Never Forget, 19 year old LaVena Johnson who was found in her tent in Iraq in 2005. She had a broken nose, black eye, loose teeth, burns from a corrosive chemical on her genitals to cover evidence of rape, and a gunshot wound. The U.S. government ruled her death was a 'suicide.'
"By refusing them hospitality, the US effectively deprived Iran's team of time to sleep and eat, even on a match day.
Iran was never offered fair play or an equal chance.
On the same day Iran played its final match, the US was bombing Iran."

not this halftime show being “let’s unite and love the world” whilst they’re actively bombing countries who were in the world cup and funding genocides
For three years the world knew her only as Emily Doe.
"In the newspapers my name was unconscious intoxicated woman. Ten syllables and nothing more than that." Her attacker had been convicted of three felonies. The judge gave him six months because he was worried prison would have a severe impact on him. He served three months. Then walked free.
She sat in that courtroom and read her statement directly to him. Every word of what had been done to her. Every consequence she had lived with since. Every thing the system had decided didn't matter enough. It was posted online. Read 11 million times in four days. Translated into dozens of languages. Read aloud on the floor of Congress.
California passed mandatory minimum sentences for attacks like hers. Broadened the legal definition of what the law recognised as r**e. The judge was recalled from the bench - the first California judicial recall in 86 years. Then she told the world her real name. Her name is Chanel Miller.
Her name is Megan Rapinoe. The US women's team were the best football team on earth. Four World Cups. Four Olympic gold medals. The men failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup entirely. The women were still paid significantly less. Lower salaries. Lower bonuses. Lower prize money. Same federation.
Different rules.
In 2019 Megan and her teammates sued the United States Soccer Federation for gender discrimination. The federation fought back. Argued the pay gap was justified. Argued the men generated more revenue. The women kept fighting.
In 2022 US Soccer agreed to pay both teams equally - permanently. Every female player who had been underpaid received back pay. The most successful team in American football history had to sue their own federation to be treated the same as the men who couldnt even make the tournament. They won. Every penny.
ICE officer who shot Colombian man in Maine has history of threatening behavior and mental illness, family and court documents say. https://t.co/Kwt8CdMwRf
💢 Breaking: The ICE agent who shot and killed 26-year-old Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero in Biddeford, Maine, on Monday has been identified as David Michael Brouillette, 37, a former Maine law enforcement officer and Army veteran, the Portland Press Herald reported.
Brouillette was first identified Wednesday by ICE List, a public database of ICE officers run from the Netherlands, which cited two people who knew him personally. His ex-wife confirmed it the next day.
His ex-wife, Ashley Brouillette, said he called admitting to the shooting and asking her to “lie for him.” She said she reviewed footage of the scene and disputed his account, saying “nowhere in there does it show that this man charged at you with a car.”
Ashley Brouillette also said that her ex-husband was abusive during their relationship and that she had previously reported concerns about his mental health to his military superiors. DHS has refused to identify him.
