Yea, great idea. Politicize the games.

Don't be naive. The Olympics have always been political.

Only to those that politicize them from afar. Not to those that participate in them. One day the rest of you will accept the ideal. Until then the world has no hope of peace, not if we can not have it for two weeks of the Games.

Call it an unrealistic ideal if you want but your position is to make it a fait accompli.
