nadine acoury ,   London UK   (08.17.08)
still Arab countries, of which one gold to Tuisia, silver and bronze to Algeria and one bronze to Egypt (so far) are succeeding much better than Israel which does not appear on the list of medals
33. # 32 Israel is just one country
Bill ,   US   (08.17.08)
Jews have won 3 Gold, 4 Silver and 1 Bronze. All American Jewish Olympians won a medal except for the one from Israel.

If some one needs a crash-course in reading comprehension, it must be YOU Tahl. My comment is not addressed to the writer of this article, it is addressed to the stupid comments being posted by yourself and your compatriots.

He Dufus, my comment is not intended to the writer of the article but to the stupid comments posted by arrogant Israelis.
36. To Tahl #21. A Herculean Task.

You say :"How many medals does the entire Arab world need to stay at the same ratio of medals-to-population ?" You are giving the Arab world a huge task, a Herculean task. Let's see whether they will rise to the challenge -- to the Olympic challenge.

Wow, it amazes me how corrupt the thinking and mindset of Arab Muslim are in this world. Do you folks ever really think before speaking? Can you formulate sentences on your own without hiding behind excuses for your own frail beliefs and inabilities to succeed? Every time a Arab Muslim speaks, it about anger, killing, women, minors, feeling self-defeating, hate, the list goes on and on. And this is a religion of love? This religion is based upon control and using women and children as objects. Such as sad state of mind to be brought up in. I feel sorry for all of you.
