Though personally a keen football fan (he supports Arsenal), Starmer announced that he would not attend the final even if England was in it.The Qatar World Cup turned out to be a success, and many of the criticisms against the Gulf Arab state on human rights grounds were exaggerated or invented.Four years later, Starmer is Britain’s prime minister. And in a characteristic display of double standards, we’ve heard not a squeak of protest from Downing Street about the US World Cup - yet the case for boycotting President Donald Trump’s United States is more powerful than the case against Qatar. Far more powerful.</a></label><br><a href="https://todon.eu/system/media_attachments/files/116/733/359/666/568/698/original/0bc98fc22bb5fccc.png" rel="external">https://todon.eu/system/media_attachments/files/116/733/359/666/568/698/original/0bc98fc22bb5fccc.png</a></li><li><label><a rel="external" href="https://gnusocial.jp/attachment/6165652">The Nuremberg tribunal, set up to punish Nazi criminals after World War Two, described this type of action as the “supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole”.Regardless, Starmer’s Britain was happy to allow the US to use British bases for what were euphemistically called “defensive” actions. On the first day of the war, more than 170 schoolchildren and teachers were killed in a US strike on a girls’ school in Minab. Sadly, that is not the worst of the atrocities committed by the US since the Qatar World Cup.</a></label><br><a href="https://todon.eu/system/media_attachments/files/116/733/361/994/390/635/original/fabfa6298086db03.png" rel="external">https://todon.eu/system/media_attachments/files/116/733/361/994/390/635/original/fabfa6298086db03.png</a></li><li><article><header><div>Domain not in remote thumbnail source whitelist: www.middleeasteye.net</div><h5><a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/usa-illegal-wars-racism-genocide-why-world-cup-should-be-boycotted#WorldCup">Illegal wars, racism and genocide: USA World Cup 2026 should be boycotted</a></h5><div> from <span>https://www.facebook.com/middleeasteye/</span></div></header><div>Trump's US is embroiled in war crimes on multiple fronts.
