With the hope of achieving the highest level of recognition, national level athletes dedicate all their time and energy in pursuit of becoming the best that they can be. They live for the rush that comes with winning a competition; it is like no other high.
So it is understandable to see Iranian athletes having been ordered by their IRR minders to not face an Israeli opponent and consequently been disqualified to break down and sob.
It has happened number of times the last one being with Taleb Nematpour, the Greco-Roman style wrestler participating in the current Moscow World Wrestling championship.
According to published reports knowing all his hopes were dashed, as soon as Mr. Nematpour found out he had to face an Israeli opponent he began to cry for a considerable length of time. A lot of hope was riding on him to grab Gold medal for Iran.
To avoid a similar faith, his compatriot, Saman Tahmasebi became a citizen of Azerbaijan and has a very good chance of winning medals for his new country.
The horrors the Islamist Rapists are inflicting on Iran and Iranians is multilayered and covers everything, every one and will do so till the day it is overthrown.
