Either they should ban israel and america from olympics and fifa or they should apologize to russian atheletes. Absolutely shameful double standards

    Russia at least was originally banned not for political reasons, but because of systemic cheating among their athletes. I saw someone say that that's changed and the reason the ban continues is politics. I'm not sure. But if it was entirely about the doping, I would think that the IOC has a reasonable stance.

    But broadcasters can and absolutely should do more things like this video. Use the Olympics as an opportunity to humiliate countries and athletes like Israel and their bobsledder for their involvement in war crimes including genocide.
