“FIFA has a zero-tolerance policy on human rights violations…” That’s hilarious.

Duh? Are you really surprised?

Before jumping to conclusions, the very fact that these accusations made it to the news at all in such a conservative country is a triumph for universal education, human rights, and independent journalism; indicative of the changing face of Afghanistan where these are slowly improving. Sure, there is still a long way to go, but these are only baby steps.

When the Afghan president includes the word “mere” before the word “allegations”, you know everything you need to know about what’s going to happen here.
