Palestine sends eight athletes to Paris Olympics in show of resistance

[NefeshBarYochai]

A small ceremony was held to send off Palestine’s official delegation
to the Paris Olympics on Sunday, as well as to recognise the many
Palestinian athletes who will not be present.

Jibril Rajoub, head of the Palestine Olympic Committee, said 400
athletes, coaches and sporting officials have been killed in Gaza
since October.

“Through this participation, we want to present the suffering of the
Palestinian people and the unprecedented killing taking place in
Gaza,” Rajoub said.

“We want this participation to be a message from the Palestinians to
the world that it is time for them to be free in their homeland,” he
added.

Eight athletes will represent Palestine this year, competing in
athletics, swimming, archery, taekwondo, judo and boxing.

The athletes will represent Palestine at a “very dark moment in our
history”, said Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister Varsen
Aghabekian Shahin in Ramallah on Sunday.

“You are not just athletes, you are also … symbols of Palestinian
resistance,” Aghabekian added.

There is no "Palestine."

There's a totally different government in Gaza than the West Bank,
and neither are independent nations. Both are welfare dependents.

What you filthy psychos refuse to accept is that the path to an
independent state is to BECOME independent and operate as an
independent state. Then it's just a matter of recognizing the
obvious.

This *Is* how it's done!

But you have the brains of a child. You think you can merely
declare independence you don't actually have to work for it,
earn it.

Will they be sharing quarters with the Wakunda and Asgardian team?
