Iranian Olympic Swimmers Flee from Jews

jihad.gif


As I said, I could care less about the Olympics, but hey, there is some entertainment value in witnessing the Jew-hating Islamic Republic of Iran flee like cowards from the Jewish athletes in Beijing.

Let's explore why the Persians would act in such a dumb and insulting manner:

1. The Persians view all competition with non Muslims as a religious test: Islam over non-Islam. To lose to a Jew would be theologically indefensible. It's like admitting that our G-d is stronger than their G-d. Real sophisticated theologians in the Islamic Republic of Iran.

2. They're just a bunch of racist, Jew-hating Islamo Nazis.

3. All of the above.

Hey, I have an idea, let's get Barack Obama to fly on over to Beijing and engage the Iranians in, what does he call it? Oh yeah, “tough diplomacy.” I'm sure BO, with all his ivy league charm can, you know, get the genocidal-yearning Iranians to sing kumbaya and embrace the Israeli delegation.

I mean, two years in the trenches as a community organizer, AKA Socialist agitator, has definitely prepared BO for dealing with The Islamic Republic of Iran.

As for us, here at Seraphic Secret we just can't wait for Israel to bomb the crap out of those savages.

Politics reared its ugly head at the Olympic Games once more on Saturday after an Iranian swimmer refused to compete alongside Israeli Tom Be'eri.
Mohammad Alirezaei was due to race against Be'eri in the fourth heat of the 100 meter breaststroke, but pulled out, apparently under the orders of the chiefs of the Iranian delegation.

Seraphic Secret is private property, that's right, it's an extension of our home, and as such, Karen and I have instituted two Seraphic Rules and we ask commentors to act respectfully.

1. No profanity.

2. No Israel bashing. We debate, we discuss, we are respectful. You know what Israel bashing is. The world is full of it. Seraphic Secret is one of the few places in the world that will not tolerate this form of anti-Semitism.

That's it. Break either of these rules and you will be banned.

How much less could you care about the Olympics? Or did you mean that you couldn't care less?

I hate the olympics and always have. But given our dubious history (Munich), I'm certainly happier that they chicken out, then the kill us.

As far as the world's opinion is concerned, they would only care if an American (or a Jew) pulled this crap against a Mooslem.

Otherwise, it's as much as a story as John Edwards was.

Although, it wouldn't surprise me if Keith Olbermann called the head of the Israeli delegation his "worst person of the day" for causing the poor Iranian stress for having to compete against a Joooo.

Well - funny guys - these religious people! One refuse to swim to another, others refuse to be buried next to another, to visit the same school or even ask others to dress or behave in certain manners on certain days. All this for a childish way of believe, for the real stupid idea of a god, that watches like george orwells big brother everything you do and punishes you for everything you do wrong. We would not have to care about these people, because we could say to ourselves - its their problem, their behavioural idiotism - unless - they force the rest of the world to respect them for that.
This is when the "phobia" word comes into play, or the "anti" word. And it is always done in the same way.... Call yourself a minority, dress yourself like an idiot or force your wife to do so, that everyone can see that you are "different" "enlighted" "something better". Build closed communities that enforce narrowmindedness and keep alianation alive, ignore laws of the state or do everything not to live after them - and if criticism on your behaviour, appearance or simply your rules comes up - call the other ANTI. or PHOBIC.
This is the strategy of all religious extremists - to "bomb the crap out of" the others... Sure precisely what a deity want mankind to do!

I have always enjoyed the Olympics. There is something quite compelling about them.

As far as the Iranians go, well screw them. Let them continue to act like boors on the world stage, it makes no difference.

jpost just reported that the olympics committee is not sanctioning iran because they accept the swimmer's excuse that he withdrew due to illness.

regarding the frum taekwondo girl from israel at the olympics, i posted videos here:

Uncle Kenny:

I mean: I don't care!

Thanks for the correction.

Shayne:

I'm sure the, ahem, world community will blame the evil Jooz for denying the Iranian swimmer the chance to compete.

Moral relativism has made this moral inversion not only possible, but inevitable.

Phuter:

Thanks so much for your comment: a perfect example of moral relativism at its zenith.

Jack:

The media has barely reported on the Iranian incident so haw can they be viewed as boors. The dinosaur media are committed to a touchy, feel-good narrative. Especially when it comes to Islamo Nazis.

The Olympic committee is about as effective as the U.N. Both lack a moral compass.

Great videos of Tae Kwan Do frum girl.

"The Olympic committee is about as effective as the U.N. Both lack a moral compass."

when i think about athletes and moral compass, i think first of reggie jackson's decision to wear a black armband after the 1972 munich massacre (although one of his teammates attributed non-altruistic motives to jackson):

To the editors:

It's understandable to have such rules in place, but then you go and post things(about Iran) such as:

"As for us, here at Seraphic Secret we just can't wait for Israel to bomb the crap out of those savages."


Seems to be that there is no difference in the nonsense that you are spouting to that of what the anti-Semetics do.

One would have hoped that being people of intelligence, you could rise above this.


Well done.

No profanity :

Break either of these rules and you will be banned:

Michael, American:

Iran has threatened to wipe Israel off the face of the earth numerous times. Iran officially denies the Holocaust. Iran declared war on America and the West over 25 hears ago and ever since has been murdering Americans and Jews all over the world.

The Iranian nuclear program is an existential threat to Israel and a regional threat to the Sunni states, who, privately, are most anxious that Israel put an end to the Iranian nuclear ambitions.

Hence my call for bombing the crap out of Iran. I should have said: Bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities out of existence.

Which, by the way, is going to happen. Quite soon.
