How Kim Kardashian Saved a National Team

  • This is almost certainly not the headline you thought you were going to see when you came onto CZcams today but I am happy I could provide something out of the box. Kim Kardashian, of the mighty Kardashian clan, actually was integral in saving under-threat youth that were part of a national team setup in Afghanistan.
    That is a 100% true statement and that in itself is insane, but the whole story involves so many other characters that you have to watch the video to believe it. It sounds like a ‘walking into a bar’ joke and then turns into a heartwarming story about saving people who just love to play soccer and deserve the chance to play.
    Much Love,
    The Zealand

      Well perhaps the government should do something about the boat migrants like sending them back home rather than putting them up in hotels. Skepticism of real refugees is the unfortunate consequence of not protecting your borders and housing fake refugees (no one from Albania is a refugee for instance). Doesn't help people like Gary Lineker likening not taking in everyone in the world with the Holocaust.

      Hum, likely not, you may say whatever about their antics, the kardashians likely have other similar stories in stores (first of all because it's good for their brand). Kim could have just passed the hot potato to someone else, make the connect, and call it a day. She didn't, she took her responsibility as a rich female entertainer who fancies herself a role model and she footed the bill and made sure 130+ people would get to safety. That's not just 'fair play', that's character (development, in her case).
