These people are just trying to live 😆

I personally know a lot of conservatives that have been posting stories in favour of Qatar. The attitude of these individuals towards the LGBT community is no secret. To call all those opposing the Qatari WC as racist is simply wrong. Others are arguing that sporting events shouldn’t be used for political motives also have this whole thing wrong. The issue here aside from the financial corruption of FIFA, human rights of labourers and banning of alcohol sales aside, is that LGBT people aren’t being told to “cover up and show modesty in our deeply religious society”. It is Qatar saying they practically deny their entire existence and their way of life.

If one has agreed to participate in an event hosted by someone whose mentality one knows but doesn't approve, one hasn't the right to go against this mentality, even though only by demonstrating through an imprinted piece of clothing.

If one is honest to the values/rights of humanity, one should have declined to participate.

So again it's a proof that money corrupts...

Quatar as a CHOSEN country for the World Championship has the right to oppose each demonstration of social/political statements on this platform.

I've a major concern for the consequences that will follow the act of the Iranian team at home. It has nothing to do with Quatar and football but with what happenes in their homeland...and they have family there...

Qatar is what it is..it's belief system is known.

Still FIFA went ahead and chose the country to host WC..All those who chose to participate or came to watch were not unaware of what would happen..at least it isn't unexpected..

It's hypocrisy to complain now when they didn't decline then. Countries r participating, millions r watching and stadiums r packed I suppose..which shows they dont give a damn.

The only positive outcome is that this news got worldwide attention and hopefully will bring some change in outlook

My views - The Westerners need to be more liberal & accomodating towards islamic values. They should bend over backwards until their back breaks. Would serve them right!

The best comment..Bhai Bhai khelo ek doosre ke saath

I agree with you, Kyahikahoon... that's why I wrote that FIFA is - mainly - finacially interested (since too long already) ...

There had been time enough to oppose to Qatar as a place for this sports event and react consequently...the social-political situation there was known.

Open the mouth now, when the event happens, reeks - also for me - of hypocrisy.

He suddenly died of aortic aneurysm even before WC was over
