The Next Escalation: FBI Launches Probe Of Russia 2018 World Cup Award
With The FBI now reportedly investigating the award of The Soccer World Cup to Qatar and Russia, it appears, as Mises' Lew Rockwell exclaimed, "FIFA has got to change its name, it’s going to have to take out the “I” and put in an “A” for American." This sudden act of imperialism by The US, putting itself in charge of world soccer, as Paul Craig Roberts notes, it "is another Washington-British scam against Russia," adding "law is a weapon that Washington uses to achieve its agenda."
Which is as we predicted a week ago, has only one goal:
And now Russia is stripped of the 2018 World Cup
— zerohedge (@zerohedge) June 2, 2015
Recall:
What happens next? Sepp Blatter's reelection this coming Friday, which until yesterday had been guaranteed, is now virtually assured to fail as Putin's frontman at FIFA is shown the door. What else likely happens?
Following some dramatic procedural changes, Russia loses the hosting of the 2018 World Cup.
And now, let's see how FIFA strips Russia of its 2018 World Cup hosting, which also as noted previously, was the entire reason for the sudden and unexpected DOJ crackdown on FIFA, whose corruption has been well known for decades.
Paul Craig Roberts previously noted,
“This is another Washington-British scam against Russia. It reminds me of the orchestrated press attack on the Sochi Olympics. Washington is trying to turn professional sport into a propaganda weapon against Russia. They are going to use this to take the World Cup away from Russia.”
“There is no rule of law in the US. Law is a weapon that Washington uses to achieve its agenda.”
And as the following interview with Mises Institute's Lew Rockwell confirms, it proves there is nothing Washington will not interfere with...
RT: This story has generated a huge amount of interest around the world. From an economic point of view, there is also a lot at stake, isn’t there?
Lew Rockwell: Well, there certainly is, but I think the political angle is more important. We’ve had this act of imperialism. Who put the US in charge of international football? They’re able to because FIFA made a mistake of having an office in New York. Probably that is a warning to anybody else: Don’t have an office on US soil because then they can use that to take control.
Maybe the corruption charges are true, I don’t know, but again: Why is it the business of the US? I think that’s entirely because FIFA gave the World Cup in 2018 to Russia. This is just another anti-Russian move, and the US wanting to run the entire world, be in charge of every crime or alleged crime every place on the globe.
RT: But doesn’t it have a case there, because there are allegations of $150 million being misappropriated? A lot of this money apparently went through American banks, so part of it happened on American soil. So do they have the right to investigate it?
LR: They can investigate what happens on American soil, but they don’t have the right to go and arrest people in Switzerland or elsewhere. Would you say that England or Switzerland can go and arrest people in New York without the US government’s permission?
I have to tell you, there is corruption in the US too: there is corruption in US sports; there is corruption in the US government; there is corruption in every government. The problem the US has with this is not corruption, the problem it has got is with the results – Blatter wasn’t doing what he was told to do. And I guess now he has done what he was told to do. Obviously something happened to him. Maybe it was just the sponsors’ withdrawing; maybe it was the CIA. Who knows, maybe he was personally threatened or his family. This is the way governments operate there, sort of big-time mafias. We don’t know what happened. But as I said, this is not a good thing for football, not a good thing for the world. FIFA has got to change its name, it’s going to have to take out the “I” and put in an “A” for American.
RT: Do you think that major corporations, such as McDonald’s, played an important role here, forcing Sepp Blatter to resign?
LR: I guess, yes. Of course they are the ones that could be pressured by the US. Even aside the scandal thing, imagine that the US gave them their marching orders, and they took them. And I can understand why companies don’t want to be involved in something that’s potentially corrupt. Although they put on great football games. I don’t know whether they are corrupt or not. I think there is probably corruption in many different international sports associations, because there is so much money at stake. That is not a good thing – people shouldn’t be corrupt, people shouldn’t give bribes, people shouldn’t take bribes. But again, the US is using this to take control of international football; that’s what going on.
Never again will the World Cup happen in a country that the US doesn’t like. The whole world is threatened by the US, which would like to be the world government; nothing is beyond its ken; nothing is outside of its control; nothing can stand against it in the view of the US.

Oh, OK. It's about Putin.
Now I get it.
You thought maybe, it was about corruption?
Tee Hee.
The US is just pissed they didn't bribe them enough to get the World Cup where it wanted it. So now they shut down FIFA. End of story.
For the life of me I can't imagine why ANYONE would want to have anything to do with the US. Being our enemy is far more profitable (and predictable) than being our ally.
Seems that ZH is in need of new writers because most of its latest posts are pure bullshit.
Not good to mess with Mother Circuses
Colonel Cassad posted an article about this yesterday which has a rather interesting timeline of events. The short version is that in April, a bipartisan group of US senators, including Citizen McCain (you just knew he'd have his scrawny little tyrannosaurid paws in this), wrote to FIFA 'suggesting' that Russia hosting the 2018 World Cup is doubleplus ungood. The senators' suggestion was politely declined, and, in late May, the arrests began in Switzerland.
I found this brief machine-translated excerpt of interest:

russian government already invested billions into improving stadiums and infrastructure.. us cant go lower than that. shame that american public have to deal with these morons in washington.
They could have given the cup to Russia, that, by itself, would have been tolerated. But equating Israel with South Africa, considering an expulsion, and humiliating it on the world stage is a crime of the gravest order. Notice must be given to other NGOs / international organizations: if you, as an individual inside any such kind of institution, misbehave, you'll soon witness the full wrath of imperial justice/drones/nailguns.
What exactly about this is BS? I had this exact thought when this whole stupid charade went down. Like soccer is so big up there on the U.S. Justice department list of things to do; for any other reason than Russia, it would be BS. The U.S. Asked them to take the cup away from Russia when things went down in Ukraine and FIFA said no. Makes sense to me
Yeah like free Jon Corzine....
"The US is just pissed they didn't bribe them enough to get the World Cup where it wanted it."
Exactly, Pooty beat them at a game they believed they had control over.
Don't forget how this charade is an excellent diversion.
I'm not picking a fight here but let's be honest; Putin and corruption go hand-in-hand. Does anyone honestly think NO money changed hands for Russia to get the World Cup? And saying "everyone does it" isn't a defense. Corruption is corruption. But to be fair, now let's see the Justice Department get off its dead ass and look into some Clinton corruption too.
Let's insert Obama or practically any other political hack in that sentence and then it will be correct. The point is not whether there is any corruption, its the real reason this went down. It's all about the war against Russia. We're already in an economic/proxy war against Russia. Why wouldn't they deal a blow to them any way possible?
fix America not the world damn it
Fuck it right?
.
America: Fix It Or Fuck It
Pretty much. The window for fixing it closed decades ago.
I'm not picking a fight here but let's be honest: the occupational US government in Vichy DC and corruption go dick-in-ass. Does anyone honestly think NO money changed hands for the US of A to get the World Cup in 1994? And saying "everyone does it" isn't a defense. Corruption is corruption. But to be fair, now let's see the Justice Department get off its dead ass and look into some Bush 1, Clinton 1, Bush 2, Obama, Clinton 2, and Bush 3 corruption too.
How do you think London got the 2012 Olympics ? Don't you think Blair had a trade-off with Qatar ? Madrid and Paris were well ahead as choices
Yeah rich sob when it comes to corruptions Us AND its stooges go hand in hand . What a cunt you are .
Maybe - but I also think it might be about Edward Snowden. I suspect - only suspect, mind you - that the US might call off their dogs if Russia surrendered Snowden.
Putin or not, what the FBI is doing is legally within their jurisdiction and what they're investing is illegal
whether their are ulterior motives or not does not change the fact that it's about time someone had the balls to go after football corruption, and thank god the Americans are doing it because I sure as hell know no one else had the balls to do it
if they get some ulterior motive benefit, too... well, nothing is free. but at the end of the day, this is good for football.
Unfree Corzine.
Bullshit. Try again...
i don't need to when the 1st time will succeed just fine
Blatter is out. enough said lol.
anyhow, some of the replies are, 'oh it's soccer, since when US care about soccer'
FIFA impacts USD more than any other currency by far because where most FIFA assets are kept and because most of the biggest FIFA sponsors operate in USD (e.g. Coca Cola)
A SYSTEMIC CORRUPT COUNTRY FORCING ITS JURISDICTION ON OTHERS . WASHINGTON TROLLS ARE STUPID IDIOTS
Sorry, but I dont want my tax dollars being used to make some frivilous political statement, while scumbags like corzine, barney frank, etc.. are walking around in public.
Soccer, really?
I can't think of anything to 'junk' about there...
Have you adopted the CH1 tactic of, randomly &/or on occasion, crapping out some generic patronizing comment? Or did you have an outpatient lobotomy last night?
Dunno. But while I think about it, fuck you, your mother, and your forgotten ancestors.
They do look remarkably similar Achilles. Twins separated at birth lol.
It's a pity the FBI Don't have the balls to do a decent job on 911 " You fucking idiot"
With your reasoning the US would have to pursue corrupt politicians all over the world who happen to have an account in the US. Do they do that? I bet Poroshenko, Sakshwili and others have made plenty of bank transactions in the US in the past....let's investigate there. It would be good for Georgia and Ukraine, right?!
I can see that you are glad that corruption is being adressed but let's see what flimsy case they will come up with against Blatter. He might have been corrupted who knows. But he sure as hell was also framed by the western press in recent days to be corrupt. So, no matter waht comes out of these investigations, if the US says he's guilty, then the world will believe them. Because the press already made that judgment call 5 days ago. And now there won't be any doubt.
But yeah I'm glad you can sleep better now that some corrupted sport officials are put behind bars. The problem is the bunch where it matters is still at large.
International Law Enforment, get that in your brain..that is its purpose and it will eventually happen acording to the only book that actually contains 100% truth; the Bible because it is the voice of God to mankind and should be heeded now because it will by all in the eternal state...also referred to as "the end" or "at the end".

Well, actually, there are several things in the Old Testament that were plagarized from older civilizations, so I don't know if that's all the 'Word of God'. Illegal, by today's plagarism laws, and isn't 'law' what the Old Testament is supposed to be about?
And the 'God' of the New Testament is completely different from the 'God' of the Old Testament. Jesus walked away from Judaism, and never looked back. Being 'Jewish' is a choice of religion, not a 'racial feature'. There really isn't much of a connection between the two, they shouldn't even be together in one volume. They are two completely different books.
And, of course, all those references to the 'Goyim' in the Talmud. How come none of that is in the New Testament?
Questions, questions.
You really don't know what you're talking about.
Prove your claim of plagiarism. You can't.
You don't know that God remains YHWH, while God's son is Jesus.
There where no Jews in the Old Testament- only Worshippers of YHWH, according to the Mosaic Law Covenant.
The Talmud is the oral tradition that began in Babylon, and Jesus condemned it. It is condemnable to this day.
So everything you've stated is wrong so far.
Care to try again?
Big chunks of Genesis were lifted from the Sumerians. The 10 Commandments were lifted from the Babylonians.
Something about camels where there were no camels then, many inconsistencies to be the 'Word of God'.
Nothing wrong yet. But you're not the one to get what I'm writing. That's OK, plenty of room in the universe.
Again you make empty claims.
Where is your proof that Genesis was lifted from the Sumerians? Are you referring to the universal flood story?
Where is your proof that the 10 Commandments were lifted from the Babylonians? The Exodus was written circa 1400 BC, the Babylonian captivity did not happen until ~605 BC, ~800 years LATER. Are you asserting that Moses had a time machine to transport himself 800 years into the future, and back?
There goes another empty claim.
Now you're claiming there were no camels in the Middle East? Proof?
I get what you're writing- empty, unfounded assertions, unbacked by a single fact.
Wanna try again?
You have ZERO credibilty. ZERO facts.
Crocodile, in fire and forget mode, said:
Nice side tracking. Good way to derail the discussion away from the topic.
But I think you just work for a cookie for the sake of the State Department.
Yeah, see how much Muricans kick and scream when a Spanish prosecutor wants to go after Bush. Or recognizing the international court in The Hague (which they don't because they are being afraid),
The Malaysians went after them, and their planes went down. Maybe the Spanish know wazzup?
Your such a douche. By your logic every country that has been on the explosive end of a drone strike can arrest anyone in the chain of command that authorized the strike. What the fuck do you think would happen if every country went after each and very American that broke laws in their countries, that bribed politicians, that swindled money, that sold bad securities, shit derivatives, fucked a minor, and seduced a young boy. Shit, all of Washington would be arrested. You think AMERIKA would stand for that, would honor laws in other counties......hell no....because BLOHAMA says we are exceptional.....so we must be.....fuck the rest.
It has always been about Putin, he must have made Blatter a deal the greedy bastard just couldn't resist.
Now can we have those FBI fuckers start to investigate the bankers?
OK, now a nuclear war is inevitable.
IT'S THE END OF THE FUCKING WORLD!!!!
< You are nuts
< We have a nuclear war
One already seems to be happening right now.
NO SHIT
Gamma and alpha radiation can be detected by CCD light receptors on cameras through a process known as scintillation. It turns the pixels white temporarily making the radiation look like snow... or halo-like fireworks around a radiation source.
Yemen May 20th 2015.
Check out the scintillation effects from whatever the bomb was at 0:24, 1:09 and especially 1:54
Scintillation evidence Tactical Nuclear Strike on Yemen (Neutron Bomb) - YouTube
Please tell me I'm nuts
It does focus the attention, Zero.
The World's Second Nuclear War and nobody is even noticing except for a couple of nuclear physicists and some very unfortunate Yemenis.
UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE
And Fukushima is the equivalent of hundreds of thousands of thermonuclear devices going off in the atmosphere, by pit weight, and no one seems to give a shit.
Interesting world.
Can't disagree with you.
The mindless muttonheads are practically begging TPTB to kill them off.
Looks like they will be getting their wish sooner than they thought.
"Evil is not succeeding because of the superior genius of its' followers, it's succeeding because of the apathy of its' victims."
– Jack CampbellNo, but hopefully some super-power will work with another super-power and coordinate the take-down of The Global Bully. If so, we'll go to our rooftops and dance on them.
The only people we more sick of, are the bully's Masters.
The bully will be taken down.
And then the victor will take down the bully's masters.
But for most it will be bittersweet.
I, for one, will be popping corks and dancing.
The perfect storm begins soon- WW3.
I have to agree with a previous poster that WWIII started on 9/11. Some US general said the war against ISIS is 'generational'.
Good news for MIC profits. Bad news for the human genome.
Yeah, well that's not the way the recorded history of war works.
WWI began 28 July 1914, though related conflicts started earlier.
WWII began 1 September 1939, though related conflicts started earlier.
WWIII began _______ 20XX, though related conflicts started earlier.
It's not until it involves US/UK and their allies, vs Iran/Russia & their allies, shooting at each other on a large scale in the ME, that we'll pinpoint a date.
I'll buy that.
Wasn't that the goal of all this excercise?
So the USA has destroyed football now.
What is next on their list to destroy and lay ruin in the world?
What day is it?
It is today and when tomorrow arrives it will still be today...hope that clarifies. Cheers!
Double post removed.
I believe that would be US; only a very slow death as it is already happeneing.
Hopefully he bombs the fucking British first. Those fucktards deserve it.
I didn't think it was possible for me to dislike soccer any more than I already do; what with it being a modern day Colosseum to distract the masses. It's moved beyond distraction to propaganda.
Fansmanship is almost as good a tool as politics or religion for controlling the masses.
"Show me a nation of fans and I'll show you a nation of idiots."
Good thing we don't live in a country full of idiots who know more about football stats and future prospects than they do about base-level politics and economics. Shit....
I think the Just-Us department understands FIFA rules and strategies about as well as most Americans understand football rules and strategies.
This is very likely to backfire on the US politically, particularly with the intramural team of Obozo, Lynch and Kerry.
There are certain things you simply don't do as an American trying to impress the rest of the word, and football is one of them.
I'm so FUCKING glad the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies have everything under control in the financial system - now they can sit back and go after the sporting industry. GREAT FUCKING JOB FEDS FOR FUCKING NOTHING!!
this is just anti-russian propaganda .the fuckin' bureau of intrusion is out of control and needs to be destroyed. are there enough stones in this country?
FBI should launch a probe into who made 4 billion dollars on 911 [PNAC New Pearl Harbor] foreknowledge.
Hint: Follow the money to the CIA/Mossad.
Paul Craig Roberts...
IS A FUCKING MORON. PERIOD. EXCLAMATION.
So you are in favor of massive corruption? Huh?
Thats what you want to stay in place at FIFA, you fucking 1st Class A-hole?
Amazing that Dyler Turden and Paul Craig Roberts love corruption
and want to protect Russia's blatantly corrupt philosophy of governing.
You can't be that stupid; really...Paul Craig Roberts is an outstanding and caring person. Can you say the same?
Not everything needs to be politicized.
All the major sports are corrupt. The US is just buttsore that they lost out to Qatar for the 2022 Cup. These things tend to happen when people go around acting like the world's most insufferable and petty asshole who can't be bothered to clean up their own backyard before sticking their big hook nose into someone else's.
If you think Russia is corrupt you should try living in the USA.
bored
hey turd breath
Remind me again how many executives from Moody's, Standard & Poor's and Fitch's even had to call a lawyer in 2008.
Spare us from your crap.
The World Cup should be in a 3rd world country, not the 1st world one's like Russia and Quatar...the U.S. will be qualified by 2018.
I see Detroit as the perfect place to do it !
A new kind of attraction: a real scale of a post apocalyptic city (Japan have some nice ruin too to visit who are called haikyo.)
The Japanese ruins are also called 'Fukushima'.
Another 20 years and they'll be called 'Greater Tokyo'.
This is the beginning of the end for the USSofA.
Classless MotherFucker's.
For a nation who import past their best foreign footballers as their star attractions to even be involved in decision making beggars belief.
So the Useful Idiot David Beckham and the Snide English Football Association want to run the circus. Have it. Participation levels will ensure this competition will lose its Pedigree.
Let's see the Department of Political Persecution investigate and prosecute the Clinton's for egregious examples of CORRUPTION and TREASON!
Would really be a big F.U. to Russia, having been awarded the World Cup, all the advanced planning and construction to go to naught. The DOJ has no better crooks to go after than soccer BS? Really now? Putin could be gone before the games, then what? We just look like the spoiled control freaks everyone knew we were all along.
I know guys who are so happy the US did this and they believe that the cup will NOT be taken away from Russia or Qatar, as that will...wait for it...ruin the integrity of the game! Where are they going to move the Cup to on such short notice, Dumbfuckistan? What a bunch of assholes. Everything they touch turns to shit.
The USSofA and the UK can't take the World Cup away from Russia. Maybe they can STOP/Prevent it taking place at best.
The 133 countries who voted for Blatter against the 73 who voted for the Jordanian Prince will have plenty to say.
A competition without major countries like Brazil who will side with Russia will END the Competition.
BRICS vs. the West. IMF vs. AIIB.
I think we can agree there will soon be two World Cups. China has the facilities, Brazil has the facilities, Russia can build them in Sochi and use what's there.
A bi-polar world, one side in deep debt with a huge military expense, massive radiation exposure and no hope of economic growth, the other side just wanting to be left alone while they grind out economic growth at a snail's pace.
From an investment perspective...
Don't take US dollars as a bribe. Avoid the us banks at all. Avoid Us dollars in general.
it's not about bribes at all. USA can make up case from nothing, like WMD in Iraq
Oh Yeah...
I forgot Lewis Carrol is a
double fucking
1st Class A-Hole.
Hey Dickhead, the bribes went thru US Banks, so gotcha MF bastards.
Surprise, surprise! Naturally, this was what it was all about to begin with. Pry the door open with a coup, and then install a puppet ruler who will rebid the 2018 and 2022 world cups that the USA and UK coveted but did not get. It should be clear that the US Government has zero interest in corruption because American Government is run on a system of open and now closed bribery. USA Banking fraud stole billions form foreign entites, like Norweigan cities, yet no charges were filed. Instead, we had no investigation and no changes in leadership. Compare that with this recent FIFA action, in which Americans claimed, with a straight face, that corruption in anyway connected to American soil or financial system will not stand. Can anyone actually fathom the depths of depravity it takes to publically proclaim the USA stands against fraud, corruption and bribery in world cup soccer. WHEN, the entire US Government and Financial system enshrines corruption as institutionalized.
I would laugh. But the eilte rulers and their fawing public in the USA actually believe we are cleaning up corruption, the good guys are making the world clean of foreign corruption. The good guys, USA, versus the bad guys, all foreigners.
Now, watch as the 2018 and 2022 games are cancelled due to corruption, new bids are taken, and the corruption free USA and UK host the following two FIFA World Cups.
It is like a script for the Kiev coup. The USA will stand for nothing unless it dictates what transpires. The USA seems to be winning everywhere and all the time. But this is an illusion. Dictators always look strongest before the fall.
"But the eilte rulers and their fawing public in the USA actually believe we are cleaning up corruption..."
Jack, please. The elite rulers have not the remotest interest in cleaning up corruption. Their power is based on corruption. But yes, the stupid fawning public, as evidenced by the comments throughout the MSM, have indeed swallowed the fantasy.
God help us all....
"The elite rulers have not the remotest interest in cleaning up corruption."
They simply do not like competition.
This assumes that the US will not be in total isolation by 2018 and certainly by 2022...can't see them pulling this off.
2022. 7 more years of radiation from Japan, and all the domestic US nuclear disasters ongoing, with no end in sight and more about to pop.
Good luck to all of us.
Well done, as usual, Jack, but I have to disagree on two points:
The other issue is Qatar.......it is hot in summer when W/C is played so it wanted to move competition to winter which cuts right into the season in Northern Europe destroying fixtures and revenues
they're expecting over 140 degrees F in Saudi Arabia this Ramadan which is about the same time of the year as the World Cup.
Wait a minute. Did anybody ask a Jew first? They know everything.
http://www.haaretz.com/life/nature-environment/.premium-1.659485
Remember check with the Jews before you do anything.
This, and Israel's impending expulsion from FIFA, were what prompted the DoJ's sudden and unprecedented interest in corruption.
Go PUTIN! Fuck the Jew-S-A!
Lew Rockwell needs to soder up and take his meds. Americans did not arrest anyone in Switzerland. Americans presented evidence to the Swiss police, and the Swiss decided that the evidence was sufficient to issue arrest warrants. This happens every single day. We hear a lot when Interpol is involved, but most of the time it's done between governemnts. Does FBI arrest Mexican and Colombian drug dealers in Mexico and Colombia? No, they present the evidence, and local police does the rest.
Same here. The bribes were accepted, the money was laundered through US banks, income was not declared, taxes were not paid.
With all the terrorism and ISIS, this, obviously, was not a priority. Until Puti-poo started flexing his substantial muscles. Well, to strip him of his bribery-gotten World Cup is the least that USofA can do in response
MDB was better.
Quite a talking vagina that somehow you think your mouth.
+1. Well reasoned post. Not sure I agree, but I like the tought put into it.
RUSL puts anyone?
By the way, gay-friendly Western countries, Poland, Sweden, Norway, and Ukraine, have withdrawn their applications for the 2022 Winter Olympics. Their people voted democratically, "We don't want to spend money on this expensive extravaganza."
Only Putin's friends are left: Kazakhstan and China.
Why don't Western countries want to show to Putin the advantages of democratic Olympic games over totalitarian?
"By the way, gay-friendly Western countries, Poland, Sweden, Norway, and Ukraine, have withdrawn their applications for the 2022 Winter Olympics. (...) Only Putin's friends are left: Kazakhstan and China."
You mean, NOMINALLY LGBT-friendly countries. Poland and Ukraine are nowhere near "friendly" but in the rosy world of the Western MSM. Even though Poland is by no means downright aggressive, while Ukraine most certainly is.
If these winter olympics go to China, the US ptb are going to have a heart attack.
Serious question since I normally don't follow sports and never watch the mindless boobtube: are there any professional soccer teams in the US? I'm sure that the rest of the world would not want to associate themselves with the barbarity called football in the US.
I have a feeling that Putin will follow-up with some creative response to this if only to light up the sky with some new ICBM tests.
There is a club with that tattooed underwear model David Beckham. "Galaxy", if I remember correctly.
He's an import is'nt he?
Ja! . . and as thick as an Irish Stew.
Well I will boycott football cup from now (it's not that I watched it religiously in the first place).
Sorry American brothers, but stopping the American imperialism is a critical step to achieve peace and law being respected around the world and must be done ASAP.
This unipolar world led by the US must be done.
FBI priorities are in right place.
There is nothing that US govt touches that doesn't destroy: FIFA, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Ukraine, Latin America, Africa, etc.
US govt is meddling in the #1 sport in the world. I'm pretty sure this is going to piss a lot of people worldwide.
The US wants a world of subservients.This arrogant attitude that shows no limits,is going to bite them very soon.The world is watching but not reacting yet.
I guess they got tired of Ballmore
All countries, institutions around the world are plain stupid if they dont realise :
That once you give America or Americans even a toe hold they will use it clamber on board and kick your ass . Sorry to the few Americans who are not part of this, but then you are responsible for your Govt's actions. Remember Germans are still having to answer for Hitler.
And yes of course if not directly done, it is done by using proxies.
For FIFA not to become FAFA means no American Stooges
"Remember Germans are still having to answer for Hitler."
How come Jews never have to answer for killing 60 million Russian Orthodox Christians after the Russian Revolution?
Well, no fan of the Inquisition, either.
Inquiring minds . . .
Oh for Christ's sake. Jews don't kill goyim. Unless they can't squeeze any more money out of them. Thinks Farmers and Chickens.
Jews ate my homework! Jews stole my hubcaps. Jews snubbed me and refused to hold the door for me on my way to the elevator. Same endless fucking refrain. Get some new material.
As for the Germans, it is way past time they told the whole world to minds its own goddamn business. They have nothing to be ashamed of anymore.
They have long since passed the torch to America. We are the ones committing atrocities now.
The Germans are some of the toughest sons of bitches on the planet and if Hitler hadn't been stupid enough to pick a fight with Russia while fighting on two other fronts, everyone in Europe would be speaking German today as well as the British. Power flushing all the really smart Jews to America didn't help his cause much either.
Given the culture we have today I often wonder which future is worse.
The real question is why after Hitler chased all the Jews to America, America starts committing atrocities.
If I stay on that path of reasoning very long, I am going to talk myself around to your way of thinking.
Putin knows that the empire of homo wants to provoke him but patience is a bitch and this is sothing the empire lacks.
The world was a better place before the US took an interest in football (soccer for Americans). To know why you just need to look at what happened to hockey. Prior to the 1993 expansion, US and Canadian teams took turns winning the Stanley Cup roughly in proportion to how many teams were located in the 2 countries. After expansion, not one Canadian team has won a cup since 1993. This dispite about 1/4 of the teams being located in Canada, salary caps, and a supposedly fair draft. I calculated it out in 2003 (so, before another 12 years of the same) and the odds were less than 2% that that could happen naturally. (I have some statistics training and referenced resources to do the calculation). I assume we are approaching less than 1% now.
I have argued with many other hockey fans since I did the calculation in 2003 that a Canadian team would never again win the cup, it was rigged. Almost everyone dissagreed with me in 2003, but they are mostly coming around now.
Folks, if there is money involved and also the US is involved, it is rigged. Not neccessarily by the government, but someone who has an interest in the outcome is spiking the Gatorade.
With only 2 teams playing baseball from Canada, of course the odds they would win a "World Title" is slim. But would anyone expect that it has never happened once?
With football, the US is looking for political points not necessarily financial points, but regardless the US government plays "no holds barred" when they get on the field. The national sport of the US should be Rugby without refs.
Mate, I have never thought of but holy shit you are on to something.
Since 1993, the Blue Jays have not made the playoffs, currently the longest playoff drought in Major League Baseball, though the team has remained competitive in its division.
It also appears that Americans may be infiltrating Canadian junior hockey. For example, the 2014-15 London Knights roster had 8 American players and 1 foreign player (Sweden). Althoug not all OHL teams have such high numbers of American imports, what better way to dominate and strengthen the game for the US market by grooming and promoting more and more American players. Time will tell.
When the FBI suspends their "pin the terrorist-event on the donkey" tyranny, you know that someone got a change of mission call from Zion.
"Drop those fake-events you are creating with retards, and go look into this FIFA/Russia thing."
Liberty is a demand. Tyranny is submission..
Will this effect their search for Corzine?!
+1 ROFLMAO!
It will really be obvious when Qatar keeps theirs.
dp, sorry
“And that is Loretta Lynch.”

Do you seriously think most of the soccer teams are going anywhere but Russia. They will go to teach USA it can't be the boss.
what would be sweet is if russia has it taken away and it is somehow awarded to china.
This is going to backfire on the US...... wait, it's coming.
BTW I don't think this news will ever get published but it seems the name of the Ukrainian pilot who shot MH17 is Voloshin. Some Ukrainian dude (pilot-mechanic) who knew exactly what happened defected to Russia and spilled the beans about the "mystery" of MH17. I wonder if FBI would want to investigate this...
It's Atlanta!
The non-western world must be getting sick of the US 'exceptional and indispensable' ubermensch and should force FIFA to move entirely out of the west. In fact, why not just isolate the west?
It seems that every day I see another heavy handed US action and increasingly want to get out of this evolving fascist hellhole.
Qatar will keep their cup. If the US were to strip the Qataris of their World Cup I have no doubt that the House of Al Thani would throw CENTCOM out of their country. For those who don't know, CENTCOM is based in Qatar. So clearly the US is not going to literally shit where they eat. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Central_Command The Emir of Qatar is very new to the job and very young, but he simply could not accept that dishonor. The Qataris simply could not live with the disgrace and they would be the laughing stock of the GCC.
But Russia in 2018? Forget about it. Done. Toast. Now that the US has invaded and conquered FIFA (and wow, someone most have shown Blatter that snuff video of Qhadaffi being sodomized with a piece of Rebar because Blatter nearly shit himself running for the door so fast. A spinless snake couldn't slither away faster)....so yes, now that the US has invaded and conquered FIFA they can and will produuce the evidence to show that Russia 'bribed and defrauded the world' of a 'honorable and proper competition to host the 2018 FIFA World Cup' and they will strip it from Russia. I predict that will happen before the end of the year. Producing some fake bank account documents and emails will be much easier than producing fake WMDs. Russia is about to get proper fucked on the world stage. The Americans have every intent of disgracing Russia and publicly humiliating them.
How fucking sad will it be that one of the contributing factors to World War III is a fucking soccer game?
But if Qatar got the games because of CENTCOM, then it wasn't Qatar that bribed FIFA. It was the USofA.
Russia can make a lot of hay out of that. Remember this isn't about convincing Americans with MSM propaganda.
It's about convincing everybody else.
America does not even care about football (almost everywhere around the world it is called 'football' and not 'soccer') so why would they go after FIFA?
Anyway, the 'beautiful game' just like any other sport or TV entertainment is there to distract the masses from reality. Not that the masses care about reality. They'd rather live in their own bubble than do something against the other bubbles that are created (but that affect their lives).
Americans play Crotchball ,where pussies that need padding run 10 yds and then stop because they are winded and need to pat each other on ass.
Millions of innocent lives destroyed; economies destroyed; US citizens defrauded....Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and now FIFA?
I hope the aliens come soon and destroy the White House because this shit is out of control.
I don´t think, that 209 separate national football federations with each one vote will elect an US/EU/Brit-pussy. They know better.
And Blatter will rule until the election, npw he is a free man...
Why doesn't RT talk about US corruption 24/7 ?
Instead it's always a push for immigration or attempt to rile up the blacks, like a broken record.
RUSSIA IS behind the USA anti- franking movement.
so how does that work?
FBI agents barge into FIFA offices in Zagreb and Minsk, they flash their badges and wave around some subpoenas from the DC Court of Appeals.
Then they cuff some folks and fly them back to DC in a windowless military plane.
One of the perps is removed from the plane with six slugs in his back for "attacking the officers with an air sickness bag".
AG Lynch is comfortable with that rigmarole and reminds a reporter from the NYT that happily the deceased was not a Negro.
I expect the unintended consequence of this will be a flight of international businesses who who think they may have the slightest touch of criminality or corruption.
I would love to see the USA get the World Cup., spend billions on venues and then nobody shows up.
LOL This is pathetic. The USA hosted the 1994 World Cup. But of course their investigation only begins with 1996. There couldn't possibly have been any corruption previously. Not with those paragons of virtue, the Americans involved. No Siree Bob!
So much talk about the scams of the FBI who have credibility next to ZERO . They have a habit of organizing terrorist acts with their
controlled zombies in USA soil . They have no jurisdiction in Switzerland . The controlled press pays too much attention to those scam artist .
Why the FBI ( criminal Org ) doesn't do anything about this ?
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-06-03/systemic-corruption-has-destroy...
So corruption overseas is not allowed especially if the special tribe doesn't get a penny , but in Murika yes !
So the conclusion is that the FBI can't read and write !
The Russian FIFA competitions were 'easly money' for the mass media and Russia would have lost money on the games anyway. My guess is that these games as a vehicle to get funds and personel into Russia for a 'Color Revolution' has been abandoned.
Agree. This could be another US shooting itself in the foot. It thinks it is going to 'hurt' Russia by stripping it of the 2018 tournament but, according to a lot of Russian comments, this is just what the Russians want, a good reason to get off the hook.
Their game and finances have gone downhill since the competition was awarded and they now have better uses for the money. No doubt there would be some kind of financial settlement to cover costs to date. Better still, the 'world' would have sympathy due to US bullying.
As a general point this is another case of the West trying to impose its standards on what is the majority populations of the world. To say it was conceited that its methods and morals were any better than theirs would be an understatement. Particularily when you look at the funding of US politics. Pot/kettle/black comes to mind.
I think McCain, Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Gloria Graham watched too many westerns and think they are cattle ranchers. This shouldn't be anything to do with Putin.
It was Russia's turn for the World Cup, what's the problem. The problem was signing up Qatar for the one after, at the same time! Blatter and his pals getting one last big payoff before they were rumbled.
The mighty corporate USA -Biff Tannen in every way- make like a tree, and duck.
