Iran withdrew the spot on men's 66kg. not sure if they notify IJF in time to replace him with someone else.

 

officially the guy Alireza Khojasted had "family issues" and didn't go to Rio but the truth is they made him withdraw because there is Israel is his weight. :wall: the same thing happened to Javad Mahjoub 4 years ago. and yes I know this is extremely stupid

 

I don´t really understand. The Irani let say had to withdrew when they meet Israeli or when Israeli just is competing in the same event ? becuse if it´s in the 2nd case there a risk also in weightlifting +105, isn´t ?

Let's by all means not forget that the athletes (and fans) are not those being stupid, but are being robbed and are victims of the situation..

 

I feel sad for this judoka, he gets robbed of a magnificent experience and there's nothing he can do about it.

the thing is , if they get the Israel athlete in 1st round he has to withdraw, and then IOC will investigate the situation and by not sending him, they already solved the problem.

 

weightlifting is not a problem , not a head-to-head sport. the only problem is men's 58kg Taekwondo and the Iranian there is the top favorite for the gold.

I think I got it now, so in fact only in a sport where are some decent or possible chances to have a meet.

 

Ok, thanks for the explanation :yes

Believe me that i'm all for separation of Sport and Politics and Fans and Athletes definetly shouldn't be the ones suffering, especially in the biggest event in the world! But that's not the reality we live in

One of the women in -52kg has withdrawn (don't know who), resulting in Belgian Ilse Heylen receiving an invitation last night....too late for her to travel to Rio (she hasn't been training, wouldn't make her weight etc), which means she is now living a sort of Olympic nightmare :(

I don't get it, why dropping? If there are political issues between the two countries, wouldn't be better to let them face each other? It's an opportunity for the nations to clash between each other without violence... This way it just seams iranians are running away from Israelits

    • KHL launches 3x3 championships with 8 teams, it starts on 19th December and finishes in July
    • I remember when I was a child and I was on holiday with my parents in Tunisia, I think in 1999? We were on a trip to the desert near the border with Algeria. The guide said something like that: Algeria is a few minutes from here but we won't go there because there is a war going on there and it's not safe.
    • Netanyahu is bad but unfortunately Hamas helps him maintain power. Every attack they make is a reinforcement of Netanyahu's rhetoric about the country's security, etc. In the fall of 2023, Netanyahu was already losing support and then suddenly a big Hamas attack on a festival near the Gaza Strip. Coincidence? It wouldn`t surprise me at all if Netanyahu knew about the plan for this attack but did nothing so that he would then have the tools to maintain his power. I also remember Ariel Sharon - he was probably even more radical than Netanyahu but he had a brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma.
    • Ah yes, post-colonial bickering never gets too old. Let me grab my popcorn!   Netanyahu is on a personal revenge mission to avenge his brother's death for his entire political life and people still act like they're surprised by his actions
    • MId-1962.  Almost all the Jews were driven out in a few days, even though they had been living there since Classical, pre-Muslim times.   Perhaps our friend could give us details of of any current Algerian plans to welcome them back, restore their property, guarantee their safety etc etc?    
    • In what year did Algeria free itself from French influence? 1960, exactly?
    • Or better, perhaps he'd like to tell us what happened to the 140,000 Jews who were living in Algeria in 1960, as against the 200 who live there now? 
    • There are still many people of Jewish origin in Central and Eastern Europe who have nothing to do with the state of Israel. What ties does Zelensky have to the state of Israel? Apart from he waś there as president of Ukraine and speaking in the Knesset? Nothing. In the power circles in Moscow there were/are many people of Jewish origin and what about that? A large part of the power apparatus of the USSR was based on Jews, especially in the years shortly after WWII.   Instead of constantly writing about Jews, would be better to tell me which country Algeria has better diplomatic relations with: Tunisia or Egypt?  
    • Handy guide for the perplexed.  
    • I`m a bit disappointed with the starts of the Italian team. I was counting on progress from last year. And here it looks like Bagnis is still very uneven. In Cortina there will be 3 competitions with medals to win and it would be a shame not to use our track to win 1-2 medals. The same goes for luge.
