Iran's sports minister says country won't participate in World Cup, throwing LA matches in limbo
Iran's sports minister said playing in the tournament is out of the question as the U.S. bombing campaign continues.

On Wednesday, the country's sports minister, Ahmad Donyamali, told state television that the country's team would not participate in the tournament in the U.S. “considering this corrupt regime has assassinated our leader,” according to the New York Times.
