The next
Federation International de Football Association (FIFA) World Cup will be in
Russia Jun 14, 2018 – Jul 15, 2018. The whole world will be watching from the
Television and some live at the stadium.
Russia and
world cup players have been receiving threats from ISIS. There are many threats
from ISIS and they are doing that by posting photos that are threatening the
players. Photo such as an ISIS soldier standing in front of the stadium with a
gun or one of the world cup players getting capture and tortured are a few
examples. The one photo you see at the top of the page is an example of an ISIS
soldier in front of one of the stadiums and the Russia 2018 logo with an armed
jihadi posing beside it and the words "Wait for us" in Arabic. There
are a lot of other photo that threatens the world cup, and there are many to
talk about, but one of the photos caught my eye, and it was recently released
by ISIS.
This is a
photo of Lionel Messi, star player for Argentina, behind bars and he is crying
blood. It is the second direct threat to Brit footy fans gearing up to travel
to the World Cup in just a week. Rebels in Muslim-majority Chechnya have turned
to the warped ideology in their droves and have been behind a series of deadly
attacks in the country.
On April,
2017 14 people were killed when a bomb was detonated on a packed underground
train in St Petersburg. Russia put itself further in the crosshairs of sick
terrorist attacks after the Kremlin ordered a relentless bombing campaign
against their comrades in Syria last year seen by many as a decisive turning
point in the war.
Russia is a
big country, and it also a big target, it is easier to threaten Russia since it
is not across the sea from where the ISIS soldiers are. The last world cup
(Brazil 2014) did not seem to receive any threat from ISIS, only mini threats
such as thieves and criminal within the country. Brazil is across is across the
sea and it is hard for ISIS to get across the sea without anyone noticing them
but then again Brazil is not a big enemy to ISIS but Russia is and the world
cup is the perfect time to attack Russia and kill a lot of people. I’m not
saying it should never be held in Russia but it would be best if it wasn’t held
at Russia this year since Russia and ISIS are big enemies to each other, but I
can’t do anything about it because I’m just a normal person giving out my
opinion.
