In a move that took everyone by surprise the International
Olympic Planning Committee bypassed Tokyo, Madrid and Istanbul – the leading
contenders for the 2020 Olympics- and instead appointed Damascus to host it. The
IOC head stated “We hope this sends a
message to Assad that when you gas your own people you are going to pay a stiff
price.” Now Damascus will have to spend millions of dollars that it could
have spent on weapons to host the International games. It will have to use its
troops that could be fighting rebels to keep close watch on the thousands of athletes
including ones from Israel. It will also have to spend time and money on
building stadiums and other venues which could bankrupt the country.The IOC hopes that this will send a strong message to
Assad and other leaders not to use weapons of mass destruction on his own people, or face the
consequences.
