They can’t even ban Russia after all their shit.

I do think the IOC should consider forcing Israeli and Palestinian athletes to compete under the Olympic Flag if this isn’t resolved in the next few months (in way that doesn’t involve total destruction of one side).

I don’t think that will be fair & anyway once you go down that route, it will be just not Palestine or Israel . You would need to consider Azerbaijan/ Armenia . Lebanon, Kosovo/ Serbia. Pakistan/India/ China/ USA 

IOC need not get into this political mess rather they should make it clear Olympics is not a place to carry out political protests. 
It us not IOC’s job to take sides or call out who is right or wrong. 
If indeed a world War breaks out , sports & olympics will be irrelevant!

Presidential elections in  finally arrived... here are provisional results (but already a big % of the vote computed):

 

Sergio Massa ("Unión por la Patria", the ruling centre left party) 36%  

  

Javier Milei ("La libertad avanza", far right) 30%  

  

Patricia Bullrich ("Juntos por el Cambio", Centre right) 23%  

  

Other minor parties combined: 9%.  

   

  

There will be a run-off in November between Massa and Milei.

I only used the descriptions that majority of political analysts (both national and foreign) would use to label these parties.   

  

Btw you should cheer up, it's still perfectly possible for Milei to win (ofc I wouldn't want it, but it's a realistic scenario still).

from what i have been reading for years now, Massa is considered a "center-right"(Federal) peronist. Kirchner and his wife were left wing peronists. Correct me if i am mistaken. . .
