Olympic Ideals

 #JavadForoughi,  Iran's first gold at  @Tokyo2020  in men's 10m air pistol, is member of  Revolutionary Guards. He was sent to Syria along with #IRGC forces for 2 years. IRGC killing protesters and assassinating outside Iran. This is an affront to the Olympic ideals. [More]

Not according to them...
