Qatar would be killing workers regardless of a world cup, all they have been doing is building over the top projects so they can be the world's 1% luxury getaway. It won't work because rich people like their booze too much.

How plausible is the "military arms for FIFA votes" story? Does it come from somebody who's likely to know?

I don't think for one second that germany got the worldcup without some dubious dealings, but the arms for vote thing is not a thing I would concentrate on. Germany is one of the biggest arms exporters in the world, has sold weapons to saudi arabia before and there was no embargo as such. Exports to saudi arabia have to be approved by the federal security council. I don't think a few Panzerfausts are something to talk about when we are talking about a country that wants to buy Leopards 2 from Germany.

quote:A 2007 email between supposed-to-be-resigning FIFA president Sepp Blatter and then-South African president Thabo Mbeki discussed $10 million that went to allegedly corrupt soccer executives as a payment for the country’s successful 2010 World Cup bid, reports South Africa’s Sunday Times.

The Independent posted:If Blatter is its hero, the film’s villains are the bigoted English. In a scene set in 1904, an FA official complains about “blasted frogs”. In 1929, another muses poshly: “Negroes, playing football? Why not women while we’re at it?” Even as late as the 1970s, a dastardly Englishman suggests Africans can’t be trusted Why did the English ever do to Blatter?

Choice quotes from reviwers:quote:As cinema it is excrement. As proof of corporate insanity it is a valuable case study. quote:Earning the opposite of its intended effect, United Passions makes you believe we have yet to witness the true depths of FIFA's ego and arrogance. quote:This is the definition of failure

Tell your grandchildren "that was my doing, that seven dollars." I mean, you'll lie, because you'll sneak in rather than give them any money for that garbage.

I watched United Passions and it's a great movie about a man with a dream, a masterpiece beyond The Birth of a Nation imo.

Case in point, one miserable theater in North Hollywood (read: essex) is showing this piece of trash. Good google, though. http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/06/05/us-soccer-fifa-film-idUSKBN0OL2HA20150605 The Internet posted:Francisco Carrillo, 62, said he came to the midday showing of "United Passions" at the North Hollywood's Laemmle theater, the only one in Los Angeles showing the film, because he is a fan of soccer, popular in his home country, Mexico.
