Absolutely! I have read these comments and am totally incredulous with the antisemitism that is spewing from the mouths of liberals. (And I've read some pretty disgusting anti-Jewish posts on other threads, too.) And for all you antisemities who have posted above, there is essentially no difference between being anti-Israel and antisemitic.)

There is a direct correlation between anti-Israel sentiment and the rise of antisemitism both in Europe and the U.S. Look at the BDS movement - which calls for the boycott of Israeli products - spreading like wildfire through college campuses and the rise in antisemitism there, and how it is most horrible at the most liberal schools. (I'm looking st you, UC/Davis.) Yet, these same liberals, while spewing hatred of Jews, come up with ridiculous notions such as "Muslim Appreciation Day" (again, California).

And the irony of all this is that these liberal antisemities accuse conservatives of racism.

That's when he took action and closed the door on the already loaded bus.

This is from l'Orient Le Jour" newspaper.

Well, THAT makes it official then. I hear the Hitler confirmed that the Jews were stealing all the German's money, so that's why he killed 6 million of them

Ugh. Just stop. This is a blip, not something worthy of banning.

Middle school kids whose country has been bombed by Israel several times.

I doubt any of the Olympians on the bus bombed anything. So it is OK to hate Israeli's but not Muslims? They bomb shit all over the world with great frequency. There is NO excuse for their idiotic and offensive behavior!

The Lebanese didn't show much Olympic spirit there, but there's only so many times you can turn the other cheek. No one can deny Israel expansionist policy hasn't been asking for it, over the years.

Israel invaded Lebanon in 1982 and occupied southern Lebanon up until 2000, during which time they slaughtered thousands of Lebanese civilians, including women and children.

Accusing Lebanese athletes of having poor Olympic spirit is absurd. Lebanese athletes have every right to refuse riding a bus with Israelis.

Re-read my post. The Israelis reap what they sow.

Can we ban you from posting until you learn to spellcheck? You're writing like a middle school kid in this incident, and you look pretty bad ( ). Thankfully, more intelligent people than yourself are in charge of making these sorts of decisions. Banning a country from participating because of a misunderstanding that hurt absolutely nobody? What a joke OP.

On the scale of middle horrors this rates a 0.0. It the Olympics.

There will always be troubles where the Muslims go...sad but true.

Lebanon is 54% Muslim and 41% Christian

Thank you! The PP is such a twit.
