I always found giving free wins to be an odd form of protest, but y'all do y'all.

 

Protesting the system by paying extra taxes, protesting the use of chemicals on farms by giving them extra trucks of chemicals to use, and so on  

 

But yeah, it is what it is...

I understand correctly - if not w/o your athlete will have definetely end career if he will fight with Israeli guy?

That's crazy.

You do realize that competing agasint an athlete in the Olympics doesn't mean you recognize that their country is a country, right? Lots of countries don't recognize or , and don't recognize each other (and are technically still at war), and compete against each other, and of coutse there are quite a few NOCs that don't represent countries at all!

 

being banned from competing in the Olympics would be an actual statement, but just giving their athletes free wins seem conterproductive.

 

No point in drinking poison and hoping your enemy dies IMO.

Already happened with another judoka in Tokyo , he got 10 years of ban ,the most shocking thing is : both are the best judoka in their generation ...looks like a conspiracy to destroy our best athletes

And nobody is saying in Algeria that is too much for this? That's only sport. You had some bigger discussion?
