 Imagine trying to prepare for an Olympics while grief and chaos has gripped your country for the past nine months since Hamas terrorists breached the border with Gaza and killed approximately 1,200 Israelis while taking 250 hostages. Imagine watching so many people around the world turn against your country for responding to an existential threat with forceful military action. And then imagine preparing to go to France, a country rife with antisemitism, against the 500,000 or so Jews still remaining in the country.
