Title: Paris Olympics
Post by philperth2010 on May 1st, 2024 at 5:07pm
For so many swimmers to test positive from one country in one particular sport stinks of systematic doping by the Chinese....It is not suprising the world swimming bodies are not happy....The inquiry will be a cover up!!!


Quote:
WADA to launch independent review into Chinese swimmers’ doping case
Anti-doping body responds to criticism, says its integrity and reputation are under attack over handling of the case.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has asked an independent prosecutor to review its handling of a case where 23 Chinese swimmers tested positive for a prescription heart drug.

The organisation will also send a “compliance audit team” to China to “assess the current state of the country’s anti-doping program” run by anti-doping body CHINADA.

I think it just a matter of time really. It's just not the Chinese. Even Americans (Lance Armstrong) do it and other countries. Eventually, it will get to the point that 'everyone' will do it - just like how the 'amateur only' Olympics caved into Professional Sports exploiting it.
It's all about 'Money' and Performance Enhancing (like Performance Enhancing Military Technologies) will make a lot of Sports people and those associated like 'Sponsors' - a lot of money. The pressure to 'win' over just being fit, will over-ride all else.

Excitement Builds For First Olympic Games Held In Muslim Country



PARIS — With the world's top athletes gathering in Paris in the coming weeks, excitement among media and spectators alike continued to build around the globe for the first Olympic Games to be held in a Muslim country.

While the city of Paris had previously hosted the Olympic Games in 1900 and 1924, this year's Games of the XXXIII Olympiad will mark the historic first time that the storied athletic contests took place in an Islamic nation.

"We couldn't be more excited and also terrified," said International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach. "This is a tremendous milestone for the Olympic Games, and we are honored to have them taking place in a Muslim country for the very first time. The beautiful architecture, the vibrant culture, the constant threat of violent knife attacks and mass murder… it all makes for a wonderful experience here."

The best athletes in the summer events from nations around the world also expressed eagerness to participate in the historic occasion. "It really is special," said Swedish female pole vaulter Hjördis Hjertsson. "I've been here in Paris for three days so far and I haven't been assaulted. Hopefully, I can survive until I can compete in my event. Fingers crossed!"

With just over two weeks until the opening ceremonies, authorities reported only eight mass stabbings, 30 assaults on Jews and Christians, and 264 sexual assaults in the last month leading up to the games.

At publishing time, the IOC was preparing to officially inform the athletes that all females would be required to compete in burqas.

3+ Muslim attacks, including by pro Hamarse Gaza bozos
2+ lefty anarchist attacks
3+ Green, no oil brainless attacks
3+ lefty union strikes


0 National Front - Marine Le Pen. Never have been any.  But they call her 'far/ultra' right.

Sodom And Gomorrah Set To Host 2028 Olympics



WORLD — In keeping with the Olympics' commitment to sexual violence and Satan worship, the International Olympic Committee announced today that the 2028 games would be held in the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah.

"They're a natural fit for us," explained Olympic Committee director Max Durgen. "Violent sexual debauchery forced upon unsuspecting visitors? Check. Openly mocking the Lord God? Check. They'll be hard pressed to top Paris, but I think they're up to the task."

According to sources, the Olympic Committee has sought to ensure that fun games between nations meant to promote peace and friendship also destroy the innocence of any children who might be watching. "If you're not sexualizing a little kid who's just trying to watch his country's swim team, what are you even doing?" asked marketing chair Steph Reginald. "Everyone needs to see Jesus mocked when they're wanting to watch gymnastics, and that mockery must include visible testicles. It's what the Olympics are all about, and that's why Sodom and Gomorrah will be the perfect host cities."

After years of being a pariah over their history of sexual violence, Sodom and Gomorrah have seen a dramatic change in fortune over the past decade. "People have really come around," said Sodom mayor Bangs Magill. "We're really excited to welcome so many visitors, and show them that famous Sodom hospitality we're known for."

At publishing time, France had decided to give Sodom a run for its money by doing a closing ceremony featuring a live virgin sacrifice to Beelzebub.
...


Here is the complete list of new events for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games:

Synchronized Surrendering: A beautiful French tradition going back millennia.

Women's armpit hair growing: Gross.

Shotput the homo off the roof: France's new migrant population has them in real position to challenge Iran.

Freestyle losing to Hitler and waiting for America to save us: France once again the heavy favorite.

100-meter Jew chasing: A lot like the 100m dash, but with the added element of chasing down Jews.

Downhill luge away from the suicide bomber: Motivating.

Team not showering: Why, France?

Cross country being obnoxious and pretending like you don't understand English: Might as well give France the gold right now.

In the Tokyo Olympics USA had 39 gold out of 113 medals which is a success rate of ~34%.

Currently in 2024 Olympics USA has 3 gold out of 20 medals which is a 15% success rate. If the USA continues at this rate it will likely get only 17 gold compared to 39 in Tokyo 2021.

This could be the first year China outscores the USA in Olympic gold medals.

Silver and bronze are losers.


Not the way that Bronze was hard fought for… it was like gold to them rugby gals …. One team have medals to show for it another team none.

I thought it was very moving to see an Irish swimmer Daniel Wiffen win gold in swimming…

How many gold medals has Ireland won in swimming?
three swimming gold medals
Ireland is reveling in its Paris aquatic moment. Going into the men's 800 free, the country has just three swimming gold medals in its history; they were all won by Michelle Smith at the 1996 Games.

News clips from US MSM gloriously praise US as the leading performer at the Olympics which is the opposite of the truth.

In fact the USA is the leading loser at 7th rank in Gold medals.

Because they have the most medals it is not a sign of being a winner, it is just a sign of the fact they have more Olympic competitors than any other country and therefore enter more events and enter multiple competitors in events.

China is the best performer according to gold medals relative to team size.

At the current 16.7% rate of gold to total medals the USA might not win more than 20 gold medals.

Tyson Offers To Fight Olympics Trans Boxing Winner &
Give Proceeds To Battered Women’s Charity


Fact checked by The People's Voice Community

August 2, 2024









The women’s boxing match at the Paris Olympics has triggered international outrage and raised more questions about the fairness of letting “biological males” compete against females.

Italy’s Angela Carini faced off against Algeria’s Imani Khelif on Thursday, in the welterweight (66kg) category, but lasted only 46 seconds. Khelif was disqualified from last year’s World Championships after being deemed biologically male.

After taking two hefty punches to the face, Carini was forced to withdraw from the contest. She threw down her helmet crying “this is unjust!”

She has since received an outpouring of solidarity from critics of transgenderism around the world, who denounced Khelif as a biological man and protested the bout as unfair.

Among those who slammed the situation were a UN women’s welfare official and Italy’s Prime Minister.

Author J.K. Rowling told the International Olympic Committee (IOC): “A young female boxer has just had everything she’s worked and trained for snatched away because you allowed a male to get in the ring with her” She adding that the 2024 Olympics “will be forever tarnished by the brutal injustice done to Carini.”

Not true. Remember Eddie the Eagle. Last in every event he entered.

Eric Moussambani, Eric the eel.

1. He learned how to swim 8 months prior to the Olympics
2. He had only ever practiced in a 12m pool at a hotel he was allowed to use between 5am and 6am (1hr) on weekdays.
3. He practiced swimming in a lake.


Scores of competitors have competed without having the qualifications.

Quote:
Moussambani, who hailed from Equatorial Guinea in Central Africa, was at the Games as an International Olympic Committee (IOC) wildcard entrant. He hadn't qualified by the high-performance standards, but the inclusion of people like him was, and still is, important for the diversity of the Olympics.


Moussambani was never a chance to qualify....Despite the fact none of the Athletes in the USA or China teams entered under this exception....China just did not have enough athletes that were good enough to qualify!!!

That reminds me:-

... bloke is born with only a head and a torso... his parents always tell him he can be anything when he grows up, and he is determined to be an Olympic swimmer.... they say it won't work without arms and legs but he persists and finally they work out a way - so they strap him to the chest of a champion swimmer and on the Big Day, splash - into the water and straight ahead down the pool at a huge rate of knots... unfortunately the poor buggar, being strapped to the chest underneath the champion, drowns before the race finishes..... which only goes to show - sometimes it's better to quit when you're a head.

Bloke is an Olympic Rugby player, and also has a brother, IQ 37, who's only good as a boxer, so he's on the Olympic boxing team.

First game the Rugby bloke goes to tackle a South American giant and gets so hammered he can only do ice baths and lie back in an armchair for the duration of the Olympics.  During all this time he watches his moron brother on television win bout after bout and finally take the Gold medal.............. all of which shows that sometimes you just have to get into some cold ones and lie back and watch the idiot box instead of trying to tackle the big ones.........

Yeah - I feel real sorry for that boxer bloke born without a prick and thus wrongly assigned  female gender at birth and then raised in an attempt to make him a girl.... a clear case of gender assignment at birth going astray ...

Seen the locker room videos?  Sits like a bloke with legs apart to cool the balls, walks like a bloke, no female accoutrements on chest or crotch, no inner female parts .... poor buggar - born with no prick - a Dickless Tracy.... and then forced to believe and act like he's a girl.... no wonder he wants to pound the poo out of real girls.......

But by that standard, anyone who can present without a prick magically becomes a girl and can compete against girls..... as long as the IOC sights their passport ... of course, the Queensland passport might be a bit tricky if real tests are ever applied...........

Still - I pity the poor buggar.... wonder where he'll end up??
