It has no soccer history, no soccer league and prospects of either. It would be the worst WC in recent memory.

Qatar as host nation would be everybody's favorite opponent however.

Estimates are that 4000 workers will die by the time the stadiums are finished.

Life is quite cheap in Qatar. Like Europe or the Americas in the 1800s

Suicide rates are also shamefully high. Qatar is a human rights disgrace.

I think the only way the location gets changed is for top nations to start
