Paris Olympics: Israeli forces to lend support for secure games
FRANCE-For the Olympic and Paralympic Games this summer in the French capital, more than 15 million tourists are anticipated. It is anticipated to be the biggest athletic event of the year, but security will be a major concern in a nation that has had horrific terror attacks in the past. Conflicts are raging around the world.
Why was Israel chosen to support Paris Olympics security?
Over the course of the more than nine months of fighting on the Gaza Strip, Israel which would be in charge of overseeing security for the games has slaughtered around 39,000 people, half of whom were women and children. The startling part is that Olympic security is being provided by Israeli security forces implicated in this massacre. Their attendance in the Olympics is a clear contradiction given that the main objectives of the event are to protect human rights, advance world solidarity, and provide equal opportunity for all. Since the Olympics’ founding in 776 BC, the games have aimed to promote a positive, non-violent way of living via constructive competition. The ancient Greek kings were the ones who brought an end to hostilities at the Olympics. a custom that shows how human civilization is moving in the direction of harmony and peace. The contemporary Olympics were resurrected with the same objectives: to uphold human rights and foster international peace. The goal of the administration has always been to portray the Olympics as a representation of a kind, peaceful ideal. An issue that the global community has to address more than ever. Injustice and destructive conflicts are the current realities facing human society.
How many Israeli personnel will be deployed to Paris?
The host nation’s first priority is always ensuring the safety of the contests. Regardless of prejudice, building a large coalition is essential to ensuring the security of players and fans who take pleasure in sharing seats and watching thrilling sports. France has begun to form a coalition with 46 other nations to ensure the safety of the celebrations. a coalition that may be seen as a representation of humankind’s attempts to create an equitable, amicable, and peaceful society. When International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach stated on Wednesday that Israel’s Olympic status is unaffected by the situation in Gaza, ahead of the Paris Games, political intentions came under scrutiny. Since October, Russia, which is isolated in international sports due to its invasion of Ukraine, has made sporadic calls for athletic sanctions on Israel. There is little doubt that the 10,500 athletes competing will need to set aside international differences and live together in the Olympic Village. However, Guégan remarked, it might not be so easy. “A geopolitical reality that transcends athletes will hold them captive. Positions may be taken as soon as we put players face to face, as we just saw in Turkey, the Israeli soccer player Sagiv Jehezkel remarked, alluding to his imprisonment there for commemorating one hundred days after Hamas kidnapped the hostages.
Will Israeli forces be armed during the Paris Olympics?
According to tehrantimes, It is a horrible human predicament that Israel, one of the primary human rights offenders, is providing security for the Olympics. There are rumors that the French government is thinking of handing over security for the Olympic Games in Paris to the security company ISDS. Leo Glaser, the founder and president of ISDS, a private security firm based in Israel, was previously an Israeli army officer. With an emphasis on cyber security, human force training, and international sports competition security, ISDS Security Company offers complete, integrated, and multidimensional security plans for governments and non-governmental organizations at national and international events. Having been chosen for both the Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020 Olympics, this business is among the most well-known security contractors for the 2024 Games. As per parstoday, For the nation hosting the Olympics, ensuring the events’ security has always been of utmost importance. It is crucial to make an attempt to form a sizable alliance in order to guarantee the safety of competitors and fans who wish to watch them without facing prejudice. To guarantee the security of the games, France has also organized a coalition with 46 other members. This alliance may be interpreted as a representation of humankind’s endeavor to bring about equality, friendship, and peace throughout the globe. Surprisingly, though, the Israeli government is also directly through its participation in the French-led coalition and indirectly through a global security consultancy firm involved in the security of the Paris Olympics.
