Nobody says that. I don't know about Farah and Ahmed, but I know Hassan didn't run seriously back home and only picked it up in the Netherlands. Might be the same for the rest. It's not about nations, it's about individual athletes.

They don't if they're from nations in perpetual civil war like Somalia. Nations like Kenya and Ethiopia have strong athletics infrastructure and support programs in place.
