And Prince Ali takes his place ?

One Prince Ali takes the top spot of FIFA he will take the riens of power of the United Nations.

The rise of the Anti-Christ.

Something about prince Ali is not right.

Aw man, I wanted to see UEFA boycott Russia 2018 and hold their own shadow World Cup. That has to be the straw that broke the camel’s back.

I'll bet he found out that he's going to be indicted along with the others.

At the least, SOMETHING happened between his election and today......and it can't be good for him.

Or maybe he got paid off in some manner by those wanting to completely clean house so that they don't lose all those money-laden advertisers and sponsors.
