Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Probably in reference to the athletes that have personally signed bombs dropped on Gaza. Although that one is a Ukrainian man competing for Israel.
Generally Israel shouldnt be allowed to compete officially the same as Russia. This is how politics works, the atrocities a state commits, should be expected to have consequences that affect their citizens. Not always fair, but thats how the world works.

Israel-Palestine is not the same situation as Russia-Ukraine.
I agree its not exactly "the same" but that doesnt matter. There are indisputable massive violations of human rights and tons of warcrimes currently being commited. Thats plenty reason to exclude a country. Along those lines the active slavery nations US and China should be stripped of their flags and colors but we all know the powers that be wont allow that.
