Does Israel compete in the Olympics?
 

Oh, and are there any native Israeli sports?

No, I don't mean like "Whack a Palestinian Girl with a Tank" sort of thing. I was thinking of something that required athletics.

Well?

I believe the answer is no.

Yes, they do.

I think any country with such a small population wouldn't do well in the Olympics...small talent pool...China has a billion+ people...bound to get some really athletic people in that pool... :2 cents:

Jamaica did quite well... I think it has to do more with national goals and also available training. The United States has a very good training system, for example... if it was all about population, China should have gotten three times as much as the United States or the United States should have gotten three times less then China.

The jews OWN the Olympics. Look at what companies are making most money from these "games". Its just one big TV media event.

LOL I couldn't wait for the Jew jokes and 'Jews own TV' references.

Now compare medical and science advancement from Israel to your country. That'll be an even better laugh. :2 cents:

israel won a metal in sailing.

Watch Munchen, this movie open lots of information for you about Israeli sports

then compare how many billions in handouts israel recieves. :winkwink: not hard to research stuff when you are getting billions in donations.

It takes more than just money.

A good example would be pretty much any oil rich arab nation. Can even a single one produce the equipment needed to extract oil? Do they or can they manufacture anything? And as far as medical and science contributions .. Well you know the story there. Nothing in that department for some, what, 1000+ years?

have you ever seen the movie munich lol

Oh snap!!

:thumbsup:thumbsup

According to Wiki, they do, their 14th time to join.

This movie pretty much explained the entire problem with the Middle East to me. No wonder they are pissed off.

We should do the same for 9/11. Any country that took part of 9/11 we should destroy. Not occupy, but destroy.

norway only won 3 gold medals... though we are only 4 mill people here!

Australia won 46 medals.

money laundering is not a recognized sport

Arabs and Jews suck at sport.

Really? What countries would those be? Irak? Iran? Lebanon? Afghanistan? Maybe Pakistan? What about Saudi Arabia? And who would be in charge of proving it? Cheney? Powell? :helpme

Isn't it kind of hard to have a lot of athletics going on when your country is the size of Rhode Island and is surrounded by 150 million muslims who want you vaporized?

When will the Olympics be held in Tel Aviv?

i'm sure 100's of billions in handouts would give me some free time to research.


maybe if they had billions of $$ in donations they wouldnt have to work and would be free to research stuff :)

why bother they can buy it, its their choice because they earned the money it wasnt a handout .


i sure hope you don't seriously believe that :)

Yeah, that's why we have so many technological advancements coming from Africa. :winkwink:

i'm thinking africa prob has a few more people than israel , but i could be totally wrong :winkwink: i also seem to remember hearing about millions of people starving to death in africa, infact i seem to remember it being more people than the entire population of israel , again i could be totally wrong though, it could have been the other way around. i remember they had a tv show about it, didn't look much like israel, infact everyone was black and almost naked. i could just be stereotyping here but they didn't look like your typical israeli jew..

Actually, nothing good has ever come from Africa. :2 cents:

Yep, you're right about all of that. It's what the people do with the money that makes the difference. Israel takes billions, builds a modern civilized, high-tech society from nothing while defending itself from several surrounding hostile countries. Africa takes billions and comes up with wars, genocides, starvation and cities filled with poverty and squalor.

At least Israel gives a good ROI, if you will, on the money. Africa is like throwing good money after bad. :2 cents:

you do realise almost a billion people live in africa right ? :1orglaugh just a tiny slight difference in population

make up your mind is it billions or is it nothing ?
oh yes countries are always invading israel :1orglaugh those meanies

did you mean israel or africa ? they both have had wars both genocides , both starvation and both poverty and squalor .. or are you saying the parts of current israel in poverty and squalor aren't actually part of israel ?


as an american i get nothing from israel and i do get something from africa, thats how investing works , you invest money you get something back :) we get cheap shit from africa because they are poor , we get nothing from israel.

Yah, everyone totally left Israel alone after the events of that movie.

you came from africa long ago :)

the amount of ignorance & hatred in this thread disgusts me

If hitting target from Merkava tanks was a sport, jews would have at least one gold medal.
I love jews. They don't give a flying fuck what everyone thinks. Russians hit Georgia and shit hits the fan. jews fucking blow up half of Lebanon and its all Kosher.

Do you really think people sell them the latest technology, these guys are using the same guns since 1976.

They used leftover weapons and ammunition.

They have no airforce technology.

These guys have cold hard cash and have no idea how to spend it because they are stuck in the stoneage.

sure it does. Like protection of a country that can veto every fucking UN resolution that says Israel on it.
But hey, we can talk all we want about genocide by russians, yougoslavians and every other nation we don't like.

Someone please remind Smokey the Cocksucker that he's probably using an Intel Pentium based computer that was developed by Jews in Israel or a Intel Centrino typo laptop that was also developed and produced in Israel by some cheap jews.

Any country can do well if money is invested in sport by the government.

For example the Netherlands have been doing pretty well for a small country last few olympics because alot of money has been spend to give talented sport people a chance to focus on sports full time without a normal job.

I use linux and eat chinese food. Should I thank jews for that as well?
