Ask FIFA to move World Cup 2018 to an area of the world that doesn't have a war zone on it's borders.

Created by C.C. on July 20, 2014

It doesn't matter what side you are on. Hosting the World Cup 2018 in a country that has a war on it's border it just to dangerous. There are many countries that have the infrastructure to handle the World Cup with 4 years notice. Not asking FIFA to move the World Cup is not only dangerous is shows a lack of resolve to keep not only American citizens safe, but also the many developing countries citizens who couldn't afford extra security needed to go into a war zone. Soccer (football) is a sport that is able to be played no matter the wealth of the nation, and keeping that should be #1 priority for FIFA, the US and the rest of the civilized world. Extra security would cost out many of the developing nations.
