Iran accuses US of being racist following US victory over Iran in Football World Cup

You have to love the Iranians, never mind that they are busy shooting Iranian protesters and sending kamikaze drones to Ukraine to kill Ukraine citizens.
They are more interested in finding fault with US politics. The US soccer coach was in the firing line from Iranian press following their 1-0 loss to the US.

The Iranians are angry because their flag was improperly displayed on the World Cup website before being changed. It was incorrectly displayed in support of the protests in Iran.

Iran also supports Putin in his invasion of Ukraine. For that alone they should be banned from the World Cup or have their flag hung upside down.

We need to call balls and strikes again - this censorship of the flag is an absolute DISGRACEFUL act in line with every totalitarian's dreams something out of a Communist secret police literally removing people from photographs or Google phone being evil literally cutting people out of pictures THIS IS EVIL. I do NOT like Islam at all but they do some things right and it is good to root for the underdog I was for IRAN in the game and admire a lot about their country they STICK IT to Israel and the USA and you have to admire that. Remember that drone that crashed and Dick Cheney urged Obama to blow it up but he didn't because Obama was pro-Iran and they reverse engineered the drone and now sell them to the highest bidder because the USA has froze all their money that is SO poetic justice. The only reason the USA hasn't invaded bombed or totally DESTROYED Iran is because of geography too many mountains the average US solider can't fight in mountains same as in Venezuela so the policy is soft imperialism amicable coercion
