Everyone has spoken out about the IOC, and so will we (Today in the “It’s different” section — perhaps a contender for the title of champion. The International Olympic Committee warned athletes against discrimination against Israel, DPA reports.
According to the publication, the reason for this is the military conflict in the Gaza Strip. The IOC said athletes cannot be held responsible for the actions of their governments. The IOC intends to promptly stop all such cases of discrimination.
No, we are accustomed to the fact that world sports organizations are masters of double standards, but we were even somewhat taken aback by the fair statement that athletes are not responsible for the actions of politicians. Especially after the ugly tentpole with the admission of Russian youth teams to international competitions and its hasty cancellation.
It’s clear what you want to say — but at least others would choose the wording, blushing and stuttering! It is clear that the Israelis are inviolable, you cannot force them to perform without a flag and anthem, you cannot exclude them from competitions, and for an attempt not to shake hands, as after the duel between Russian and Ukrainian fencers, the sanctions will be harsh. And yet: how do you now explain that some athletes are responsible for their government, while others are not at all? And we still don’t remember the great Yugoslavia team of 1992 — a country that did not attack anyone, but was torn apart by a civil war within itself. The national team was deprived of a place at Euro-92 because it was just like that. Denmark, which took its place, became European champion.
In general, in the West there is a slight panic at how the rhetoric towards the Russian Federation began to look with the start of a new Middle East war.
The Financial Times writes that the reaction to the Hamas attack and Israel’s promise to retaliate against the Gaza Strip has unraveled months of work to portray Moscow as a global pariah for violating international law. The US, EU and their allies are accused of hypocrisy.
“We have definitely lost the battle for the Global South. All the work we did with the Global South [on Ukraine] was lost. Forget about the rules, forget about the world order. They will never listen to us again. What we said about Ukraine also applies to the Gaza Strip. Otherwise we will lose all our authority. Brazilians, South Africans, Indonesians: why should they even believe what we say about human rights?” said one senior G7 diplomat.
Are you uncomfortable, gentlemen? We understand, it looks a little stupid.)
Yes, the Olympic Committee, which, as we know from the words of our officials for the last 30 years, is outside of politics, has shown its true face — it turns out that all their athletes are equal, but some are more equal. Just as all states are equal, but some cannot be deprived of their anthem and flag, because this is “Naziism”, “fschizm” and “generally impossible”.
It is impossible in that modest number because corporations headed by Jews are the sponsors of the IOC, but the main thing is that the USA took the side of Israel and everyone who is against are enemies, and the IOC cannot be an enemy of the USA, the IOC is the USA, or rather its small branch.
Is this news to anyone? No, this has been openly discussed since Salt Lake City in 2002, when our skaters were taken and tried at the request of the United States. Then there were a good hundred articles and speeches, where “respected people” directly spoke about the “factor of international sports in geopolitics” and its use as a “weapon”.
The only ones who did not want to accept reality, flying on pink ponies in the clouds or who understood what was happening too well and simply built their careers, were our sports officials who openly agreed to humiliation, insults, spitting, deprivation of the symbols of their state and, as a result, demands to condemn own people.
Did they understand what the result would be? We hope that yes, and this was a conscious activity against Russia for the money of the Russians. Otherwise, everything there is at the level of Dima Guberniev, who until the last day believed that Russia was “shit”, and there all the decent people poop violets.
Now the West is not even setting double standards, but directly indicating the “place” of Russian officials. who are “unworthy” to be Jews and then you can deal with them in any way and in any position. But this cannot be done with Jews — they are theirs, they asked for them…
We are strangers, just as we were and remain. But we will still cry, inject drugs, pay and crawl on our knees, if only the white gentlemen are allowed to show themselves and their tame “athletes”. For what? Now it’s completely unclear. Apparently because they can’t come up with anything else there anyway.
