(Boston Globe) Jeff Jacoby - PLO chieftain Jibril Rajoub is chairman of the Palestine Olympic Committee. He declares, "Any activity of normalization in sports with the Zionist enemy is a crime against humanity." When the Peres Center for Peace hosted a soccer match between Palestinian and Israeli kids in 2014, Rajoub was furious. It was "a disgrace to use sports for this purpose," he thundered, and issued a "demand that all individuals and institutions distance themselves from such activities." Such behavior isn't only hateful and immoral. It's also an egregious violation of International Olympic Committee rules. The IOC's detailed Code of Ethics requires Olympic personnel to respect at all times the movement's principle of "universality and political neutrality" and to affirm "the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity, and fair play." Palestinian athletes deserve a better leader than Rajoub, a man so toxic with hatred that he applauds terror attacks and denounces games that bring Arab and Jewish kids together.2016-08-05 00:00:00Full Article
