Nobodies trying to turn it into a race war. The following is just plain xenophobic and its unavoidable that he'll get called out on it.
"when there is an inevitable political/ physical war between that part of the Middle East when they stop becoming useful to the west, you can bet your life City will be used as political pawns that will be drained of life as a retaliation.
It'll be nothing more than they deserved for selling their soul to the devil. Wonder how many of City's supporters realise that if their owners could click their fingers tomorrow and create their ideal world, none of them would be in it? In fact, they'd all either be enslaved or actively terminated, depending on sex, religion, ethnicity and or sexual orientation."
It's also nothing to do with the topic in question which you are debating quite fairly without resorting to said measures. His whole argument is "Cites owners hate the minorities so that somehow equates to them being guilty of buying u18s from outside Europe needing a harsher punishment".
You keep saying that my post was xenophobic. Do you have any idea what Xenophobia is?
An example of a xenophobic post would be... "All Arabs don't approve of homosexuality, and would happily pass legislation to punish homosexuality by death." This is xenophobic as it wrongly perpetuates an incorrect and negative opinion based on Race/ Nationality.
However, if someone were to say "the unelected government of UAE (of which your owner is the deputy Prime Minister and Royal Family member) doesn't approve of homosexuality, and would happily pass legislation to punish homosexuality by death." This is not xenophobia, this is a fact.
Here is a link to a list of some of the things which are punishable by death in the state where your owner is deputy Primer Minister and active member of the Royal Family...

So included in the list are the following things..
1. Adultery. This not only encompasses having an extra-marital affair, but also extends to having sex outside of marriage. It is also worth noting that if a woman is raped in UAE the burden of proof is on her is to prove she was raped otherwise she can be tried for adultery.
2. Blasphemy. This includes showing contempt or lack of reverence to a Deity.
3. Apostasy. Abandonment or renunciation of a religion.
4. Homosexuality. Self explanatory.
Other more serious crimes are included on the list, but I won't mention them as they're not 100% relevant to the point I'm making.
So, how many of City fans, United fans, and pretty much the vast majority of western citizens (or cityzens
) would fall victim to at least one of these laws were they being ruled (undemocratically) by the people running Manchester City, and as a consequence be potentially subjected to the death penalty? I'd wager pretty close to all of them.
As a side note, here is the wikipedia page on human rights in the UAE...

So, as another poster said, you are using the race card here to try and villainise me in order to defend the disgraceful regime that you have running your football club. Not a single thing I said was xenophobic nor an attack against a race of people, it was an attack aimed at the hideous laws inflicted upon the citizens and visitors to the UEA by its unelected government (of which your owner is a senior member).
I do apologise for taking the thread off topic, but I'm not willing to have lazy accusations thrown at me by people who will do anything to deflect criticism.
