The burkha should be banned in this country but that's a seperate issue.

Why?

If you ban Burkas do you ban nuns habits?

----------------------------------------------------------------------

It is a seperate issue, but I'm sick of people being declared racists for opposing burkas, mosques and multiculturalism in England by the very same people (usually middle class, white and British) who would be offended by churches, pubs and vests in a traditionally and predominantly muslim country, you can't have it both ways.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

There are churches in just about every Muslim country besides Saudi Arabia.

Surely you know this. Muslims have protected Christians and Jews during religious conflict.

It amazes me how ignorant people are

Does our culture suggest that?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Well in the secularist society you are advocating, people would be forced to respect British and Christian culture which doesn't include anything multi-cultural
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Britain says it is a country that is tolerant to all views

Qatar does not make the same claim.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

and FIFA shouldn't choose to host a massively multicultural sport full of gay people, women, all religions and all beliefs in a country which doesn't even try to be tolerant
----------------------------------------------------------------------

So FIFA should discriminate against particular countries, right?

I personally think countries who illegally invade others, steal resources and murder innocent people should not host any events. Do you agree?

If you're going to adhere to that you'll struggle to find a country which would be allowed to host it.

So they should ban people with particular cultures but allow countries who commit mass murder.

Phenomenal logic

and also countries who have engaged in dodgy wars in the past are not necessarily a direct threat to people coming to watch and play in the world cup and the fact that they are hosting would not be the direct cause of death for thousands of people
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Really? Have you heard of a group called ISIS? Do you know how they formed?

they should ban countries who, by the very act of hosting, kill thousands of workers and who by their very laws, make the majority of fans and players legally and socially unwelcome.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you have any evidence that supports this majority theory?

You realise that nearly half of the country is made up of foreigners. A lot of them westerners

Anyone who thinks Qatar is more deserving of a World Cup than a country like Australia and proceeds to argue tooth and nail in favour of Qatar having the World Cup is a complete imbecile.

Yes I have, and yes i do, I also know it was nothing to do with the world cup. Awarding the World Cup to the USA for example would in no way DIRECTLY cause the deaths of thousands of people.

I can't believe you're trying to justify several thousand workers dying for a few games of football.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am not justifying anything. I am questioning your motives and logic as they are hypocritical.

You turn a blind eye to drone strikes, illegal wars that have killed 100s of thousands.

Qatar has issues, they have not however committed the same crimes against humanity that good ol Britain and the US have done and still do.

It is all good though.

So because someone doesn't want the World Cup in Qatar, they are turning a blind eye to drone strikes and illegal wars?

Drone strikes and illegal wars have absolutely nothing to do with this World Cup bid. Get over your agenda against the western world and discuss the actual topic at hand, which is the corruption at FIFA and what is thought by the majority to be an unsuitable destination for a World Cup.

If you have not spent the last few hours making that argument, whilst trying to turn the whole thread into anti-USA propaganda, then you need to start thinking before speak.
