I understand their stance ...but strongly believe they should've taken part. Their team would've got massive support since 90% of citizens fault Trump for the he war. That would've been an insult to Trump. I'm not sure if Israel is qualified ...but they'll hear it from the crowds if all hell don't break loose.

They pulled out to express their disgust at Trump and Infantino and shame the US, FIFA and WC.

The prestige of the world cup has been diminished with the blood of innocent iranian school girls murdered by Trump's order to blow uo their primary school.

Infantino was absolutely ridiculous with his comment yesterday that he has obtained the approval of Trump to allow Iran participate in the world cup. Same Trump who martyred Iran Leaders and murdered 168 innocent Iranian school girls is the one you are seeking his aporoval for Iran to participate in world cup organized by FIFA.

Is Infantino okay at all? Zero emotional intelligence and outright betrayal of football sport in order to suck up to Trump.

Infantino should get ready to face I.C.C even after he leaves office!
so you will be the one to prosecute him at the ICC abigrin grin. Ignoramus!

Gianni Infantino operates the deeply corrupt organisation called FIFA

Evil figures have ruined the once beautiful game

I will not watch a single match in the duration of this corrupt tournament

Football is officially dead
Well, AFCON is not dead ' yet🥲🥲😅

In Trump's voice, this will be the biggest and greatest ever world cup in football history. Even you wouldn't miss Iran

Trump wouldn't have allowed Iran access to US. It is a threat. These guys can come in with suicide bombers. US needs to be watchful not to experience something like the 9/11 attack
the US has really evolved since 9/11, if u see d kind of security dat wil be put in for this particular WC, d suicide bomber self go give up

The man is pure evil.

Some people who are now angry with Trump, supported Buhari even after hearing him say An attack on boko haram is an attack on the north some years ago.

Boko haram has killed a lot of innocent people in Nigeria as a terrorist group.


HYPOCRITE everywhere.

E go better for am. He's helping to send bloody terrorists and their supporters to hades. No virgins there 😜😜😜😜😜😜
The terrorist Trump himself said he's not sure he will make heaven. He belonged in the hottest part of hell with Nethanyahu, Hezbollah, Hamas, Ipob and other human killers.
The world doesn't need a system where some people lied to invade Iraq and killed 3 million Iraqis then try to destroy Iran because of regime change. There is no evil nation on earth than the hipocritic US that will accuse iran of tyranny then embrace Saudi Arabia's and Bahraini's Sharia laws. Iran is bad but Afghanistan is perfect. Iran is bad but North Korea is good. At least three EU countries are fed up with this policies that is making the world a dangerous place. Hungary and Spain are sick of following the orders of a sick dementia patient president who never considered the consequences of his actions and talks like a slowpoke. Let those who voted for the idiot suffer the consequences for once. This would cup event will be the worst in history and many countries will still withdraw as the war rages on.

America should have been suspended from FIFA for this attack, just like Russia in 2022.

But as George Orwell said "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others"

All on the list you mentioned except for Hezbollah were created by the US. Hezbollah formed as a result of and in response to Israelis aggression.
