In news that appears to have been entirely ignored by corporate British media, Israel’s four-man bobsled team has been disqualified from the Winter Olympics – for lying.
The four men were lying near the bottom of the rankings after their first two runs and wanted to bring in the team’s substitute, Druze Ward Fawarseh. But the rules only allow for an alternate to step in if one of the starting team is injured or sick. So the Israelis claimed that Uri Zisman was sick – but got found out and disqualified.
Who called it first?
While UK mainstream media have ignored it completely, their Israeli counterparts are trying to portray it as Israeli fair play. Supposedly, team bosses heard about the cheating and withdrew their own team. But an official disqualification can only be imposed by official Olympic judges.
If this pattern has a familiar feel, that’s because it is familiar. All too familiar. Israel slaughtered hundreds of its own people on 7 October 2023 under the so-called ‘Hannibal directive‘. To (unsuccessfully) cover its tracks, the occupation regime and its mouthpieces made up atrocity propaganda about rapes, and about beheaded or cooked babies.
Deja vu
None of it – literally not a word of it – was true. There were no beheaded babies. None were put in ovens. There were no rapes. But that, the UK and other western media were all too happy to amplify.
They still do, even though the claims have been completely debunked. Even Israeli government and military figures have admitted the Israeli military killed most Israelis who died that day. Now wonder they are ignoring this latest admission of lying.

That correlation between cheating and Oct 7 has to be the most tenuous bridge I’ve ever seen lmao
The Canadian curling team double touched their rock, harkening back to the abuse First Nations children suffered from the Catholic Priests running the Residential Schools.
Same energy lmao
Sure, you know, if that Canadians were actively wiping first nations people as of yesterday.
