Brazil to win the World Cup.\n\nContenders to their throne would be England, Argentina, Germany, Italy, Holland and look to the Czech Republic to do well.\n\nBest players will include Ronaldinho(Bra), Beckham(Eng), Henry(Fra) and Nedved(Cze).

No, the USA should not be banned from the World Cup in 2006.  Let's review:\n\n1- Nuclear activities and weapons - name a country who DOESN'T.\n2- Vietnam War is OVER, thank you!\n3- Involving in some coup - yeah, trying to END them.\n4- Hiroshima and Nagasaki - yeah, that was major, but they attacked Pearl Harbor FIRST, and we've since made reparations.\n5- Israel crimes support - we don't condone any crimes!\n6- Afghanistan attack - uhm, we are at war with them, what'd did you expect us to do?  Throw underwear at them?\n7- Iraq occupation - see answer #6.\n8- HR violation - yes, that was a mistake on our part, but again, what country is truly innocent of activities like this?\n9- HR violation - see #8.\n10- Supporting insurgents in Cuba - I'm not all that thrilled with Castro....\n11- To meddle in other countries' affairs - we're one of the top world powers, we're simply trying to HELP.\n12- Black rights violation - uhm, slavery ended YEARS ago... and there are some countries that STILL do it!\n\nShould we keep England out of it?  They waged war with us back in the 1770's, you know.  Or how about Germany?  They started WW II- Italy as well should be kept out of it, they joined Germany.  Ireland has been known to be infighters.  Iran and Iraq have attacked Israel for many millenia - maybe all three should be kept out of the World Cup too!  \n\nThe whole point is, America isn't the Big Bad Guy everyone outside the country thinks it is....  we're doing our best, and wish that other nationalities would understand that because of our diversity and mixture here, that we are more accepting of the world than others....\n\nSoccer is a world sport, and if everyone can enjoy it, why not use it as a vehicle to better world relations instead of freezing someone out of the competition because of their nationality?\n\nAnd yes, I'm American.

Hey, it may be a good thing if there is another country out there that would support us once the USA is a third world nation due to the massive amount of people allowed or not allowed to migrate. After all we've supported everyone else for a very long time while our own citizens suffer from hunger and neglect so I suppose turn around would be fair. I'd like to sit on my a_s and have the 'good' working people of some far off land give me shelter, food and free medical care.

HELL NO!!! Use that money to repair the stuff in New Orleans, or get ready for disasters. There's other money making ideas out there. Most sports owners are corrupt, and it would be way unfair to the public if their tax dollars are going to fund some sports arena. What if they don't like sports???

yes. we want our country to participate also.\n\nThe more number of teams and groups, the more complicated the game. This increases our interest in the game.\n\nthats wat we think

Same reason why we have the olympics to re-unify the world and create a link between different countries. It's also just competitive nature and countries wanting to be better than the others, patriotism and supporting your country, take your pick

Seeing as how I agree with every point you've stated............\n\nI believe we should assist those countries that are willing to support our nation's goal of world stability.

Any autonomous or semi-autonomous entity should be allowed to participate in the world cup as long as they have their own governing body of representation on some level and are registered with FIFA.  \n\nJust ask Puerto Rico (when they used to qualify instead of the USA, that is).

I am glad that South Africa is hosting the 2010 World Cup.  But I take it with a grain of salt.  I think FIFA wants an African host, but doesn't have the confidence in most African nations to be capable of hosting such a large international event.  It is unfortunate because of all the great soccer nations in Africa, South Africa is not on the top of my list.

Hi there!\n\nBBC is transmitting since march 2006 a series of documentaries about World Cup Stories. \n\nEach program focuses on one nation's World Cup achievements, contrasting victories and defeats on the field with events and influences off it ( such as war, economic and political instabilities, etc).\n\nSince is World Cup's year, why don't you choose Football, more precisely the World Cup, as a great occasion to be your main theme ?\n\nIf you need inspiration, I suggest you try to watch specially these 2 documentaries ( they are pretty cool ):\n\nBrazil: The Golden Team\nThink of the World Cup and you automatically think of Brazil. \n\nWe tell the story of how, inspired by the incredible talents of two of the greatest footballers of all time, Pele and Garrincha, Brazil put behind it one of the World Cup's greatest upsets to dominate the competition over the last 50 years. \n\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nArgentina: From Darkness Into The Light\n\nWe see how Argentina emerged from the suffering of military dictatorship and the Falklands War to find a new national self-confidence in the 1980s inspired by the genius of Diego Maradona. \n\nFor more information you can try to access this page:\n\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/4977066.stm\n\nOr just go to bbc.com \n\nI hope this can help you.\n\nGood Luck !\n\nClaire ;P
