Rising Hegemon
But fortunately for FIFA it has no conscience...and a penchant for ironic comedy.
FIFA's financial monitoring panel has asked one of its members to explain his arrest in a corruption case.
Canover Watson was detained in his native Cayman Islands on Aug. 28 by police anti-corruption and financial crime units.
Local media reported that Watson was quizzed about alleged money laundering and abuse of public office.
News story should come with laugh track.
Oh, and speaking of corrupt people.
Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said that Iran "is a bigger problem than ISIS."So many targets, so many bombs, so many assholes willing to drop them.

"If you're not competent to bribe the right people so you don't get caught, you're not FIFA material."
Jesus H. Christ on a unicycle--you'd have to be profoundly, inordinately, unbelievably corrupt to get arrested for financial crimes in the Cayman Islands, the money laundering capital of the world.
As for war criminal Henry, he's representative of the entire foreign policy establishment in this country. He wants things just the way they were from 1953-1979--a reliable, strutting peacock of a monarch in Iran willing to give us most of the profits from Iran's oil and gas and to deal with dissent with an iron fist. To Kissinger, that's "stability" (read "safe for American multinationals to expropriate resources").
nothing like a lot of money to help get away w/ murder.
Kissinger? He's not dead yet?
