What's the point in holding the World Cup in the US when referees, journalists, team photographers etc from Africa and the Middle East are being barred from entering the country?
>holding up a world cup in a xenophobic authoritarian country that blames all of their failures on poor immigrants and foreignerswhat a great idea FIFA
>>155114568he's got known connections to Somali gangsters on the terrorist blacklist, as are all the other people being banned.its not random, read the full story.
>stop improving the sport by removing thirdiesNo
>>155114568
>>155114603Sounds like excuses. Why weren't there problems during the previous World Cups? Russia was less strict about who was allowed in ffs.>>155114968It's called the World Cup
>>155114568That is the point, actually. They don't just give out FIFA peace prizes for no reason
>>155114568this is just wrongalso the Iran team was kicked out of staying in the US, and when they finish playing a match in US they need to fly back to Mexico inmediatly
>>155115299That's not true either. All of the players were allowed, but some of the support staff weren't. And they are returning to camp the following day, which makes total sense. Kind of a shame still, but the situation has been dramatically overstated
>>155115321>some of the support staff weren'tAnd why is that? Zion Don got triggered?
>>155115321They had a camp in america but america revoked their right to stay in their country,so mexico stepped in
>>155115354Again, that's incorrect >>155115345Sort of yeah
>>155114568i wonder if they will deport the terrorist of eibar
>>155114568>be half senegalasi>talk about this story with the african side of the family>"it makes sense, you can't trust somalis. They should ban the morrocans next."
>>155115321>invite people to your country for a sporting event>treat them as terroristsThere's nothing "dramatically overstated" about this charade.
>>155114568>be terrorist>get banned from entering the USA>THE WORLD CUP IS... LE RUINED!You know, I don't see Canada or Mexico stepping up and letting this bulbhead officiate any games on their soil...
>>155115380They had a camp.in tucson arizona. There was a visa standoff. Now their camp is in tijuana , mexico. Also trumo.said he coukd t guarantee the safety of iranian playershttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cgmpmp89dvro
>>155115542
>>155115507>responds to the same post twice>people literally overstating the issue by citing falsehoods pertaining to this topic ITT>that's not overstated!hmmm
>>155115542That would violate fifa rules about referees. Teams would know beforehand the referee. There are less games in canada amd mexicoAlso bold of you to argue with "how dare you not clean the shitstain i made"
>>155115589Canada is so much more respectful of others compared to the USCanada is more compatible with European values than the US that much is clear
>>155115567right, they moved their camp because some staff that the US viewed as non-essential weren't likely to get visas. That's very different from what you previously claimed.
>>155115589Nice but unfortunaltely fifa rewuires referees to be in miami.
>>155115596Not my mess. I never told anyone to be a terrorist.
>>155115321Trump said they can enter the US but their safety isn’t guaranteed. The problem with this is as host you are obliged to invite the qualified nations into your country as guests with all that entails, and the solution would be then for Iran not to enter the US and to play all their games in Mexico (or Canada) rather than be told by the host that they aren’t welcome but FIFA said no. None of this is out of character
>>155115656agreed, but how many times are we going to move the goalpost here? Also, one of Trump's countless verbal shitposts or seething rambles don't really count as official policy if your IQ is over 80.
>>155115603There’s no reason to not give them visas, they get visas everywhere else they play and there’s been no incidences that would make sense for them to be denied a visa into the US for the tournament. The US is a shit host and this will not be forgotten quickly
>>155115406Based
>>155115681Everything he says is taken seriously
>>155115685another moved goalpost. I might agree if I knew anything about the applicants, but neither of us do. There's zero reason to trust either the US or Iran at this point. And now you're saying this country is a shit host because 1) a handful of support staff are having visa issues and (likely) 2) ticket prices that were set by FIFA. I have zero doubt that you came into this thread assuming the falsehoods that were posted above were true, learned that they were actually false, then didn't revise your stance whatsoever.
I woke up today and I don't give a shit if some random moon cricket from Somalia didn't get a ticket to the United States actually
>>155115699well he frequently contradicts himself, posts AI and says weird inane stuff, so that literally cannot be true unless you're an absolute schizo or have no memory
>>155115714Clearly you don’t understand how fallacies work
>>155115742>make a specific claim>revise it upon revelation of its inaccuracy and pretend you're still making the same claimThink I'm fine m7
>>155114568Get out ye blacks and tans
>>155114568wet socks?
>>155115592>responds to the same post twiceNTA, I'm a different Manolo>All of the players were allowed, but some of the support staff weren'tThe staff members are part of the team. There's nothing overstated. All those Iranians were literally invited to the country for a sporting event and once they got there they were, and still are, treated as terrorists. The land of the free is a more restrictive host of the WC than Russia and Qatar.
>>155114568It's just a prank bro>>155114587Your entire continent blames all its failures on usYou have less than no place to lecture>>155115148Because other countries are too retarded to keep track of terrorists and keep letting them iycs
>>155115824>anyone we say is on the staff is part of the teamfair enough, but that seems a bit extreme. I agree that none of this is dieal, but at some point, the pearl clutching has to be proportionate to the actual issue. When it seems overblown and in some cases built on premises that are falsehoods (eg some of the ones in ITT), it strains credibility. And let's not pretend that a Russian team would have a simple time getting extended staff approved for a UEFA tournament in the EU if it were held today. Just blame the orange man for starting an unnecessary war and ranting like a dumbass in public.
>>155114968You're so fucking dumb it's actually insane
>>155115904I heard from a Senegalasi that we should ban you next...
>>155115542Mexico has tried the issue is that fifa requires all the referees to stay in florida until a game
>this Moroccan is THAT MAD that his goatfucking family couldn't qualify for a visa
>>155115887>Just blame the orange man for starting an unnecessary war and ranting like a dumbass in publicAs dumb as it is having that guy running a country, can't blame anyone but Infantino and every other money grabbing cunt at FIFA. They'd be playing with a cube instead of a ball if it would mean adding a single cent per match to the bald fraud's bank account
>>155114568Because we have enough niggers here
>>155115685I really wish that was true. But america does what it wants and nothing happens.
why is he even a referee? somali iq is below those of monkeys... maybe thats why afcon is such a joke, lol.
>>155115600Absolutely true, you both embody the values of welcoming terrorist affiliates
World Cup should only be held in non-racist countries like Russia
Hosting it in a country that is in an active war and is an active warzone opens up future possibilities.
>>155116045I totally agree Ivan!
>>155114568>Heartbreaking photos that make you say 'stop having borders and laws and shit'.
>>155116136this is a HUGE day for Africa
>>155114568>think of the heckin referinos!lol no
As soon as Trump did his “Muslim ban” in his first term it should’ve been enough of a sign of things to come that FIFA should never have even entertained the idea of the World Cup in the US. Corrupt dickheads
>>155116045this
>>155115148>Why weren't there problems during the previous World Cupshow do you know there weren't
>>155115685>this will not be forgotten quicklywho cares
>>155116310you're a faggot
>>155116234>allowing an official FIFA referee for the World Cup you volunteered to hold means having no borders
Why are the Irish posters on here such muslim loving fags when their countrymen are burning down asylum centers and immigrant housing?
>>155116568>countrymen
>Somali referee Omar Artan, who was denied entry to the United States to officiate at the World Cup, has been appointed to take charge of the Uefa Super Cup match between Paris St-Germain and Aston Villa later this summer.LOL
>>155116568>When their countrymen are burning down asylum centers and immigrant housing?That's happening in Northern Ireland for a start. Even then most of the rioters are protestants, even further removed from the Irish flags in this thread simping for browns.
>>155115845>Because other countries are too retarded to keep track of terrorists and keep letting them iycsother countries are not fucking despised to death by the rest of the world like yours, no matter what you think there>that's why everybody comes hereonly niggers want to live there
>>155116568Northern Irish UK loyalists are the ones doing the peaceful yet fiery pogroms.The Irish you're thinking of are the southern ones who keep electing a gay Indian Taoiseach.
>>155115681You cant take "you will die" lightly. If he said "i will sanction iran" ok, but " you might die here" must be taken seriously
>>155117108he literally called for the end of their civilisation, a civilisation as historically significant as Rome and ChinaThe president of the world superpower said this
America has lowed the bar so much that notorious coward infantino getting iran to merely participating at the world cup is a victory
>>155117170Trump literally helped save the Iranian women's soccer team from getting killed. Say what you want about the referees but that nigga Trump likes athletes. Have you ever seen how he will call then handsome men anytime he sees them? He is gay for them.
>The U.S somehow is worse at hosting the WC than QatarPolfags see this a something "based" but Trump is doing all this mostly to appease Israel. You niggas are acting as if Trump was Marcus Aurelius instead of Nero.
>>155117848he's doing it for his retarded voter base
>>155114968You’re so fucking based it’s actually insane
The Best African ref is still worse than the worse 2nd division Spanish ref. Fuck em
>>155114568System functioning as intended. We have an issue stateside with connections to Somalian organized crime groups.
>>155114568Hopefully we never host this gay sport again.
>>155117848Usually countries use these events to improve the image of their country in the international community. The US is literally doing the opposite. Idk what's the end goal.
>>155114568i read they said he was a terrorist or all his mates are terrorists i mean he is somalian that's just hard to avoid. He seems like a good egg.
>>155114568stop being brown
>>155118110retard
>>155118075Momey and we have the infrastructure. Why do we care about foreigners opinions when everybody knows they would find something to hate on no matter what. We could do everything perfect and it would still be considered the worst WC ever because "it doesn't feel right in a non-football country" or some nebulous shit like that.
>>155118075You really think Americans care what "Slovakians" think of them?
>>155118398Do you think having allies all around the world is irrelevant to american power projection?
>>155117848I wonder if guys like Nero and Caligula had a bunch of political devotees who called them "based">you just don't get it man, Caligula making his horse a senator, that was redpilled as fuck
>>155117316>Trump literally helped save the Iranian women's soccer team from getting killed.Then why did almost that entire go back to iran a d denounced their refugee status if he saved them?
>>155118041I know. Too many whiny fag foreigners.
>>155118398It's apparent you don't care about what anyone thinks. You're like the weird kid who thinks he acts cool but everyone actually sees him as a retard.
>>155114568>a country is actively monitoring its bordersIt's funny how it has become controversial in Europe. It was the norm until the 90's you know, at a time where asylum seekers were a handful intellectuals and not a horde of useless thirdies.
>>155118543Freedom of choice. Women are retarded but we will let them be like that.
>>155118543>Why are sandnigger women retards?I wonder.
>>155118366>>155118398Why did you want to host the World Cup when you don't care what the world thinks?
>>155118075You fags would find something to complain about regardless so why bother?
>>155118593More like the popular kid who everyone wishes they could be like and are jealous of. You consume all our media, movies, shows, culture but pretend like you absolutely loathe us. The hate only flows in one direction, it's like that scene in mad men, "We don't even think about you"
Apparently is just a trump tantrum against somalians scammers. Not terrorism or iranian assets.
>>155115922i heard the same rumors
>>155118651
>>155118631Because soccer is fun? Do you want to host a world cup because you care about self image? I want to watch my country play at home.
>>155118366
>>155118798>brazilian posting this
>>155117848Your government literally starved and displaced the populace to have your World Cup so I don’t wanna hear it.
>>155118798>2002 South Korea & JapanBiggest rigging ever seen in a world tournament with corrupt refs, nearly destroyed the sport's legitimacy>2006 GermanyNeo nazis chimping out, forcing Germany to beg people to not be racist in every single game. Social media didn't really exist at the time so it was easy to cover up all the financial and political abuse.>2010 South Africa & 2014 BrazilSo much controversy cause the Brazilian government was using billions to build new stadiums while its own citizens are dying of hunger and don't have jobs...Homeless people being rounded up and evicted to give the image that everything is fine. Vuvuzelas ruining the vibes of every single match.>2018 RussiaAKA known as the LGBTQ world cup where teams would protest for gay rights (Germany again) and all the media would talk about is how oppressive Russia was for not being pro-gay.>2022 QatarUsed literal slave labor to build stadiums. Importing Brazilian players into their national team. Bribery and vote buying. No alcohol allowed because it's not halal.>2026Trump did a meanie by not allowing 1 ref and enforcing typical immigration rules. Don't even like le orange fake hair man, but if this is what makes America a bad host then we're leagues ahead the likes of you. It is what it is hermano.
>>155114587I didn't know it was being held in Africa.
>>155115699kek no
>>155114568>Not the heckin' somali, what are we gonna do now
>>155115589Man what a bunch of cucksThe only source of canadian pride is not being the US
were it up to me no divegrass teams or fans would be allowed infucking faggot sport
>>155115699
>>155118998Notice how all of these countries, despite mistreating their own people, wanted to look good for the outside world. That's why those homeless people were put away and those stadiums were built.You may spank your kids at home but you're not going to treat your guest badly. The US is doing the opposite.
>>155119550>mistreating your people is actually a good look for the outside world
>>155118998>typical immigration rulesi think their specific point is that they are atypical
>>155119550>neglecting your people for a flashy performance is better than 1 referee not getting a visa
>>155117108you have to be a child if you think that there wouldn't be security around the Iran team.
If Africans and Arabs can't behave civilized then this is what should happen
>>155119773why do you keep saying the 1 referee thing when it's obviously more extensive than that
>>155118798 Wasn't your current President in jail for corruption and got acquitted by judges which he appointed to their positions?
Good
>>155114568 Based America
Libtards being ultra buttmad to the extreme is an interesting angle to this World Cup.On the one hand, there is potential for great memeing on these gays.On the other, they will become insufferable when the US gets knocked out.
>>155115887>Just blame the orange man for starting an unnecessary war and ranting like a dumbass in public.the same guy that you people voted for, twice.
>>155120361It was him or a woman, twice.
just let every terrorist and criminal in to your country bro, what are you racist or something?
>>155119841It isn't but it's the pretend issue people who hate USA or aren't sven soccer fans are using as a vector of attack. I used Reddit for porn and I was recommended a thread over this ref. I read the comments, and EVERY American saying we shouldn't host and it was embarassing for us also outright admitted they don't watch any sports. For example, one of the top comments thought 2nd term Trump was the one who brought the world cup here.
>>155121317You shouldn’t be hosting, you should be not embarrassed but ashamed. Your reputation is shit, nobody likes you and nobody trusts you and instead of listening you’re playing the victim
>>155121102the horror.
why do leftists worship black "people" so much?
>>155119550>Evicting thousands of people to make it seem like your country isn't poorly run is a better look than 1 guy not being allowed to blow a whistle
>>155120361Orange man was harmless compared to the alternatives!>ColombiaThis thread is just people who live in glass houses throwing stones lol
>>155114568The point is that it becomes less corrupt that way.
>>155114568Such a fucking disgrace holding the Cup in USA. Literally any other country in the world would have been better
>>155120361most people didnt vote for him
>>155122520>people who live in glass houses throwing stones what is it with /sp/ having no idea how to use this proverb at all?
>>155114568You're right, there should be a far more severe punishment for these terrorists.
>>155121622>the horrorUnironically yes. Giving women power is a horrible idea.
Putting a cheeky few quid on the USA making it to at least the quarter-finals via massive Trump fuckery kek.
>>155122757>Literally any other country in the world would have been betterMost countries just can't hold it financially and structurally, many others are dangerous shitholes, and it's not fun to do it in countries that already held it sometimes several times, it was a good choice imo.
>>1551230872030 is going to be held in 6 countries. Surely there were more options for 2026.
Personally, I can’t wait to see ICE agents get curb stomped by rabid Argentinians in the AT&T stadium parking lot
Already the best World Cup in decades
terrorist ref?
>>15511456860 IQ Somalis should only be allowed to officiate Premier League matches anyway
>>155115589Canada and being 2nd is something that seems to be commonplace in 2026
>>155123087this. I think they should actually hold the World Cup every year in the US. No wars on their soil. All those stadiums. Loads of rich people to pay gazillian sheckles in goy funds to attend matches. Immigration that keeps out terrorists. Promotes good excercise to the stadiums with safe walking for all. fanzones in some cities look cool.
>>155123225Jose mad his felon cousin got sent back to the place they love so much but refuse to live kek
>>155117136lol what a retard, Islam already killed Persian civilisation, now the country is just an Islamic shithole
>>155123225Lmao someone’s cousin got deported
>>155123225
drumpf will just deport half the players out of all the teams usa is going to play against a day before the match and win the cuptrust the plan
>>155123795>>155123864>>155126497u mad drumf faggots?
>>155115406extremely based, my gabber friend
>>155123759This is a joke, right?
>>155118998>its own citizens are dying of hunger and don't have jobs...Homeless people being rounded up and evicted to give the image that everything is fine.lolAmerigoyems do this every month whether theres a world cup or not
>>155114568a better question would be why is africa and the middle east considered part of the world
Chances of ZOGmerica allowing an israel sponsored chimpout against the iran team? that "your safety is not guaranteed" shit sounds like one of those gay little threats israel does, i would not be surprised if a player gets shot
>>155114603But yet let 10's of millions of criminals across their southern border on purpose the last decade just to use as a weapon against their own people to take away all their rights.
>>155135957you're conflating two different adminstrations
>>155119019You said that but the one World Cup that was played in Africa was less of a mess than this one.
>>155136518>bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
>>155136977SOVL
>>155119019this nation is africa now, because of nigger like you
I like how none of the media have bothered to ask whether there is any accuracy to the story, and what intelligence the US authorities had on the guy. It'll probably be revealed in ten years that they warned FIFA six months ago but they tried to brush it under the carpet, so the Americans made an example of them
>>155114603>he's got known connections to Somali gangsters on the terrorist blacklistand what's your point? our retarded government let a whole somali pirate colony set up shop in minnesota, and they even have their own politician who openly says she doesn't care about america and wants to funnel resources to somalia using america
