Palestinians: It's Racist to Have a Moment of Silence to Commemorate Murdered Israeli Athletes But Its Not Racist to Murder Them

Jibril Rajoub, President of the Palestinian Olympic Committee, sent a letter to the President of the International Olympic Committee, Jacques Rogge thanking him for blocking any moment of silence to commemorate the murdered Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics (murdered by Palestinians of course).  Here is the passage reporting on the letter from the official Palestinian Authority Daily:

"'Sports are a bridge to love, interconnection, and spreading peace among nations; it must not be a cause of division and spreading of racism between them.' With these words the President of the Palestinian Olympic Committee, Jibril Rajoub, began a special letter which he sent to president of the International Olympic Committee, Jacques Rogge. He expressed appreciation for [Rogge's] position, who opposed the Israeli position, which demanded a moment's silence at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in London. He said that his position not to politicize sports, and his determination to implement the International Olympic Charter represents a victory for freedom in sports. It should be noted that Rogge once again expressed the position of the executive office of the International Olympic Committee, which opposes the idea of holding a moment's silence during the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics, to mark the anniversary of the Munich operation, which took place during the Munich Olympics in 1972."

You just can't make this crap up.   I also love how they refer to it as the "Munich Operation".  See it's okay, it was just an operation!  Not the murder of innocent athletes who only wanted to life weights, wrestle and fence at the Games.   Anyway, just another thing to put in the "Palestinians shouldn't have a state" bin.
