Do NOT " throw " your match By all means throw your opponents but not the match. There is nothing to be afraid of ,the israeli wreatler is just a wrestler like yourself. Meeting him will be good for your career . If necessary ,tell your coaches to TAKE A HIKE ,do not let them push you around ,and good luck to you .
3. Obviously Iran didn't want their guy beaten by and Israeli

There's nothing like getting in front on a riot and calling it a parade. The Iranians KNEW it was VERY LIKELY that their guy would have been beaten on the mat for all the Muslim world to see and wanted to avoid the embarrassment, so they tried to avoid it under the weak guise of "Muslim Morality". Does Muslim morality even exist??????????????
4. Stupidity

Maybe by the same token they should advise their military not to engage with the IDF for fear of a defeat and an embarrassment to their citizens of Iran
