Dudes, the Olympics Committee is such a joke.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC), has made it clear that Palestine will be represented as if it is its own country at the Olympics, they'll be in the parade, and they'll be there regardless of whether or not they qualify for the games.

"We have made the clear commitment that even if no (Palestinian) athlete would qualify on the field of play ... then the National Olympic Committee of Palestine would benefit from invitations, like other national Olympic Committees who do not have a qualified athlete," said Mr Bach.

Peace, love, and understanding, bro! Everyone gets to participate. We don't want to disqualify someone just because, you know, they aren't good enough to compete.

However, it does appear that war-torn Palestine has one athlete who has qualified in the sport of taekwondo. But he's the lone Palestinian athlete that qualified for the games. It's assumed he will compete, but we don't know.

Mr Bach dismissed suggestions that the IOC has treated Russia differently over its invasion of Ukraine than Israel and its war in Gaza.

"The situation between Israel and Palestine is completely different," Mr Bach said.

Russia was suspended from many international sports after its invasion and its athletes have been banned from competing under the national flag at Paris 2024.

The suggestion that Israel should be banned, and not Palestine, is a crazy one. Especially since Palestine may not have any athletes compete.

But that's the world of politics right now, I guess.
