@Theluggage15 what a disgusting thing to say. What would you like. Let's think of footballing disasters. Stadia collapse? Fire? People being crushed in crowd surges? A bomb? What a fucking evil thing to say. Shame on you.

You've said plenty of disgusting things on these threads. I seriously doubt the poster wants a bomb to go off, calm the fuck down.

How about queer people being put in prison or murdered by the government?

Yes the prisons are full of gays and the streets awash with blood. Grow up for fucks sake.

Yeah, how dare people care about the rights of gay people.

You seem to think there is nothing wrong with criminalising homosexuality.

You have no idea what I think about anything except for the angry mummies posting here. They can go to hell.

And yet you seem to know everything about me, including what kind of house I live in and how much money I have apparently.

Given that you are determined to defend the homophobic laws in Qatar its not exactly a leap to infer what you think.

SaySomethingMan · 07/06/2022 13:18

Plenty of people share your sentiment.
Neither country will win but it’ll be nice to support them while they last.

Kd44 · 07/06/2022 13:21

Well it's pretty obvious 😂

Show me an Islamic country where it isn't. Then show me an Islamic country as tolerant and peaceful. You don't know what you are talking about. And you are not prepared to listen to either expats or Qataris, both whom have contributed. Why are you so bitter?

You won't be alone. Most of the Guardian-reading liberal-left would support Ukraine against England. In fact, they'd support anyone against England!!

DysonSphere · 07/06/2022 13:48

This country has no right to tell other countries about their human rights crimes after Iraq, which was a totally preventable war, wasn't a threat supported by intelligence and wasn't even sanctioned by the UN. And then to top it off, rewarded Tony Blair with a knighthood just last year.

Selective Amnesia is not a medical condition.

Right.... I have been working with the Government of Kazakhstan for 10 years, but sure whatever scenarios you prefer to make up in your mind. You'd make a career on the Russian news 👍

Yanbu. Maybe Zelenskiy can use some of his £7bn to buy football lessons for them all. 🇺🇦

I have worked in Qatar. It is not a particularly tolerant place but most of the intolerance derives from migrants from Egypt and other Arab countries, not the actual Qataris who prefer to live and let live. For example, it's illegal for a Qatari to drink alcohol but many of them do so at home in private. The general laid-back attitude means that a few religious conservatives can appear more influential than they really are, because they are the squeaky wheel making all the noise.

A friend of a friend is a pilot for Qatar Airways, and tells a great story about a (male) colleague, who regaled him with details of the previous night. Apparently he he received the best oral sex of his life ... from a man.

"Oh" says my friend-of-a-friend, in a mildly surprised tone, "I didn't know you were gay, you never mentioned it."

"I'm not gay!" yelled the colleague. "What are you talking about? I don't let anyone put anything in my ass!".
