But these days, alongside images of the Rio bloodshed, there's an uncommon sight that even Brazilian politicians apparently can't ignore: the nation's World Cup-champion football team Sporting Fome Zero (Zero Hunger) T shirts in support of leftist President Luiz In á cio Lula da Silva's ambitious antipoverty program.
