This has happened, but in this case, Sasson is on record hating Israel and Jews.

Nah, this guy personally has always held super anti Israel views. 3 might be right for other athletes but not this guy.
Lol that would mean the IOC would actually do something about this which has happened forever. I mean FFS FIFA enables this shit by making/letting Israel compete in UEFA.
Are you joking? There’s a wikipedia list of Arab athletes refusing to participate against Israelis. This shit has been happening forever, and it’s pure antisemitism.

They also requested this song to be played in the event they won a medal:
Greatest athlete of all time.
Alternatively, she just pulled into Nazareth.
Golden slumbers filled her eyes.
Actually interestingly enough, I’m reading the Hebrew now, and the word they use is וְנַעֲרוֹ which better translates to “his youth.” So servant is a bad translation, the more approximate word would be “apprentice” or “squire” or “manservant.” That clears up even more. Concubine is concubine (feminine).
Fucking christ explaining the history behind it doesn’t mean its ok! I suppose Eli Weisel and MLK were defending the holocaust and slavery too, right?!
A male servant a) isn’t a slave and b) male slaves and female slaves anyway have different rules about them because of you guessed it, gender roles. A concubines “job” is to have sex with her master and who he says to. A male slave under biblical law has more rights (ie he gets freed after 7 years). Female slaves also…
If you can’t tell the difference between “defending something” and “explaining it in terms of its historical context” please never go into any type of scholarship ever.
They have no desire to do an actual scociocultural interpretation of the bible; they just want to think BIBLE=BAD and leave it at that. Don’t even try.
Damn jews amirite.
I’ve never seen a more perfect use for this image
I’m a Yankee fan and I hated him with a passion for saying that.
I’m a Yankee fan and I hate you right now...

Let’s not forget that Canada’s PM took a beating in the first round then proceeded to KO a stronger guy with more boxing experience in charity match...
