The swiss broadcaster pulled the clip: https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/feb/17/swiss-broadcaster-pulls-olympic-commentary-questioning-presence-of-israeli-bobsledder
That was hilarious. Explaining what a piece of shit the guy is for the entirety of their run while remaining calm and professional…the announcer deserves a medal
The only thing that would have been better is if the broadcast cut away to show footage of Gaza for most of the run, while occasionally showing the sport for contrast.
This happened on the Swiss state-run news service. Which has been biased pro-Israel.
So there was no chance of that happening.
I’m pleasantly surprised the commentator hasn’t been fired (yet)! It was also really amazing how they managed to stay calm and composed and just recite facts lol.
Also the swiss right wing media has gone on a frenzy calling it anti-semetic.
Ah right, so this was one employee who went rogue, and not an approved part of the planned broadcast? Very brave man!
Yeah exactly. They probably assumed barely anyone was watching anyways and then it blew up 😂

“Sooo, this guy is a piece of shit, and here’s why…”
Completely and professionally dismantles the fucker, and then ends it by basically saying, “so anyways, he placed 26th.” That whole statement was just dripping with utter disdain. Just amazing. Meanwhile, the US is literally being run by fucking Mossad at this point. I hate it here.
Not just 26th, but the 26th and final spot. Calling him last place lol

Well, russians are also in the same bucket. Still can compete, still can demonstrate their fascist symbols
Show me Russia in the 2026 Winter Olympics rn
There’s 13 athletes from Russia.
They may not get a flag, but they still are competing and very much Russian.
unlike here, where they are running using Israeli flags,
Nevermind the downvotes. Reading comprehension is a skill in steep decline.
Russia has 13 athletes in the 2026 winter olympics.

Yep. Letting the Russians and Israelis to compete is legitimising what their countries are doing.
If a country is in a war/genocide etc, like Russia and Israel, then their athletes shouldn’t be able to compete.However, if the athletes change nationalities then they should be able to compete for the new country. But the athletes will lose any medals or Olympic records if they change back to their original nationality.
