What kind of world do we live in that sports players have to make these statements instead of members of government doing whats needed.
Sports players have a chance to give a message to a very large group of people. More people will see this then if an Iranian member of parliament makes a protest and Iran has condemned the attack numerous times
Hmm i don't wanna make a statement on the matter.
Brother, that is literally your job.
