  1. Usually there is a request for an Olympic truce. That being all wars and hostilities be stopped while the Olympics is going on.  To my knowledge no host country has ever been invaded or attacked during the Olympics.  




  2.   International focus and media attention: the entire world is watching!

  3. The Olympic Games was stopped during WWII, started by Hitler.

    But he started the war between games.

    Saakashvili has used his chance to renew the history of Olympic Games.
