HUGE MISSING INFO; FIFA is bowing to the demand from IRAN that "OLD; PRE-REVOLUTIONARY flags (The Lion and the SUN flags) are politcal statements that are banned under FIFA rules.

Remember that America pressured against Puerto Rican flags in the States and on the island as well, claiming they were politics statements too. This, at a time when PRs were being heavily monitored by the FBI for almost 30 years.

True and the current government, while I am sure are very religious and not corrupt, are murderers. The Iranian people can’t catch a break.

The shah is dead, where he belongs. His family is in exile, conniving to get back on the throne. Iran last had a democratic government in 1953, when it was overthrown by a coup supported by the UK and US, because oil.
