Whether it is in their culture or not it is a total lack of respect. Drinking beer is in our culture, try going over there and getting buckled. Disgraceful. |

Would have been nice if they'd honoured it, but it's out of order for the Australians to go ahead with the silence even when the Saudi federation said they didn't want one. If someone says they don't want a silence you don't hold one anyway.

Should never have been a minutes silence with SA involved.

It finished two-all. Pity that, as a win for the Aussies would have put them 3 points clear of the Saudis. As it stands, it's Japan, SA and Australia all on 16, but Japan with a game in hand. I'd like for the Aussies to get a top two finish for auto qualification.

I'm glad to see at least one of you is alert and spotted that deliberate mistake after just eight minutes. I can see I'm going to have to up my game. Sharp eye, Captain, sharp eye.

It's a horrible country which funds terrorists and invents idiotic ideologies like salafism and wahabism. I have never supported military intervention against those wackos in middle east but for once I almost feel an intervention against Saudi 40 years back might have meant a more peaceful world. This country should be called for its hideous bigotry against non-Muslims and women but instead Saudi gets the seat for seeing woman's rights. Like South Africa was boycotted during apartheid era, this country needs to be rejected by sensible countries. It's a country full of sh!thead rich people.

Theresa May and David Cameron before her, and no doubt many before them have been too busy selling Saudi Arabia arms to consider a boycott. The only thing I would say about the minute's silence, is there was a bomb in Kabul just hours before the London attack which killed many more people. Now if Australia are holding a minute's silence for the London victims, but ignoring the victims of many other atrocities, then it might feel a bit rich to some people in the world that they are only holding a minute's silence for the London victims. I understand why Australia and all Western countries would do this, the story is going to be a lot bigger when it effects a Western country. When you hear about an atrocity in Kabul or Allepo or anywhere else, chances are you will forget about it 5 minutes later, or not even click on the story or listen to it when it comes on the news. |

Well in fairness to the Aussies I can totally see why they chose to hold the minutes silence. Two of the deceased afterall were Australian citizens. |

Beside the point, but trying to read through that article was a chore. Daily Mail's website layout is appalling.

Here in the west, Muslims in the Middle East killed by terrorists (as well as innocents killed by our bombs) don't count. The double standard is predictable and sad. |

Nothing gonna change when our president literally bows down (or curtsies) to them. Unfortunately, the world as a whole has completely failed when it comes to dealing with Saudi. Stupid Trump humiliated the entire Muslims of world by calling for their ban from entry to USA but at the same time he shares warm friendship with powerful Saudi people and their horrible government. Even the previous democrat government was just the same about not criticising Saudi. But it's not just USA and UK, all the countries have failed to see the actual problem. It's Saudi which disturbs most of the peace of Muslim world by spreading their idiotic and regressive ideology. Sometime back an Indian maid was sexually molested by a rich man in Saudi. When she objected to his molestation he cut off one of her arms. India didn't raise this issue much simply because of stupid politics and fear that it will displease Muslims. Saudi government discriminates with non-Muslims at so many levels. Their justice system prescribes different punishments for the same crime for people of different groups. The best solution is to boycott this sh!t country but world keeps silent about them. I feel ashamed that we as world citizens have completely failed to do anything about this disgusting country. www.bbc.com/news/av/world-middle-east-34804892/the-indian-maid-who-had-her-arm-chopped-off-in-saudi-arabia |
