Apart from its political effects, one thing is sure, this will irritate the people and will spark the strong unprecedented anti US feelings among Iranians.
Fardanews reports, WSJ in an article by
Patrick Clawson, Deputy Director for Research of
Washington Institute for Near East Policy, suggests that US adminstration would prevent Iran's soccer team from participating in
Germany 2006 world cup. I havent WSJ account, so havnt access to the article (
8/22/05, WSJ, "Iran and Diplomacy"). It will
be appreciated if someone copy and paste the mentioned article here to discuss about the argumentations of it.
