During the ancient Olympics, athletes from all over the world came to Olympia in Greece to compete. I'm not sure if it was 16 days like it is now but that's irrelevant to the point I'm making here. During the time span of the Olympics, there was an international agreement that war was to be put on hold. Rather than fighting to the death, you compete in various games and then when the games are over, you can go back to warring.
It is in this spirit that I'm against Russia being banned from competing in the Olympics. The athletes didn't have anything to do with invading Ukraine. Aside from that, we pretend that we're so progressed from the savagery of yesteryear but despite the savagery and barbarity that was the world 3,000 years ago, they were able to be peaceful for two weeks and clearly we cannot because we ban countries because we don't approve of their war.
I guess the title of my first book was right; we really haven't progressed in 5,000 years.
