FIFA Will Now Allow the Iranian Girls Soccer Team to Compete While Wearing a Hijab Head Covering
Written by Marty Roberts on May 3, 2010 – 1:58 pm -Although I don’t really like the taste of this story,,,why SHOULDN’T girls be allowed to play soccer wearing a head covering???
FIFA never really gave a good reason for NOT allowing the Iranian girls team to wear the hijab-head covering..maybe because there really isn’t any good reason…
Let freedom ring…(as long as the Muslims don’t threaten to start rioting unless EVERY girl wears one…)
FIFA Lifts Ban on Hijab-Clad Iranian Girls
The Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) overruled an earlier verdict banning Iran’s female footballers from observing Islamic code of dressing in the Olympic Games in Singapore, and allowed Iranian women footballers to wear Islamic dress during the competitions
Reprinted from FARS News Agency
Earlier in March, FIFA had banned the Iranian women football squad wearing Hijab from participating in the inaugural Youth Olympic Games (YOG) which will be held from August 14 to 26 in Singapore.Following the announcement, Head of Iran’s Football Federation Ali Kaffashian along with Member of the Federation’s International Relations Omid Jamali travelled to Switzerland to meet FIFA President Sepp Blater and FIFA Secretary-General Jerome Valcke on April 14.
The Iranian side could convince Blater and Valcke that the Iranian girls’ new wearing would not violate FIFA rules, noting that the entire world should respect Muslims’ rights and consider Islamic rules and values as a crucial factor when dealing with the Muslim countries’ women football teams.
Following the discussions in Switzerland, FIFA wrote a letter to Kaffashian, announcing its agreement with the Iranian girls’ Islamic code of dressing.
In its letter, FIFA said that if the hat covers the hair without violating the game’s rules and the girl footballers can use it, participation of the Iranian girls in the Olympic competitions in Singapore will be unimpeded.
FIFA also ordered the relevant bodies to take all the requirements to register the Iranian under-15 female footballers, stressing that there is no problem for the participation of the Iranian girls in the Singapore Olympic games.

Missiles Rain on Southern Israel and FIFA Threatens Sanctions After IDF Shells an Empty Field
Written by Marty Roberts on April 7, 2006 – 3:30 pm -In today’s show, I focus on threats by the international controlling body of soccer, FIFA, against Israel.
I talk about the ongoing daily missile barrage against southern Israel, and the measures that Israel’s defense establishment have taken to stop the attacks.
Apparently, Israeli artillery hit a soccer field in Gaza, and FIFA is furious, threatening severe sanctions. The dialogue taking place between Israel and FIFA is incredibly surreal, threatening my sanity, as I share the inside scoop with you…
Not to mention the new, improved missiles and launchers being developed, courtesy of the Palestinian Authority and YOUR tax dollars.
Shabbat Shalom!!!
Missiles Rain on Southern Israel and FIFA Threatens Sanctions After IDF Shells an Empty Field
Has FIFA lost its mind?…Has the entire WORLD lost its collective mind?
The daily missile barrage on Israel continues and even worsens, and we respond by attacking empty fields
…and the Europeans blame Israel for the palestinian soccer teams poor showing
…and for the poor start of the palestinian soccer league…
Is there ANYONE still sane around here?…
Plus…New, improved missiles and launchers against Israel are on the way…
Courtesy of YOUR taxpayer dollars…
All this and MORE…
