Its funny how everyone's idea of heaven is a complete untouched paradise, crystal clear waters, lush green forests, enough food for everyone, classless, moneyless, stateless, a Utopia of peace, unity andhappiness. But here on earth it's considered a leftist ideology.
In 1290 all Jews were driven out of England. In 1306 they were expelled from France. In 1430 exiled from Germany, followed by Spain and Portugal. Boycotted in Italy, and time after time tossed out of every major European city.
After the centuries of expulsions, in 1492, Muslims (The Ottoman Empire) opened their doors for the Jewish. in the late 17th and 18th centuries, as the Ottoman Empire became less stable, Jews were finally allowed back into England after 366 years of total banishment.
After 1848, hundreds of thousands of Jews left Central Europe to escape rising nationalism and "pogroms" (anti-Jewish riots).
After WWI, Britain took control of Palestine from the Ottomans. From 1917 to 1939, Muslims (Palestine) opened their doors for the Jewish as usual.
In 2026, some Western politicians lecturing us (Muslims) on how to live peacefully with Jews!
Read some history.
@TimEagleMSP What’s to stop England building nuclear reactors and waste dumps and sending electricity up to Scotland free of charge? Do you see how ridiculous that sounds? Yet, this is what you demand from Scotland. We don’t need them here. We are a net exporter of electricity.
Tonight I'll watch France vs Norway at the World Cup. In France, the match will be called by French commentators on a French channel. In Norway, by Norwegian commentators on a Norwegian channel. That's what every normal nation expects.
Now imagine that every single Scotland World Cup match was broadcast with only English and foreign commentators on English channels. Not one Scottish commentator or Scottish voice. Every game.
Scotland literally invented television but is not allowed to have its own TV channel. Do you know why? Because the English colonial state knows that without its colonial propaganda, its colonisation and lies about Scotland collapse.
A nation forced to experience its own national team through another nation's voice.
If this happened anywhere else in the world, it would be recognised immediately for what it is: colonialism. Scotland was simply expected to accept it. This must end now.
Sending our full support to our fellow Scot who's been targeted by right wing British nationalist fascists.
Nikita is a Scot just as much as I am.
Those targeting her for the colour of her skin are morons of the highest order.
More you analyse Scott McTominay penalty for Scotland, worse it gets. Uzbekistan ref Ilgiz Tantashev makes hand signals 'circle' for 'ball' & 'wave' 'play on'. Jordan VAR ref confirms Aynaouisi Morocco got ball; got nothing of ball - clear trip. Shocking cheating @FIFAWorldCup
Hey @RupertLowe10 you blew the dog-whistle this week, and people have reacted exactly how you wanted them to.
Over 4m Muslims in the UK, and you have made every single one of us a target.
You should be utterly ashamed of yourself.
Dozens of countries have qualified for recent World Cups and most fans barely left a trace.
In their first World Cup week for 28 years, Scotland fans have:
Twinned Glasgow with Boston
Misplaced every traffic cone
Drank all the beer, literally
Irn Bru world record
Taken over baseball
A Guatemalan guy asked me what Yes Sir, I Can Boogie is so he could add it to his playlist 🕺
A Moroccan guy asked me about Loch Lomond (the song)
People LOVE Scotland!
What else did I miss?
Israel flattened Beirut in 1982.
No Hamas. No Hezbollah. No October 7 to point to then.
Just 17,000 dead Lebanese and Palestinian civilians.
Even US president then Ronald Reagan, who armed Israel, called Begin furious after seeing a photo of a 7-month-old baby with its arms blown off and said “It is a holocaust”.
They killed so many innocent people that the survivors had no choice but to pick up weapons.
Then Israel had the audacity to keep using “Self-Defense” excuse every decade.
Israel didn’t stumble into endless war. Israel built it. Brick by brick.
Own it.
Israel is dropping toxic chemicals on farmland in South Lebanon
We’re talking about catastrophic levels of glyphosate, a chemical linked to cancer
11,000 times above safe levels
This is a deliberate war crime aimed at making life impossible and forcing people out of their land
When Russia hosted the World Cup in 2018, it had to suspend normal visa rules for the tournament. Foreigners with tickets could enter visa-free, using a scheme called ‘Fan ID.’
Russia also had to do weird stuff to keep FIFA’s sponsors happy. For example, small shops near Fan Zones and stadiums could only sell Budweiser beer on match days.
So yes, FIFA absolutely does dictate conditions to host governments when it suits FIFA. Infantino pretending otherwise is nonsense.
-Shootings near the England camp
-Japan having to move twice due to terrible facilities
-Players and refs can't even get into the country
-The ball doesn't bounce on the pitches
-$150 trains to get to stadiums that aren't fit for purpose
They've had 8 years prep for this 😭
You cannot commit genocide in Gaza, invade Lebanon, bomb Iran, Syria, Yemen, and Iraq, violate Geneva and Vienna Conventions, international law, human rights, and state sovereignty, then hide behind anti-Semitism.
There is no rise in anti-Semitism. There is a rise in the number of people who are very angry at what Israel is doing. Your inability to separate the two is equally problematic.
Even Hitler's Germany did not prevent athletes and officials from entering the country to take part in the 1936 Olympics.
This is pristine racism and @FIFAcom stands disgraced for allowing Trump to disfigure the beautiful game in this way.
The Senegalese 🇸🇳 delegation gets this treatment on arrival in the USA. Full tarmac searches, shoes off, bags turned inside out like criminals.
This is straight up humiliation and a disgrace. They’d never put white boys through the same.
