What happened to Iran in this World Cup is not an isolated incident.

Match-fixing is far more prevalent in professional sports than fans care to believe.

Professional sports are a form of 'entertainment' - i.e. propaganda. The billionaires who own these clubs and who control the leagues in which their clubs play occasionally fix key matches to maximize their profits or promote their self-serving political objectives.

Professional sports are a cesspool and a fraud.

Ramin Rezaeian reacts to Iran’s dramatic 1-1 draw with Egypt, sending an emotional message to the Iranian people (translated from Persian):

“I don’t know what to say. I don’t know why we have such bad luck—once, twice, three, four, five times.

I don’t know what our people have done to deserve this.

I hope we can still qualify so they can feel better, they deserve more than this.

We fought as hard as we could. It didn’t matter if we had died tonight. We just wanted to make our people happy.

We have been fighting for months. We never asked for anything in return.

Every one of these players is honorable. We played for the love of our people.

People of Iran, we love you so much. I am sorry, that is all I can say.”

🚨 BREAKING: Horrific moments as an Israeli strike hit a tent crowded with displaced families in the heart of Gaza City, causing casualties and widespread panic among civilians.

[Shaiel Ben-Ephraim @academic_la]

Here are the details of the framework deal between Israel and Lebanon signed today. Here is why it is a non-starter:

1) The deal is not a peace deal but just a framework for future talks. No recognition is involved.

2) The core mechanism is two "pilot zones." The Lebanese army deploys, takes exclusive control, and dismantles Hezbollah infrastructure. One zone south of the Litani, one north of it. This is not the first time this kind of deal has been reached. It has never come to fruition.

3) One zone sits in territory Israel seized in the last two weeks. Netanyahu openly says the IDF does not need it. So Israel is "conceding" land it grabbed specifically to hand back.

4) The two sides sold opposite deals at home. Netanyahu: we stay in the security zone, this is a great achievement. Salam: this brings us closer to full withdrawal. Same text. Two contradictory promises. No doubt Israel is the one to listen to. They will not withdraw.

5) There is no timeline. Israel ties any withdrawal to Hezbollah disarmament across all of Lebanon, with full freedom of action retained. That is not a deadline. That is a permanent veto.

6) The parties who can break it were not in the room. Hezbollah rejects the pilot zones. Berri rejects them, "Lebanon is divided into districts, not pilot zones." Iran calls continued occupation a breach of its MOU with Washington. None of them signed anything.

This is another deal without Hezbollah, resting on the illusion that the Lebanese army can force anything on Hezbollah. They can't and they won't. Israel knows this and will use this as a pretext for continued occupation and ethnic cleansing of Lebanon.

🚨 Jose Mourinho Tears Into VAR After Iran Are Denied Dramatic Last-Minute Winner Against Egypt:

🗣️ “For me, this is unacceptable. We spend millions on VAR, we stop the game for minutes, we have every possible camera angle, and still they make a mistake like this. Tell me then, what is the purpose of the technology?

This is not about a small decision. This is about a goal that could have changed the destiny of a team and the history of a nation at the World Cup. Mistakes like this are impossible to defend."

The biggest problem in football today is that nobody takes responsibility. The referee blames VAR, VAR hides behind the protocol, and in the end the only people who suffer are the players and the supporters.

Iran deserved the right to celebrate that moment. They believed they had completed something extraordinary, and then it was taken away by a decision that will be debated for years. That is cruel.

People always say football is about fine margins. Well, if that's true, then the officials must be almost perfect in moments like this. You cannot destroy years of sacrifice with one incorrect decision.

If VAR got this wrong, football owes Iran more than silence. An apology cannot change the result, but pretending nothing happened is even worse. The officials will move on to the next game, but Iranian players and supporters will carry this pain for the rest of their lives.”

[Sage @Sage_FCB]

🚨 Roy Keane Doesn't Hold Back After Iran's Controversial VAR Heartbreak:

🗣️ “I don't want to hear anyone telling me VAR is making football better after watching that. If that's the standard at a World Cup, we're in trouble.

The whole point of the technology is to stop obvious mistakes. Instead, it's become another way to create them. That goal should never have been taken away if the decision wasn't absolutely clear.

I feel for the Iranian players. They thought they'd produced one of the biggest moments in their country's football history, only for it to be wiped out by people sitting in a room watching television screens.

When you're making decisions that can send one team through and knock another out, you have to get them right. 'Almost right' isn't good enough. Not on this stage.

Football is about players deciding matches, not officials becoming the biggest talking point afterwards. Yet here we are again, discussing referees instead of the football.

Someone has to explain how that decision was reached because supporters deserve answers. If VAR can't provide fairness in moments like these, then it's failing at the one job it was brought into the game to do.”

[ᜰ 🇦🇷🇯🇵 @markklfc]

Thierry Henry on the VAR decision that denied Iran a last-minute winner against Egypt:

🗣️ “I genuinely feel sick for the Iranian players. They believed they had written one of the greatest moments in their country's football history, only for it to be ripped away in seconds. That's a pain no footballer should experience.”

“You cannot ask players to give everything for ninety minutes and then allow a decision like this to define their World Cup. If VAR is overturning goals of this magnitude, it has to be absolutely flawless. There is no room for doubt.”

“Look at the faces of the players, look at the supporters in the stands. Those weren't just tears over a goal—they were tears over a dream that disappeared in an instant. That's what makes this so heartbreaking.”

“This isn't just about Iran anymore. Every nation at this World Cup should be worried because if a moment like this can happen on football's biggest stage, it can happen to anyone. That's a frightening thought.”

“The officials will move on to the next game, but the Iranian players and their supporters will carry this moment for the rest of their lives. Some scars in football never truly heal.”

“If that decision was wrong, then football has failed Iran. A World Cup should be remembered for unforgettable goals and heroic performances not for a controversy that leaves millions wondering what might have been.”

El capitán de la Selección de Irán, Mehdi Taremi, explotó contra la FIFA y la organización de Estados Unidos.

“Esta es una Copa del Mundo desastrosa. Como jugadores profesionales no podemos jugar una competición en estas condiciones, no está bien ni es justo. Si la FIFA piensa que esto es justo, tema de ellos, pero no lo es. ¿Quién debería solucionar este problema por nosotros? ¿La FIFA? ¿EE.UU.? ¡No sé! Díganme un nombre. El presidente de la FIFA, Gianni Infantino, vino a nuestro vestuario después del primer partido contra Nueva Zelanda y dijo que iba a resolver todos los problemas, pero en realidad, la FIFA no hizo nada. Respondiendo la pregunta de: "¿Sienten que los organizadores de la Copa del Mundo, incluidos la FIFA y los funcionarios estadounidenses, prefieren que Irán sea eliminado de la competencia?", digo: Tenemos que luchar contra absolutamente todo. No podemos quedarnos en el país, viajamos y nos sometemos a controles migratorios cada vez que queremos jugar, ahora no podemos quedarnos en Seattle y tenemos que volver a Tijuana. Han hecho todo lo posible para eliminarnos, entonces desde nuestra perspectiva, sí, creo que lo quieren así, nos quieren afuera”.

The Lebanese authorities chose Ashura, a day of profound sacrifice, dignity, and steadfastness, to challenge their own people. A remarkable political miscalculation.

With the current public reaction and what WILL come next, Nawaf Salam and Joseph Aoun will have no one to blame but themselves. They made this choice, fully aware of what Ashura represents to millions of Lebanese Shia.

One lesson of history remains unchanged: the Husseini revolution outlives every tyrant and every betrayer. Its values of dignity, sacrifice, and resistance continue to sweep away those who stand on the wrong side of history.

Tsk, tsk, tsk... complete idiots of a puppet Zionist government.

What @MarkJCarney isn't telling you is that Canada's government has the fiscal capacity to build tens of thousands of social housing units to alleviate the housing crisis.

Prime Minister Goldman Sachs would rather increase military spending radically and bail out developers than build social housing.

[Mark Carney @MarkJCarney]

We are going to turn vacant condos into affordable homes for British Columbians. Because we will seize every opportunity to get more affordable housing for Canadians.

[Dimitri Lascaris @dimitrilascaris]

As long as the US continues to arm Israel, we should infer that Trump authorized Israel's latest ceasefire violations.

Trump does not punish Israel for these crimes because he *wants* Israel to commit them.

He and Netanyahu are relentless in their goal of delinking Lebanon from the war on Iran.

The question now is: how will Iran respond?

Israeli airstrikes are now hitting Lebanon in what is likely an effort to restart the war and derail the U.S.–Iran MoU
