Just like everyone else
Not true. If you happen to be a pedophile billionaire, the U.S. is a safe haven for people like you.
I’m not sure any of the teams will be safe here. ICE might pick them up in a sweep and deport them. “What’s that? You’re here to play football? Who do you play for, the Cowboys? Bullshit, we’re sending you home, amigo.”
I’m from Europe and would not feel safe over there. My perception of the USA is probably biased by lemmy, but it really doesn’t seem like the place to be.
I think you’re pretty spot on. I’d recommend no one come to the US unless they absolutely have to.
Meh the violence here is fairly obvious unless you are unlucky and its completely random, but people are scared to tell the truth.
They declined the invitation already…
Iran is scheduled to play three group-stage matches beginning on 11 June, including fixtures against New Zealand and Belgium in Los Angeles, followed by a match against Egypt in Seattle.
The comments come after Iran’s sports minister, Ahmad Donyamali, said the team would not take part in the tournament following the US-Israeli war on Iran.
“Considering that this corrupt regime has assassinated our leader, under no circumstances can we participate in the World Cup,” he said.
Amazing how a six paragraph long article managed to bury the lead.

Lede not lead. I mean this in the nicest of ways.
FIFA peace prize in shambles
They played each other in the last World Cup I seem to remember
What, are they U20 or something?
A world cup without Iran? Not my fifa.
