Iran World Cup team forced to leave US after tournament opener in apparent change of plans
After originally being slated to spend the night in Los Angeles following its World Cup opener on Monday, the Iranian men's soccer team was ordered to leave the country as soon as possible.
Coach Amir Ghalenoei said it was ordered to leave the U.S. and return to its training base in Mexico only a few hours after opening its politically charged tournament by playing to a 2-2 draw with New Zealand on Monday night.
Ghalenoei didn't say who ordered the Iranians to leave earlier than planned. The team had expected to spend the night in California to maximize the normal recovery process after its opening game, only to be told after the match that everyone must immediately get on a plane for the 140-mile trip back to Tijuana.
"They didn’t even give us time to recover," Ghalenoei said through an interpreter. "After the game today, they said to us, ‘You have to leave immediately.’ It’s very important for us to have time for recovery, (but) we are asked to get on a plane and return to our camp in Tijuana, and we are really troubled by that." |

FWIW i think it is very positive that DT is giving up its war on iran... there is nothing for the US to win in this dispute and a lot to lose on the economy front.
I think DT is doing the right thing ..there is some degree of embarrassment after all the bravado one could say... but the benefits to the US outweighs that.
Iran is a regional problem... trying to make it a world problem does not make it a world problem. There are enough grown ups in the area..

Savo: self evident truth: starting a war without defining the objective and knowing how to get it is always a bad idea.
The MoU soon be signed stands on the credibility of the US threat to go back to war if Iran does not comply. It looks like a deal signed in weakness rather than in strength from the Trump gang.
Not good omen. |

Savo, the net result is that we arrived late to the game, Iranian nuclear buildup was way more than expected, built under the nose of our failed democracies.
The worst part, we are just starting, dinner is served for politicians that want to confiscate what is left of the private sector :-( |

Savo, Carib...it's simpler that it seems.
Democracies have self-repair mechanisms, once those fail regimes like China's start to outperform.
China has the upper hand on every count, economic, control of its population, zero migration problems, and practically no sensitivity to the AI tsunami.
At our side we know something should be done, but requires coherence, forget it :-(

For one side the stake is survival, and the pain threshold very high, as a consequence. For the other side the stake is.. looking good in the picture, and the pain threshold very low.
Guess the likely outcome. |

| Basic rule of a business negotiation: when one side signals it wants a deal no matter what, the outcome is likely to be bad for such side. Surprising Trump ignored the basic rule... |

Former prime minister Naftali Bennett said on Monday that Iranian regime change will start when Israel has a new government.
"The clock for regime change in Iran will start as soon as the government in Israel is changed," said Bennett. "The leadership is a disappointment."
"The term of the Netanyahu government began with a civil war, continued with the massacre of October 7, and ends with a historic failure against Iran," he added. |
