Two recent articles in the Citizen concerning the FIFA soccer tournament in Qatar caught my attention. One article described the Iranian team’s refusal to sing the Iranian national anthem.

It is reasonable to assume that the European soccer teams, when they return to their respective countries, will continue to receive the high adulation and high salaries that they are accustomed to. I don’t care if Hollywood stars want to spend their monies on ultra-million-dollar mansions but I DO care that the NCC has been spinning its wheels for years over “fixing” the prime minister’s official residence, writing 81-page reports on that subject, and has done nothing to avoid the rising costs paid by our taxpayers’ dollars.
