This world cup already served it's purpose to Qatar by giving kickbacks to all of the people involved.

They "spent" 300 billion dollars on this cup, they're not trying to make money off of it. And they don't really care if a bunch of white people from thousands of miles away don't like how they do things. That's why they bought the World Cup, so they could do what their country wants.

It's funny to me how so many people don't get that they just don't care about westerners at all. It's the surprised Pikachu meme every day.

Never looked at it that was. I think they would be just like people in other countries and try and suck as much profit from the people as possible

Oil. They don’t need revenue from literally any other source. Just oil. Then the sovereign fund invests oil money in everything else.

Wasn’t there a Saudi prince that said something like “my great grandfather rode a camel, my father rode a camel, I drive a car, my son drives a car, my grandson will ride a camel.” Or something to that effect? I wish it would hurry up and happen.

Which again, is just one more reason why they must go fuck themselves.
