3. I think this year's Olympics are fantastic.

The world is certainly enjoying them and the athletes seem to be thrilled to be there.

The Olympics should have zero to do with politics, and countries that try to inject politics into them only make themselves look like they don't understand what they are about. Naturally war mongering nations never like anything that promotes the PEOPLE of the world getting along with each other and respecting each other. That is definitely a threat to countries whose policies involve creating an atmosphere of hatred around the world.

It is also sad that this country is now viewed as a war mongering, dangerous nation in most parts of the world.
