VIDEO – How It’s Done: Israeli Athlete Shows the Anti-Semites
As you probably know, the International Olympic Committee, once again–as with every single Olympic Games from 1972 on–has refused to memorialize the Israeli athletes murdered at the 1972 Munich Olympics by Palestinian Islamic terrorists, and this latest refusal is for the 2012 Games. They’d rather not offend the Muslims than do the right thing, as the Olympic Games has a history of anti-Semitism. Israel cannot even compete against Muslim countries in the early rounds and must compete in the “European” division so as not to offend the Muslims. It’s something I’ve complained about for decades, including in the video below. Given this context, it’s even more heartwarming to watch the actions of Moran Samuel, an Israeli athlete who won a Gold Medal in the Paralympics.
The Italians, whose country is becoming more and more dominated by Muslim immigrants, never thought an Israeli could win, so they deliberately didn’t have the Israeli national anthem ready and played some BS song instead. She was having none of that and sang her own rendition of the Israeli national anthem, “Hatikvah” (“The Hope”). Ms. Samuel will represent Israel in the 2012 Paralympic Games in London, which happens around the same time as the Olympic Games. Will they do this to Israel again? We’ll see.
But, for now, watch this inspiring video, below. As my friend, “Mehitabel,” rightly says, “Israelis know how to make it right!” Yes, they do (most of the time). Check this out . . .

Good for Moran Samuel for standing up for what’s right! Every country’s national anthem is available online – what excuse does any organization have for not having it handy?
Listing Israel within Europe is one of the geographically incorrect things that I find annoying. Others are listing Muslim countries that fall within Asia as part of Europe just b’cos they were under the Soviets. Seriously – how are countries like Uzbekistan or Tajikistan ‘European’ countries while Iran and Afghanistan – right next to them – are Asian? Truth is that these Muslims, who think of themselves as whites and behave in a way that one can’t even parody of Europeans or Americans – like to believe that they are a part of the West, even though they have little in common. Hence you have Turkey’s attempt to enter the EU (despite only a fraction of the country falling within the European continent) and countries like Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, et al trying to define themselves as being a part of Europe.
Israel – whether Muslims like it or not – is geographically a part of Asia. Either the Olympics should force every country in Asia that has to compete w/ Israel in international sports – to play w/ them, or be banned totally (like used to be the case w/ South Africa for its apartheid policies, which were far more benign than any policies the Muslims have). The other solution the Olympics can do – not divide the world according to continent, but just group groups of countries together – say Israel w/ East Asian countries like Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Philippines, Vietnam, et al, the US w/ Australia, South Africa, Brazil, Liberia and so on, and similar configurations of certain countries randomly picked. And that way sidestep such controversies.
