FREEDOM IS OUR GOAL

It’s been a good World Cup in terms of seeing repressive, women-hating, Christian-incarcerating, Islamo-fascist dictatorships get their pathetic tails kicked up and down the pitches of Germany.

Iran are out before the third game of the group stage even takes place, which is good for the German government; had that nutjob President Ahmadinejad decided to make the trip from Tehran to see the round of 16, German President Mrs. Merkel would have had to decide whether to roll out the red carpet, as international protocol demands, or to have the bastard thrown in jail, which German law requires when dealing with Holocaust deniers. I know what I would have voted for.

The Saudis, while not mathematically eliminated, suffered a 4-0 humiliation at the hands of Ukraine today, and have to face Spain in the next match. Heh heh heh. Go home and drown your sorrows in over-priced crude, fellas. See ya.

Soccer is one of the few places where I support Iran. After reading a few articles and books about Iranian culture, I found out that soccer is one of the few places where men and women may mingle, show excitement and happiness, and paricipate in a shared experience. Yeah, all of those things are systematically denied by their religious authorities. So I was sad when Mexico beat them, both because Mexico should never win, and because an Iranian victory would do more for changing internal Iranian politics than anything else I can watch on TV

Wow. Great point. I hereby withdraw my Schadenfreude toward the Iranian National Team.

Players dont bring thier government’s beliefs to the field. If that was true, the USA would ignore the refs and win their own World Cup by force. Sure the Iranian government acts questionably, but the ideals of the government against the ideals of the Iranian people and players are so far removed that you can’t lump them together.

I’m a full-blooded American and I was shouting at Iran to beat Mexico.
