I’m not pro their ideology, but we fucked Iran over when we removed their
—>democratically<— elected president and installed Pahlavi instead. That move set in motion the birth of the Islamic Republic.
We’ve been fucking up Middle East since the 90s and achieved nothing. We only added more wood to the fire.
If you walk down the street throwing punches expect the same in return. You can def have moral society without the big fella. If you can drive you should be able to have a gun too. You may not want it but… Because I have faith in you I will allow you to carry one, but because I can’t trust you I shall carry one too.
🚨🗣️ José Mourinho on FIFA overturning Folarin Balogun's red card following Donald Trump's intervention:
"Everyone is acting so shocked today. Everyone is crying about politics and Donald Trump making phone calls to Gianni Infantino to change the rules. But why are we surprised? The integrity of this tournament was thrown in the trash in the very first week.
All this started when FIFA let Lionel Messi escape a clear red card for a studs-up challenge. When you decide that the rules do not apply to the poster boy, you open the door for everyone else. If the referee's monitor can be ignored for Argentina's captain to protect the brand, why can't a suspension be ignored for the United States President?
Folarin Balogun gets a red card, Trump makes a call, and suddenly FIFA finds a magic 'Article 27' to let him play against Belgium. It is a circus. We are no longer watching a World Cup, we are watching a political reality show where the rulebook is just a suggestion based on who you are and who is watching."
Brazil was better when their players were womanizers, drunkards and slightly out of shape. In other words, when they were behaving like Catholics— letting the power of friendship and good fun do the heavy lifting.
Evangelical Protestant sterilization has flattened their ball, ruined their samba, and obliterated their swag.
World historic aura loss.
🇺🇸 New York City got a once-in-a-lifetime sunset, right after a severe storm swept through.
America turned 250 and New York really dressed for the occasion.

As a Croatian, it was heartbreaking to witness a grand-scale robbery taking place in front of billions of people. Favoritism is something that FIFA and UEFA continue to be scrutinized for, yet little changes. What is VAR really for?
On the other hand, you can’t have three defenders allowing an isolated attacker to score like that. -Huge miscalculation. We can cry all we want, but that was on us.
So congrats to Portugal; they wanted it as bad as we did. But firstly, congrats to our boys who left their hearts on the field and once again showed that a small country can keep up with the big boys.
Bravo Hrvatska! 🇭🇷
Esta toma es clara donde el #20 de Croacia no toca el balón, no cambia la dirección del balón, quien SI lo toca es #13 de Portugal por lo que no había offside ….
¿Qué opinan?
