“Moderate” Malaysia denies entry to Israeli swimmers for world championship

23

These are the “moderates.” Morocco, like Malaysia and Indonesia, is widely touted as a “moderate” Muslim country, where none of the “extremism” that reigns elsewhere can be found. And yet they will not allow Israel’s Paralympics swimming team enter the country. When have we ever seen a Muslim country act in a normal way toward Israel? Ever? Muslims, “extremist” or “moderate,” march in lockstep on that issue (and so many others). Why? Malaysia is half a world away from Israel. The idea that it has some grievance against it is absurd, except for one thing: Islam. Islamic Jew-hatred: it’s in the Qur’an.

“Malaysia denies entry to Israeli swimmers for world championship,” by Oren Aharoni, Arutz Sheva, January 6, 2019 (thanks to Mark):

Malaysia will not allow Israel’s Paralympics swimming team enter the country to participate in the World Para Swimming Championships in July, despite two months of efforts by the Israel Paralympics Committee.

The event, set to be held in the Malaysian city of Kuching, is a critical one since the results will affect the formulation of 2020 Paralympics in Tokyo. The city will play host to more than 600 swimmers from 70 countries. The fact that there are no diplomatic relations between the Jewish state and Muslim nation is making it hard for the Israeli team to obtain visas.

The directors of the Israel Paralympics Committee have tried to involve the Sports and Culture Ministry as well as Alex Gilady, an Israeli member of the International Olympic Committee, in an effort to obtain visas, but have yet to receive a response.

Only recently, Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Bin Mohammad criticized the Australian government’s decision to recognize west Jerusalem as the capital of Israel: “Jerusalem has always been Palestinian territory and it must remain in its current status,” he said.

The chairman of the Israeli Olympic Committee, Nisim Sasportas, told Ynet: “For some time now we have been trying to guarantee our participation in the world championships. In principle, everyone says that it will work out, but we have still not received an invitation or visas. We are continuing to apply pressure. We have letters of support from the International Paralympics Committee, the European Paralympics Committee and the Olympic Athletes Committee, and hope that they allow the athletes and their security entourage to participate.”…

They’re invited to name it? Don’t they understand the reality? What is in store
when the numbers grow? With ongoing infiltration?
What’s really planned, what shall really happen? I am amazed.

Moderation is NOT applicable to islam or any country that has it as its ideological doctrine. Wake Up!1 In Malatsia and the now Indonesia the muslims cooperated with the Japanese WRT allied troops and escaped POWs. only the Chinese helped the allies.

I think most of the Muslim world was fairly pro-Axis during the war.

Why would any moslem be allowed to compete in a human being sport’s event, much less a moslem “country” be allowed to host one?

No formal diplomatic relations – no entry. This is why El Al doesn’t fly to Singapore—no overflight over Malaysia. (Singapore was formerly part of Malaysia.) The Paralympics should have considered this before selecting Kuching, Malaysia as a host city, and because this affects the 2020 Olympics, Israel should lodge a formal protest. This will also become an issue at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Qatar.

Officials from Iran and North Korea are allowed into the United States though.

Only for UN meetings and only because the POTUS is bound by ratified treaty.

Unjust Muhammad incited to kill atheists & Jews & told his Messiah would come when stones & trees would lure Muhammadists to kill Jews.
Muhammadists try to spin their mythological, ideological hatred against Jews & Israel as reasonable & rational consequence of common sense.
The information-sources like education-institutions, Wikipedia, media, social media censor & deceive in service & worship for the unjust Muhammadism.
Trump patronizes this censorship.
He said Pamela Geller would “insult everybody” & sells weapons to Saudi Arabia.
Hitler* also was a Muhammadist which is censored just like everything else** that could put the unjust Muhammadism in a vulnerable position.
We must educate the people & create a government that protects the ethical values of truth, justice, love, American English, friendliness, ecology, human rights, global imperialism, freedom from religion & to atheism, healthy food (see DrAxe.com), cultivation of ecological best quality basics, support for self-realisation & the abolition of the unjust Muhammad-law worldwide.
* Hitler viewed the unjust Muhammadism as ultimate Nazi religion that as he told his architect & minister of war Albert Speer matches the German temperament better & many Nazi criminals openly converted to the unjust Muhammadism after the war & worked for the Egyptian Muhammadist tyranny under Nasser or in Syria.
** Unjust Muhammad burned people for not praying, crucified critics, commanded the lifelong torture of clitodirectomy, forced theism on anyone, raped, tortured, declared war on atheists, Jews & all other Non-muhammadists & ‘kissed’ penises of boys & sucked boys’ tongues & lips.
Africans are enslaved in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, Yemen, Kuwait, Lebanon, Bahrain, North-Sudan, Libya, Algeria, Mauritania, Niger, Mali, Somalia, Nigeria in emulation of unjust Muhammad who started the global African slave-trade by saying his unproven deity had turned Africans black so Africans’ descendants would be slaves to Arabs & Turks.

The US should boycott these games if Israel is excluded.

Why should the USA get involved in sports? What about the athletes who worked hard to train for the 2020 Games? Most will only get one shot.

No. Boycotting the games hurts the athletes. The better approach is to withhold foreign aid.

This is not the fault of the athletes and their chairman from israel, this is the fault of malaysian authorities. Sue them for impeding athletes to make entries in participating the event. They should have any rights in participating the event without being mixed in any political matters. But malaysian authorities bring the things up into political matters. And keep the eyes on malaysian PM mahathir bin mohammad. This racist c*nt should be given the chance to taste the humiliation over his racism.

The issue should be with the Paralympics, which should have considered this matter.

You should understand that they won’t take the blame no matter what, since it’s from malaysian authorities that denied the entries of the athletes. Unless they’re proved to make malaysia holding the event to deliberately raise political issue which it is the absurd thing that I’ve ever heard. But until then, safe to speak, the paralympics only did what they can to choose the place to hold the event with their own selection method.

If the governing bodies around this particular sport were to come down like the proverbial “ton of bricks” on Malaysia and other governing bodies were to do the same, less of this would happen before dying away. The countries of the Islamic world could then play against each other and award meaningless medals.

There seems to be a moral vacuum at most of the top levels in the west and really, those people are the architects of their own misfortune.

It isn’t about “race,” it’s about hatred of God’s chosen. Islam KNOWS God has chosen Israel and the Jewish people and they’re insanely jealous of them! Arabs and Israelis are BOTH Semites, that’s why it isn’t “racism.”

How sad, Malaysia should abandon the Arab religion constricting it for centuries and establish ties with Israel!
