Adam Edelman, his first participation in the Games, describes himself as a Zionist to the core, quoting him, and who posted several messages on social media in support of the genocide in Gaza.

Let us remember that "genocide" is the term used by the UN Commission of Inquiry into the region.

Edelman, who notably said this about Israel's military intervention again, and I quote: "It is the most morally just war in history."

He also mocked a Free Palestine slogan on a wall in Lillehammer during a World Cup event.

And he asked his followers to send support to Ward Fawarseh when this member of the Israeli team, who is present here in Cortina, was involved in a military operation in Gaza in 2023.

So it's reasonable to wonder about his presence in Cortina during these Games, since the IOC had stated that athletes who, and I quote, "actively supported the war at pro-war events, by being involved militarily or through their social media, were not eligible to participate."

That was for the Russian athletes, but some were allowed to compete under a neutral banner.

Sport is obviously highly political.

We have no links. We have a very clear record that we have been willing to talk about.

My Husband took some rides on the airplane for his charitable work. I don’t recall ever meeting him.

Why do they want to pull us into this?

To divert attention from President Trump.

The US President keeps saying that they have the strongest military force in the world.

The strongest military force in the world may at times be struck so hard that it cannot get up again.

The Americans constantly say that they’ve sent a warship toward Iran.

Of course, a warship is a dangerous piece of military hardware.

However, more dangerous than that warship is the weapon that can send that warship to the bottom of the sea.

The US President in one of his recent speeches said that for 47 years the US has not been able to destroy the Islamic Republic; he complained to his own people.

For 47 years the US has not been able to destroy the Islamic Republic. This is a good admission.

I say: you will not be able to do this either.

Even those who took a few steps with the rioters are our children.

We pray for mercy for them; we ask forgiveness for them.

They made a mistake. May Almighty God guide them away from their error.

We are in mourning and sorrow over the blood that was shed in the recent unrest.

Time is very important for us; it is crucial.

And that's why Minister Araghchi has always said that we would be ready to stay here for a longer period, for days or even weeks, to finalize any agreement.

We hope to see the same level of seriousness and good intention on the part of the American delegation.

I would like to tell the dear government officials, the respected officials, that no matter how much effort they put into their work, they must double it. They must multiply it.

We have many resources. The existence of this inflation in the country is illogical. The fall in the value of the national currency to this extent is illogical. This must be corrected.

And God willing, it will be corrected. The respected officials have started some work. They must continue this work with seriousness, with accuracy, and with consideration of all aspects.
