CBS Reporter Tries To Spread His Woke Ideologies At A World Cup Game In Qatar – Gets A Taste Of His Own Medicine

A US sports journalist, who is in Qatar to cover the FIFA World Cup, claimed that he was detained by security staff after he wore a rainbow t-shirt to the US’s World Cup opener against Wales on Tuesday, he also complain that the security kept him locked and his phone was taken away!

The tweet by Grant Wahl, the journalist, caused a furor on social media, with woke lefties lending him support while others, mostly Qatari nationals, schooling him to respect the “culture of the region”.
Grant claimed his phone was taken away when he tweeted about the incident. He was then detained for 25 minutes and told to remove his t-shirt.
Dr Nayef bin Nahar, an outspoken Qatari academic, said, “As a Qatari I’m proud of what happened. I don’t know when will the westerners realize that their values aren’t universal. There are other cultures with different values that should be equally respected. Let’s not forget that the West is not the spokesperson for humanity.”

“Respect the culture of the region and follow the rules as civilized person,” another Qatari national tweeted.

As an American, my values are different from your values… but the thing is, I do not travel to your country and expect your people to change and conform to my values. I don’t see why this is so hard for American liberals to understand.

But still, I don’t agree with the idea that all cultural values should be equally respected.

The Aztecs would slaughter thousands of human sacrifices to the gods in a single day.
Islam prescribes a woman half the worth of a man.
The Vikings thought raping and pillaging were the warrior’s path to heaven.
Hinduism has a caste system that literally designates hundreds of millions of people “Untouchables.”

When “woke” reporters try to push their crazy agenda on our children and call any American that supports MAGA terrorists this is how it looks like so it’s sometimes nice to see when they get a taste of their own medicine.

The wokies think they are the pinnacle of humanity. They think they speak for the marginalized and the oppressed. They think people look at them with respect and dignity.

The opposite is true. The world LAUGHS at us.

When I traveled to foreign countries, i researched the country to where I was going. Did research on their culture and rules. When I arrived I acted accordingly. In all my travels and they are many, never had a problem. I respected the country and its people. The word respect now does not exist in the USA!!!!

I’ve been all over the place, make sure I take my precautions but don’t necessarily ‘respect’ anything. In a pinch it likely won’t save you as much as being wary even if you scream how ‘good’ you’ve been.

I’ll disagree with the libs all day at home here in America, but this BS of supporting anti-democracy dictatorships or communist governments that squash free speech and enslave people just to stick it to the libs is just cowardly. F**k Qatar, I don’t give a rats a$$ if they’re laughing at us, a lion doesn’t concern itself with the opinions of rats. He’s an American overseas I’ve got his back no matter what, I’ll give ‘em an earful back home but no way I’m taking a s**t eating Qatari’s side over a fellow American, Republican or Democrat.

Well, that’s gang mentality that leads to lives of innocent countrymen lost. I assume when your kids come over to my house and I kick them out if they start trashing my home, you’ll have their back. Our country is way better off without the likes of you.

You are a fool. Have his back at home where you both belong. In fact try to have his back around me and both of you will be on your back. Show some respect or stay at home big fella.

Some people are too stupid to be left on their own and this dufuss is one of those people. It would have been fitting for them to lock him up for 30 days and burned all his clothes….

Aside from overestimating the brutal character of the Viking civilization (a common error, based on specious convention) this is an excellent essay. But the individual in question is not a reporter. He’s an extremist advocate. Ironically, Muslims should understand this.

Traveling to Asian, European, Middle East and South American countries calls for the traveler to learn the basic local laws and respect them. I always had advise from local personnel on what was not acceptable and a brief lesson on the country’s culture. Surprised this clown didn’t get harsher treatment. No sympathy.

The Qataris demonstrated true tolerance. It’s tolerance for people but not for their stupid ideas.

An American doesn’t display that kind of mental illnesses, but a democrat might.
