Trapped in Dubai: How the dream of eight Zimbabwean players turned into a nightmare Eight footballers from Zimbabwe aged between 16 and 22-years-old were trapped in Dubai, United Arab Emirates for almost four months. They were part of a group of 17 that travelled with former Zimbabwe...

A lot of instances of people having their passports taken away or lured under false pretenses. I agree with you overall though that people neglect that it is actually an upwardly mobile vehicle for laborers from the global south, even if we find the work demeaning. www.fifpro.org/en/articles/...

And even then, those factors are mixed. We have a global blue water navy and we sunk a dozen ships already. They should not expect to be able to saunter back home. India and Iran aren’t that far. So, maybe it’s “illegal” bc it was sunk east (200 miles) of the southern most point of the subcontinent?

I’ve watched this guy for years! What the fuck. Does he think he needs those twitter follows since he’s on his own. I want to say it’s forced but fuck him.

Every single thing this fucking government does, either helps China or Russia at the expense of the US. These oil shocks - my god, we’re helping Russia huge. China is fucking leading on decarbonization! They’re actually working to insulate themselves from these oil shocks.

Docked in a non-belligerent port? Are we at war with India?

Even if it was unarmed it is not considered “out of the fight”. Its options were to stay in India or surrender. Sasha’s point about exclusion zones isn’t nothing; but, besides the point. They knew or should’ve known they’d be vulnerable on the way back. So what if they left Iran before hostilities.

I think us sinking 12 of their warships two days prior was sufficient notice. They know they’re in a belligerent conflict with a blue water navy. They should have remained in India.

And he wrote a positive book about Jesse Jackson’s campaign and its impact! Weird.

Why do we think it was unarmed? It possessed no munitions at all? Like we’re in an active state of war. Days prior we literally sank a dozen of their war ships. How can they expect “safe transit” back under these conditions. I would’ve been terrified to leave India!

I hate them all. They took the sentiment from those of us tired of the overt Christianity from our government and then ran with “all religions are dumb, but me, not an expert, am here to tell you, Islam is the worst”.

I do care about Jewish safety and infuriated me that you extend that bullshit to a humanist Muslim.

Nothing Zohran has ever remotely said comes close to wearing a Nazi tattoo. Nothing. But people who don’t pay attention to politics, thinks he hate Jews, and you’re part of that. If anything your wife’s racist twitter accounts explains so much. And I had my bar mitzvah in Israel!

What does Zohran need to learn about Jewish Safety Daniel? You said that inflammatory shit. We have literal goose stepping Nazis in the White House. But instead you further the smear that Zohran hates Jews. Congrats. Now we’re getting a Nazi tattoo dem nominee since you muddled the water on this

What I’d like to know, is what the fuck is causing the last remaining “ice/snow” piles to stay intact. They’re grimey and dirty as fuck and seemingly covered in car grease and/or exhaust and other street elements.

Then you’ve got Jon Bernthal. With a Jewish last name. Is Jewish. But no one thinks he’s Jewish since he plays tough guys. But he’s related to Sheryl Sandberg and Adam Schlesinger!

Despite living in NYC for 18 years now and having access to all types of middle eastern and Mediterranean forms of kebabs and fixings and to this very day, my fave still, is Moby Dick House of Kabob in DC (Persian/Iranian). All this awful war talk unfortunately makes me think of how great that rice

She ain’t Jewish

Wife isn’t Jewish. Some Nazi website alleged so because of her last name. That’s the only sourcing for this.

The person isn’t even Jewish. Some right wing Nazi webpage alleged she is based on her last name. And Ryan runs with it.

Well good thing those gulf states have a lot of cheap labor. Oh wait. Let me think this one through more.

It’s so embarrassing to see Ryan do this. To turn off his critical functions to pass on what he heard from VDARE as being credible on whether someone is Jewish!!?!? What an asshole.

The newsday article didn’t say much about fraud but did mention less registered cars, which raises the whole, illegally registered out of state thing.

I’m still in my Master and Commander phase so I concede I’m still partial to the Clipper Route.

it’ll be a shit show when the south asian laborers manning the ZSU-23 outside the Burj Khalifa get tired of being underpaid.
