Notwithstanding the usual patronising white male chauvinist attitude towards Muslims hosting a sporting event LM wishes and hopes Qatar win the bid to host the 2022 football World Cup.
Qatar hosted a very successful Asian Games and unlike the drink sodden English hooligans Qataris are responsible people who don't need Alcohol to have a good time which in large part is one of the unwritten reasons why English journalists seem so disparaging of Qatar along with their Beer sponsoring friends.
The reality is Qatar will have 12 outstanding air conditioned stadiums with solar technology that will be carbon neutral as well as a massive infrastructure investment programme that dwarfs its rivals including a state of the art metro system.
How ironic that the English criticise Qatar when it is Qatari money through Sovereign wealth funds that is increasingly keeping this bankrupt nation afloat. What has England in 2018 got to offer, we have rising hate, the EDL and the BNP, the ubiquitous Chavs on a Friday night, crap weather and a transport system that creaks when a few leaves or snowflakes fall on the line. When the weather is not playing havoc then we have Bob Crow to join in the transport fun or a useless British Airways with their cabin strikes. Compare BA with Qatar Airways, I know which airline I prefer. Oh, but at least we have a dysfunctional royal family of German and Greek stock.
Muslims were hoodwinked by London 2012 and I have no interest in supporting England 2018 a nation that will temporarily suspend its racism for a day hoping the likes of Muslim Egypt, Qatar or even Turkey support our bid, then when the day is over return to gleefully keeping the Turks out of Europe or marching against our Mosques.
Qatar was shafted by the IOC in its 2016 bid for the summer Olympics which eventually went to Rio despite many independent observers acknowledging the technical superiority of Qatar's bid. With Qatar following my advice by removing Gabriel Batistuta as its official ambassador for 2022 and replacing him with Zidane, LM wishes Qatar and the CEO of its bid committee Hassan Al Thawdi the best of luck for a richly deserved victory inshallah.
