Benders Like Beckham

The first article I ever wrote for Taki’s was about the men’s 2022 soccer World Cup held over in Qatar, complaining about how the whole event had been turned into a vast moral circus in which the true contest was now between white Western liberals competitively lecturing Arabs about ...
