Russia 2018: Yay or nay?

[Gaudi]

USA are fighting wars all the time, don't see them being pressured to cancle some sports activities...so yay for me

Best post ever.

As many have pointed out, no country is clean. At least none of the major powers of the world. Only countries like Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Iceland etc. would be allowed to host any sporting event.

And if anything, it is not up to the US to decide for the rest of the world.

those countries aren't clean either

Switzerland and Iceland are pretty clean, no?

Sweden and Norway, I guess if you consider the Vikings dark chapters of their history.

What about the banks?

No country in this world is "clean."

Yah, of course they should host the World Cup, the countries who are pointing at Russia are no angels themselves. What is going on between Israel and Palestine is much worse than what Russia is doing and the USA have their finger prints all over that so they should keep quiet.

Israel and Palestine aren't going to host such events anytime soon.

Russia are actively financing a rebel movement against a neighboring country that has a democratically elected president(not sure about this ).....What happened to Yanukovich is perfectly normal and has happened in many countries but the russian reaction to losing their puppet is absolutely despicable.....

 

[Behrox]

Voted yay because I'm fed up with the USA wanting to be the police of the world and act as if their own history is completely clean.

+1 :beer2: yay from me

When did Russia acting like a crazy ex-gf/bf, and trying to destroy a country for trying to move on, become about USA?

I'd prefer it to be in USA, even more knowing the actual problems that Russia's facing with east European countries (particularly Ukraine).
But Russia can definitely secure the event but we never know what can happen in the next four years.

- What the hell is soccer ?

FIFA gave WC to Qatar. Qatar! State with no human rights whatsoever. What are we even discussing.
