anyway! He would later sign for Spurs, his current club, and today he has been released. Karma

Joshua Kimmich on the 2026 World Cup in the USA:
“To think that we footballers can solve these problems or bring about any change is the wrong expectation. We shouldn't be doing politics.”
