The playing style of Algeria often values flair, creativity, and individual skill. This emphasis on creativity encourages players to express themselves on the field, try new moves, and take risks, which can lead to more skillful and inventive play. I see the desert foxes holding onto and possessing the ball more. What Our boys need to do is carry on from friday's performance and look out for the 12th man to down Algeria . Namboole must scream to rally our own troops.A home game and a home crowd,any opponent can fall here . Prediction: The last time the desert foxes visited Kampala,in 1998 ,Hassan Mubiru's brace downed Algeria. This time,we dont have that calibre of an attacker,who can easily bully defenders,but then again, our boys have some silky play in them and if they can pick out Fahad Bayo quicky and perfectly,we could have something to cheer. But ,wait a second.The Desert Foxes are hungry,after having lost at home on Friday,they are going to give it a fight . 1-1.

A video documenting the Israeli army's conversion of a football field in the Gaza Strip into a military base and a detention center. The video documents the arrest of hundreds of men, children, and the disabled. The video even documented an Israeli soldier kidnapping an infant from her family. The Israeli army targeted and killed hundreds of Palestinian athletes, and 90% of the sports facilities in the Gaza Strip were destroyed, and the remaining 10% were converted into military bases and detention and torture centers. With all the incidents of crime and attacks on athletes and sports facilities, Israel is allowed to compete in FIFA tournaments and they are allowed to participate in the Olympics. This is a disgrace to sports and international sports organizations. This is crime and terrorism against athletes and sports organizations. How long will the hypocrisy and double standards adopted by FIFA and the Olympics continue? How long will they ignore this crime and terrorism? How long will the silence continue?

The four-day truce between Israel and Hamas brokered by Qatar brings to light the Gulf state's internationally renowned reputation as a peace-seeking honest-broker. Like many small states, Qatar takes advantage of its smallness to project influence and levy status as a mediator, promoting liberal internationalist norms, to further its interests in a geopolitical region which is averse to such activity. Qatar furthers its foreign policy interests by projecting itself as a western-leaning, forward-thinking and innovative state in comparison to other Gulf States. Similar behaviour can be seen during in the Doha Agreement between the US and Taliban representatives and even through hosting the 2022 FIFA World Cup. I explore this theme and other small state behaviour in the below essay looking at how small states are able to utilise strategies which safeguard their autonomy, build resilience and project influence on a regional and international level. #qatar #nationalsecurity #smallstates

While America has agreed to sell 40 F-35s to Greece for 6.8 billion dollars, it wants to sell 40 F-16 Vipers to Greece's enemy, #turkey , in a $23 billion contract, and a kit to convert the current 79 F-16s into Give them Viper too This issue can start a new round of the arms race between Greece and Turkey, the profits of which will go back into the pockets of American arms companies.
