Comments: I wonder if it is close to the FIFA World rankings? Top 4 were the same as the rankings but I’m curious to see who did better or worse. Iran, obviously, did worse.
Comments: Here is the final rankings of the WC teams. Obviously Iran finished in #33 but we should really be at #15 ![[biggrin]](https://cdn.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif "Big Grin - :D") https://www.instagram.com/p/DbA6cBITvW9/
Comments: The situation regarding the war is becoming clear. IRI sees this as the last war they want to be involved in. They realize no peace plan will guarantee peace in the future unless US leaves the Middle East. Without US in the region, Israel has to come to terms that it is alone and needs to behave like a regular country and not constantly fighting its neighbors to get more land. IRI and IRGC will fight this war until the bitter end. Use any means possible not to end this like many other wars in the region. Never ending wars!
Comments: No plans to visit SoCal in near future but I will definitely let you know if one comes up. In the meantime, enjoy https://www.instagram.com/reel/Da8Smo8oJSp/
Comments: I am also game for a retreat with friends here. I am usually available. Agha Shahryar mamnoon for the prediction contest. It was fun. Especially watching Faramarz and Zinsky duel it out.
Comments: Netanyahu ‘will not be arrested while in the US’, says TrumpThe Israeli PM “will not be arrested, in any way, shape, or form, while in the United States of America”, Trump says in a social media post. It comes after New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani said he was consulting with city authorities over the possibility of arresting Netanyahu if he visits the city for the United Nations General Assembly in September.
Comments: Shahryar thank you for making the prediction contest. It was fun n I am game for a lunch/dinner meeting. I travel a bit n so as long as I am in town I can join.
Comments: “Spain, they loved me. They loved me up there; they kept saying ‘why don’t you stay for the photo?’ and I was like, geez, maybe I should stay. And the crowd loved it; the people were cheering for me, they loved it, and quite frankly, everybody loved it.” His POV, probably. Donald Trump’s appearance on the field after the FIFA World Cup final quickly became one of the day's biggest talking points. Cameras followed him as he joined FIFA president Gianni Infantino and players during the trophy presentation. A viral moment happened when Trump stayed on stage as the champions celebrated, prompting many online to argue that attention was being taken away from the players during their key moment. Videos showed confused reactions from players and awkward interactions during the medal and trophy ceremony, spreading rapidly across social media and sparking further debate. Fans praised Trump’s presence at one of the world’s biggest sporting events, while critics questioned whether a political figure should be so involved in the on-field celebrations. His close ties with FIFA leadership also became a major topic, with many citing his visible role during the ceremony as proof of that connection. Whether seen as historic or controversial, Trump’s appearance drew millions of online views and became one of the defining off-field stories of the 2026 FIFA World Cup final. The New World Order, the Epstein Class, the Trilateral Commission, "The Illuminati," the Powers That Be, or whatever you want to call the deep state controllers of the world are now clear to see! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DbAc9gABfyE/
Comments: Zinsky, you will be missed for sure. Are there any plans to visit southern California in the future?
Comments: US of A is up against history. Only once, a religious war has ever been lost. There is a reason for that. The one exception is when one religion went after another in the crusades which resulted in 5 Moslem victories and three christian ones. In all other times the religious side has won or at least not lost. The united states chose to invoke religion in the region in the 70's and now is fighting it. IMO this is a tall order. There may be a battle or two here or there that US may win but the total war is a loss. Many already are predicting it.
Comments: There is no backing down from IRI! “If they break their oaths after their covenant and attack your religion, then fight the leaders of disbelief; indeed, they have no oaths; perhaps they will cease,” the IRGC said in its statement, quoting the Quran. The IRGC added that “this is our land” and that the “terrorist American army from thousands of kilometers away has no legal legitimacy and will definitely be confronted.” The IRGC’s claim comes after Iran-backed Houthi militants in Yemen said they were imposing a naval blockade on Saudi Arabia, Reuters reported. Iran had called on the Houthis to block the Bab el-Mandeb Strait linking to the Red Sea if the U.S. continued to pummel Iran’s electrical infrastructure.
Comments: Send me the bill, I’ll send you a check, maybe 🤔 I really wish I could come and see you guys. Enjoy yourself and keep my seat empty!
Comments: To be honest, we do not have good chelokabAbi is SD either. So, I am looking forward to having a good chelokabAb as much (if not more ![[tongue]](https://cdn.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/tongue.gif "Tongue - :p") ) as meeting you guys. Zinsky, if you do not fly in for the gathering we will send you the bill.
Comments: Zinsky, there is a consolation prize for you. Even though, I picked ARG-Spain final with Spain winning (you had Spain over Brazil), you won our 2 man group in the online pool competition I posted (I came second in our 2 person group ).
Comments: Shahryar jan, thank you for your efforts and dedication. It really added some fun to otherwise stressful situation of motherland. I am in SoCal and cannot wait to have a meetup in LA and/or SD. It would be a nice break and pleasure to meet everyone.
Comments: But if you guys want to get together and discuss my demise, I have no objections 😁😁😁just جای من را خالی کنید! I really miss having some good chelo kabab. There are 6-7 Persian restaurants here but none can cook a decent food! I’m not sure how/why but I have stopped wasting my time and money on them. I make some mean kabobs in the backyard for the family and friends which I’ve been told is better than anything they have tasted!!! I might take another risk and open a restaurant! Never mind! I don’t want to work anymore. Retirement is just too comfortable…
Comments: “It is one of those mysteries of the universe. ” Not really! 🤭🤭🤭I just took chances and it didn’t pay off! That’s the story of my life. Many risks, some rewards and some not so great! No complaints…
Comments: "but not much else!!!" ![[rofl]](https://cdn.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/rofl.gif "Rofl - :lol:") I know exactly what you mean.
Comments: Kidding aside, Shahryar jan, thank you for all the effort. The contest gave life to the page once again. And I got to know some friends who have been visiting but remained quiet. I hope they keep participating in the conversation here. Farid-LA definitely deserves some sort of a price. He was the top ranked in both tables. Farid-LA aziz, I hope you stick around. You even beat lol's almighty connection when he overeats. That is something!
Comments: Shahryar, I’m in Boston area. I do miss the weather and good Persian food but not much else!!! |
