I just read that the International Olympic Committee has banned Iraq's athletes from the Beijing Olympics because of administrative violations committed by Iraqi olympic committe members.It seems to me that the IOC is punishing the wrong people. Why punish the athletes for what the officials have done? Iraqi athletes can finally compete for the love of the sport (instead of being tortured and killed if they don't win..and if you don't believe me, just do your homework on how Iraqi athletes were treated by the Hussein regime.) This country has been through a lot and now they are being denied the honor of competing in the Olympics.What do you think about this? And is there any movement afoot to get the Iraqi athletes reinstated?
