should FIFA suspend Egypt?

February 5, 2012

There’s a piece offering Sepp Blatter’s reactions to Port Said, HERE.

I’ve not yet heard anyone, in the news or in conversation, suggest that Egypt should be suspended by FIFA from international football competitions for political interference. But when you think about it, it may be a good idea. I doubt the Egyptian public would react against FIFA or take it as a punishment of the Egyptian populace as a whole. Instead, I think it would be correctly interpreted as a warning to and condemnation of the Supreme Council of Armed Forces for… choosing my words carefully here… allowing this to happen.
