Pro-Hamas Protesters Want Olympics To 'Limit' Israeli Athletes In Paris

Pro-Hamas protesters are making all kinds of goofy demands — like saying they demand to be given food and water because they're on the campus meal plan, nevermind that they unlawfully took over a building — and now they want the Israeli athletes to be banned from the upcoming Summer Olympics in Paris.

According to the Associated Press, some 300 protesters gathered outside of the Paris Organizing Committee in the Paris suburb of Saint-Denis to demand that they "limit" Israel's participation in the Games.

Of course, by "limit" they mean ban, and they're pointing to the IOC's ruling on Russian and Belarusian athletes as their reason why this should be the case… because they're morons.

"They didn’t need more than four days to decide to ban Russia and Belorussia (Belarus) from the Olympics after the invasion of Ukraine,"  Nicolas Shahshahani, a member of the EuroPalestine activist group, said at the protest this week. "They are prepared to welcome the Israeli delegation."

Did Nicolas go to Columbia? He sounds like he may have.

Anyway, the situation with Russia and Belarus is completely different than the one with Israelis, and anyone whose frontal lobe hasn't been eaten away by ultra-leftwing politics and antisemitism realizes this.

Russia invaded Ukraine — and got an assist from Belarus — in a bid to take over parts of the country pretty much unprovoked. That led to a pretty swift ban for Russian athletes. 

Of course, it didn't help their case that Russian athletes hadn't been able to compete under their own flag for a few years before that because of state-sanctioned doping.

So, Russian athletes and the Russian delegation had a short leash.

Israel, on the other hand, is fighting back to free hostages and stop a terrorist organization that came across the border entirely unprovoked and killed 1,200 civilians.

Do you see the difference?

We've got lunatics making demands, and hopefully, the Olympic powers that be will take them as seriously as the rest of us do — which is not at all — and we'll see Israeli athletes competing this summer.
