Security ahead of Egypt vs Argentina at Mercedes-Benz Stadium were seen checking only Egypt fans while letting Argentina fans walk through freely.

Straight up racist profiling at the U.S. World Cup. Disgusting.

Urgent: Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, Director of #Gaza's Kamal Adwan Hospital, has been detained by Israel for over 400 days without trial. Reports indicate his health is failing and his life is at risk. Healthcare is not a crime. 🩺🆘

Release Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya now. 🕊

Dr. Hüssam Ebu Safiya'nın karısı :

“Tek suçu yaralıların hayatını kurtarmaya çalışmasıydı, cezaevinde işkencelerle õldürülmeden acilen harekete geçin.“

Bu çağrıya sessiz kalamayız #FreeDrHussamAbuSafiya !

For many long months, I have taken it upon myself to help displaced families by providing them with clean drinking water and food on an ongoing basis. I am incredibly proud of what we have achieved together, something that would never have been possible without your continued support.

Now, the scorching summer has arrived, and the need for water has multiplied many times over. Unfortunately, our ability to meet that need is very limited. That is why I am writing these words, hoping to find people willing to help provide drinking water to displaced families living in what are called “tents”.

These people have no one left to rely on except those who read these words and choose to help, so please help them.

One in every four cowboys was believed to be a Black man released from slavery despite the stories told in popular books and movies although the most famous cowboys of the old west were white.

Some notable cowboys!

You made us all proud team Egypt 🇪🇬.

Got clearly cheated out of a goal, and overrun by FIFA corruption.

But hold your heads high like Coach Hossam held the flag of Palestine 🇵🇸.

They can’t VAR this.

[Prem Thakker @prem_thakker]

My gosh.
Yesterday, Egypt Coach Hossam Hassan asked FIFA to use its "soft power" to help Palestinians.
Today, just as the Egypt-Argentina match began, Israel killed Mohammed al-Wahidi, of the Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza — which also organized Gaza screenings of the matches.
