Heard about this today on TMZ, which is disappointing that they don't respect the purpose and protocols of the Olympic games, to salute the host nations and dignitaries. Every other country apparently does.
The games are intended to be "politics free", and aside from a few individuals making statements (as well as the agenda of the 1936 games), this is one political statement that is intentional and pre-planned.
If a country has a political issues, or agenda (or just mere arrogance), at least boycott the games, so that it doesn't spoil it for others.
