Original Note:
The IOC charter states that “the Olympic Movement shall apply political neutrality,” and therefore political speech in favor of Israel’s siege in Gaza would be strongly against the spirit of the Olympics, yet may not break any formal rules or result in any punishment. https://stillmed.olympics.com/media/Document%20Library/OlympicOrg/General/EN-Olympic-Charter.pdf (at #5)
