The presence of Israeli security forces contradicts the Spirit of the Olympics

There is just a month until the beginning of the 2024 Paris Olympics and athletes are getting their last allocation for the Olympics. The French security services have formed partnerships with 46 countries trying to secure the safety of the matches. In addition to the French security protocols Israel[1] and the United States will send their own security forces to France in order to protect their athletes during the Games[2]. Israel which would be in charge of security for the games massacred almost 35000 people during the eight-month-long Gaza conflict half of whom were women and children[3]. The shocking aspect is the fact that Israeli security personnel who are involved in this genocide are providing protection for the Olympics. Considering that the Olympic Games primary goals are to safeguard human rights promote international unity and provide equal opportunities for all their presence at the event is an obvious contradiction.
