He talks in English , this is about An Israeli former soldier saying exactly what they do in daily basis in West Bank, I saw a video from a western mainstream that was taken from years at least 15 years or something the guy told the presenter the same thing is that Israeli soldiers are in his house and he can't talk to him or go outside the house I put as a story in Instagram so its gone but u guess I know where to find it

These guys are definitely worth listening to. One Israeli man, whose young daughter was killed in one of many suicide bombings, and one Palestinian man, whose young daughter was one of many innocent victims of the Israeli army. They're both prominent members of a group of people consisting of both Israeli and Palestinian people who lost children during the decades of violence and together try to raise a voice in somehow, maybe trying to improve the situation somewhat (with especially this Israeli and this Palestinian guy often travelling around the world together to spread their message, but they're working with a lot more Palestinian and Israeli parents who want the same thing: a stop to all the back-and-forth violence).

 

With their main message basically saying: "everyone who lives in the area has full right to live in this area, but we all have to make a choice: either we share the land, or we share the cemetary under the land. Any other option isn't going to happen, because both of us aren't going to go away, so we should all stop the 'your people don't belong here' rethoric and start talking." These guys aren't people who just appeared now by the way, they've been doing this for many years now.

But western countries  condanm Palestinians only while they are colonised , they fight to survive they are tortured/killed everyday from 1948 not only during this raid , enemies stole their houses+land+money by force ...when they resist they call them "terrorists"

It's way too late , Israelis will calm down when their hostages return , but what palestenians ? How will u convince an only survivor of his family that was erased whether lost his wife and all his children or the kid that lost his father , mother and all his brothers and sisters not to revenge , how will u convince him of peace when he saw Israelis do all this damage when 1000 or 1200 of them died that almost the number of palestenians die every year or something by Israel among last 75 years , I fear we have reached a dead block here , Israel wants all palestine like always. Then they will want Sinai like always also. Iraq , Lebanon. Syria ,and If we can't colonize these places let's make it a piece of hell. Israel now doesn't want peace with Arabs and this will not change even if Netenyahu leaves because nothing changed over the years with different people taking charge and Arabs hatred toward them increased 500 % and same to Israelis as well , violence plant much more violence , I hope that some wise people will say enough is enough and decide the 2 counties solution with giving Palestenians their land before 1967 war , but that definitely will not happen soon. In this world u only listen to people when they have power and thus none will listen to Palestenians and even this sympathy will dissappear with the coming days or months , like what happened with Ukraine , very few people still care about Russian Ukrainian war

    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
    • hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?
    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota?
