The Sun's not yellow it's chicken

Anonymous asked:

what do you think of the Olympic committee refusing to have a moment of silence for the Munich Massacre?

Although I agree that the Olympics should not be politicized, that is exactly what they have done.

Erase all politics and what are we left with:  The 40th anniversary of the murder of some Olympic athletes.  If you ask me, that is something totally appropriate for the Olympic committee to commemorate.

We have to inject politics — the Arab/Israeli conflict — in order for anyone to invent offense.  Without injecting politics first, no sane person could ever imagine an objection:  It’s the Olympics honoring dead Olympians.

So, yes, I am disgusted by the Olympic committee and even more disgusted with those who objected to a moment of silence. They are the ones politicizing the Olympics, and they have set a precedent which will not be forgotten.
