IF YOU AREN'T A NATION...:

Syrian anthem played for Lebanese (BBC, 6/09/08)

Saudi Arabian football authorities are investigating an error that led to the Syrian national anthem being played before a match against Lebanon.

Several Lebanese players were visibly angry when the wrong anthem was played before Saturday's game, reports say.


...why even have a national anthem?

Better for them to have played "Love Train" or "National Brotherhood Week".

But it was a pretty good dig, eh?
