Fethi Nourine Withdraws From Olympics Rather Than Face Israeli Tohar Butbul

This should be a huge story. The anti-Semitism rearing its head at the Olympics is newsworthy.

Fethi Nourine is not behaving like an Olympian. Athletes from around the world join togther in fair and peaceful competition at the Olympics. Nourine's ugliness does not belong at the Tokyo games.

"Imagine" Olympics without anti-Semitism. It's hard to do.
