Even if the World Cup was boycotted it wouldn't change, it's indoctrinated in their culture and has been for centuries.
Apartheid was part of South Africa's culture for centuries, and in America.
Changing it needed protests from ordinary people, and political pressure , and sporting boycotts.
Good job people didn't just shrug their shoulders and say 'what can we do to change it' then. Doing something, even as minor as wearing armbands, is better than doing nothing. Doing nothing is supporting it.
FIFA are shamelessly doing whatever the Qataris tell them to, so all countries in FIFA can do something about that at least and put pressure on them. I read yesterday that Denmark are trying to persuade a group of countries, including England, to leave FIFA and start an alternative organisation. That would be a great start.
Yep, FIFA a busted flush. It started under Havelange and got progressively worse.
