Look I could told you about how the sport has increased in popularity over the last 2 years and how 3 new pitches are being built or renovated and how the field in Misgav is a place for Druze Arabs and Jewish kids to get together and play and bond over being all Israelis, and I could tell you how they are all thrilled about the National team and how the fact that it’s the first team since 1976 that going to the Olympics so the whole country is looking forward to cheer them up, but hey clearly you know everything with your borderline comments and pathetic try to make sad point that is false narratives and unwitting and unfunny

Admit it -the so called Israeli baseball team is an all American team of people who happen to be Jewish 

Maybe in theory the Vatican could field a similar team of American Catholics 

Actions like this are making a mockery of the Olympics

i'll ask you this ,what makes you indian for that matter and if an Indian is born in the UK for example or even in the KASHMIR reigon, whats makes american an american?, and if an Indian is born in the US is he has to choose nationality or can he has both?, Israel has a law based in 1950 "the law of return" in order to play for the team you must be an Israeli citizen and the *entire team* has one, this are the facts i'm sorry that no one said in 1950 "listen let's drop this law because Rajiv from inida is not keen about it"  your country has the 2nd largest population and yet currently les then a 100 athleats Q, and the fact India and Israel had the same ammount of Medals in Rio, while you had 124 athleats, you complain about Israel having "too much american" Italy "bringing asian for table tennis" and yet some how it will not earase the fact that it is rather for you to focus on your own problems in order to improve, rather crying about everyone else...

So i will not admit something false they are all Israelis by law israeli and by the IOC's

 

 

*edit note* I really like India and has nothing against it, the opposite is true, and I’ll use to apologise if anyone got offended by anything I wrote, but the constant criticism that was made ,is far more than should be acceptable here, as we all here for the common love of the Olympics games and our countries and wish them both the best so from here I wish India (and everyone else good luck at the games and hopefully improve from last games and get where you should be( but hopefully not on Israel’s expense ))
