comment by Robbing Hoody - I want to play by my own rules and if I can’t I’ll sue you (U6374)


This is a thread about Israel. That’s why people are not talking about China. Want to expand that into China? Write an article. Regardless, it doesn’t alter a single thing to do with Israel.



----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not a thread about Israel, it's a thread about whether Israel should be banned you daft khunt.

So entrenched in your anti-israel identity that you can't understand that olympic bannings are political decisions. If they were made on the basis of persecution against humanity then China, Qatar, India etc. would also be banned along with the UK after the Iraq War.

So yes, Israel should be banned, but also, several other Countries.

But given that the precedent for banning is political then the obvious conclusion is nobody should be banned from the Olympics.

I will never quite understand the partisan nature of debate regarding this conflict. Why is there such a polarised view on this? Is it not possible to sympathise with both sides stuck in the middle of wars such as this? I see marches in the western world crying 'free palestine' with not so much as a sniff of a reference to the atrocities on October 7th.

Articles such as this one are nothing more than grand-standing by resident virtue-signallers. Utter nonsense.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think many of us do sympathise with both sides, unfortunately you have a few on here that have shown for years that they are sympathetic to terrorism.

You really have sbsolurely zero humility do you.

Hot on the heels of being proven to literally make things up and then get upset about it, you’ve moved into pedantry.

It’s stuff like this which is why everyone mocks you.

Have a nice weekend.

Too adult? No. Good grief, has there ever been anyone on here with such an inflated opinion of themselves, but for so little reason.

You literally made a load of stuff up, and rather than just apologise, you’ve double downed on it

You’re really not very bright.

How many of these are firing ballistic missiles at schools, hospitals and refugee shelters whilst killing thousands of civilians in retaliation for a terrorist attack?

so you're actually attempting to determine a threshold for olympic bannings based on the level of inflicted suffering against humanity

hows that defined then?

Haha TopForm has cracked. What the AF are you babbling on about now?

Look, you’ve been made to look incredibly stupid, a demonstrable liar and you clearly have absolutely no integrity.

Just apologise and then come back with yet another username in the hope people don’t recognise you.

Hope you’re okay.

Pathetic. Come back when you van give a reason for a million people being put in a correction camp not being a reason for being banned from the olympics.

The fact Israel are participating despite there have been nations in the past and present banned shows the special privileges afforded to Israel that other nations aren't.

These are the sort of hypocrisy that show that such organisation are and always will be of a colonial mindset.

Exactly, it's a political decision. Half the world thought the US should be banned from it.

Nobody should be banned because human beings are too biased.

Sorry for pointing put a pretty obvious correlation between the actions of Russia and Israel. I'd bet of China started firing missiles at Taiwan killing civilians discussion would be had about using a ban from the Olympics as a form of sanction.

The main thing is probably Palestine are represented at the Olympics, as are Ukraine. Is it fair their athletes are forced to compete against Russian or Israeli athletes?

Some Israeli athletes at the Olympics are also enrolled in the IDF.

Top form

Should IDF soldiers be given 6 weeks off from bombing schools and refugee camps, tying Gazans to car bonnets & killing civilians and hostages to compete at the Olympics in front of billions?

Strange question when I'm not the one trying to determine a persecution threshold for olympic bannings her.

If you want to claim Israel should be banned but not others then it's up to you to determine that threshold.

Not sure why you think a Country which makes a billion people second class citizens, puts them behind bars in factories, and puts over a million in them in correction camps should be allowed to attend though. Is that because you're fond of cheap goods?

Also I'm not sure why you keep calling me Top form. It's not like the guy was banned from this forum.

Admittedly banned nations from the Olympics may not take it lying down. This has to be Russia doesn't it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Olympics started it. France deserves whatever it gets now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I agree, same with those involved in the Manchester Airport situation,
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What happened there? I just saw some guy getting kicked in the head by a white christian. What happened before that?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

4 takeaway workers kicked off with airport security, and later police after their Mom was asked to go through security.

I will never quite understand the partisan nature of debate regarding this conflict. Why is there such a polarised view on this? Is it not possible to sympathise with both sides stuck in the middle of wars such as this? I see marches in the western world crying 'free palestine' with not so much as a sniff of a reference to the atrocities on October 7th.

Articles such as this one are nothing more than grand-standing by resident virtue-signallers. Utter nonsense.

Some of us decent people feel for the victims on all sides, others just do what they were taught in the Madarasas

How many Uyghurs are competing at the Olympics and under what flag? The same for migrant workers in Qatar, or Muslims in majority Hindu India?

If you can't make the distinction between domestic ethnic human rights issues and abuses and international conflict between two nations then you must be a bit dim.

I know of no other regime that says children and babies are targets.

Israel is a special kind of evil.

Oh I see so your threshold is now that it must involve international conflict between two nations

So South Africa shouldn't have been banned then?

Why do you keep answering a question with a question?

The main issue is should Palestinian or Ukranijan competitors be made to compete against Israeli or Russian competitors?

They've allowed some Russians to compete under a neutral flag.
