Yeah, the guys from ITG are NOT huge Belarus fans. :lol:

Ah, ITG, who seem to have some sort of OCD which forces them to always have to write 'here', because for some reason they think their articles are more valuable if they write them from a hotel in the city of an event :d

 

Really the only sort of professional written media I know who always have to mention they are present :lol:

Still wondering, what happens if - say - the local bakery from an athletes' town who sponsors him/her posts "Congratulations on a great result in Japan!" and "Proud of Athlete, you've represented your country very well!"? Does the IOC have some sort of power to force said local bakery to do anything?

No, but the athletes may be punished. 
 

In reality, a local baker in Ireland or the Netherlands or wherever posting it won’t even be noticed. They’re more worried about adidas or nike and the major global marketers

Yeah this being against huge companies makes sense, but the IOC wouldn't be the IOC if they didn't make a huge deal about the local car repair shop posting something :p 

 

I wonder what punishment the athlete could get. I mean, surely they can't take away the results, so if an athlete is retiring anyway after the Olympics, what's to stop them? :d

      And before the Turkish empire it was another. And before that yet another. And yet another. And yet another. Always a good illustration of the never-ending killing of each other in especially that region. "The god in my stories is better, so we need to kill you and everyone around you" often being a central theme.     In short, nobody 'deserves' to be there (or anywhere in the world, for that matter) and definitely nobody right now can genuinely claim the land on historical grounds or anything (which apparently people often do), unless they're a proven descendant of the first cavemen and hunter-gatherers and such coming from Africa tens of thousands of years ago.

      Btw.  You should know that palestine is a made up country.   It never existed in history.  Before israel was awarded the land it was the British empire.  And before that the Turkish empire.    And you can google to see who was there before the turks.  But it was never palestine.   The people are Jordanian that Yasser Arafat took from Jordan because the king was killing them.   So if you're looking for a home, I would go to Jordan.   And Gaza was taken from Egypt in 1967.   Yet when sinai was given back, they never wanted Gaza.  I WONDER WHY!   so keep talking about a made up country that doesn't actually exist   Can wait to see your well thought and coherent response

      It was.  Lately is just tears of people who hate that we kill all their idols like Sinwar and Nasrallah.    It's surprisingly nutritious

      You are speaking like an imbecile in a forum in online, its not your grocery store or mosque in your third world village.   We have an identity.   I wouldn't expect you to know it.  But I'm happy to see you be miserable since we are killing each terrorist one by one. Just big red marks on the year book.    Keep going.  It's a boring time on an olympic games forum.   It's very amusing.

      I don't think dropping a bomb in the center of London would be beneficial to their position on the stage of global sports, but hey, who knows
