Olympic Committee lifts ban on Iraqi athletes
I'm glad to hear it, there are only two going, hopefully Iraq will stabilize and be able to send more in the future. The problems came from allegations that Prime Minister Maliki was politically involved with people in Iraq's Olympic Committee, which would compromise it's neutrality. The problem is that the Iraqi Olympic Committee was kind of a thrown together affair, after four members of the Iraqi Olympic Committee were kidnapped and vanished without a trace two years ago.
