Lukashenko is better than Hitler?

History is replete with cases where such sanctions were applied.
U.S. turned to the International Ice Hockey Federation to desist from holding in Minsk Ice Hockey World Championship in 2014.
It is this moment ( do not need to be an expert ), contained in the Act on Democracy in Belarus, signed by U.S. President Barack Obama is the most interesting for the ...
Especially as a waiver or consent of the Ice Hockey World Cup in Belarus stipulate the requirement of an unconditional release of political prisoners. It is necessary to release and present, and avoid ...

Of course, the international sports organizations are independent in their decisions, but the call of the United States has every chance to be heard. In a mature play hockey mostly in the northern hemisphere teams represent the country in general, a standard and mature democracy, a developed civil society and active public opinion. They have no reason to strengthen the regime 's last dictator in Europe, providing an opportunity to speak at this forum and as a hospitable host, and play a full role of the representative of the global sports community.

In the end, the World Cup hockey - not the Olympic Games. It can be relatively easily adopted by any country where hockey is a traditional and popular sport and business, and not a hobby of a handful of rich and powerful.

In addition, the uniform rules should be not only on the playground, but also beyond its borders. In particular, it should be clarified concepts are often used by participants in the dialogue. After all, this U.S. demand to release political prisoners, ensuring democratic processes, freedom of assembly, demonstration, press and speech. And in Minsk believe that since all provided in Belarus at the highest level, the political prisoners there, and can not be. There are criminals who have suffered the deserved punishment.

In Belarus, the generally accepted concept used so specific that sometimes one and the same definition represents a completely heterogeneous objects. For example, a typical Zubatov organization proudly called by trade unions, and the secret political police without any hesitation is recognized in the implementation of total surveillance and investigation. The same applies to the formula according to which sport should be above politics.

Outside of politics, with a certain degree of conventionality, could be a purely amateur sport at the level of municipalities and university championships. But where the funding for athletes becomes a matter of state and private business, it exists as one of the refractions of specific policies. The right to hold the championship of Belarus was granted in order to encourage it to develop in the spirit of the civilizational. To help this progressive development through fun fun, at least for a time reconciling political enemies. However, the Belarusian leadership has not shown any serious intent, no real steps in this direction.

Therefore, it may be deprived of such opportunities.

History is replete with cases where such sanctions were applied, and when the international organizations lacked the determination to use them.

For example, after the First World War, Germany was excluded from the world of the Olympic Movement. As a country - aggressor. But it came to replace the Kaiser's regime, the Weimar Republic did much for the approval of parliamentarism, democracy, and for the rehabilitation of their country as a full-fledged subject of the international community. As a result, in 1931, even before the Nazis came to power, the application of democratic Germany to host the Olympics in 1936 was granted.

Hitler, who in principle and in public at a penny did not set the world community, believing that it is charged with the Jews and plutocrats, believed that German athletes did not compete to face with the ... His point of view on the international Olympic movement was reflected in the official documents of the Nazi Party. However, after 30 January 1933 Hitler became Chancellor, the head of state, who is to hold the Olympic Games. That is to organize a competition with the German sporstmenov ...

The question naturally arises - why?.

We must give credit to Goebbels. He managed to convince Hitler that for the sake of propaganda effect, you can gently smooth the corners in the domestic politics. That is, it will be aimed at establishing Aryan order in the country, but in ways that may even be sympathetic to an outside observer. For example, arrested opposition leaders can be safely put away in concentration camps, to the same post and Jewish businessmen whose enterprises were converted into state property in the first place. Compensating for these temporary compromises, according to Goebbels, Germany will be the fact of admission of athletes, diplomats and journalists from around the world who talk about real progress in all spheres, including sports. The Germans have always been a sporting nation... In the meantime, the authorities and citizens of the Third Reich was ordered to cease all public and private anti-Semitism. As a result, the movement started in the world to move the Olympics to another country was defeated.
