(auto translated from Turkish) Kung Fu World Champion Nikmatin Irbakan Akioz has been cancelled for unfolding the Palestinian flag and performing the Dabka dance during the medal ceremony.

Two confusing words of Acuse: Perhaps with this post my athletic career ends, I am not at all sad because of my athletic career ending, my successes being taken from me, or because of my financial losses. My career, my sport, my money, my fame is nothing more important than any of the innocents who lost their lives in Palestine. I'm not taking my medal or my money to the afterlife. I would like to go to the afterlife as a man who tried to be the voice of the innocents as much as he could and got Mashallah.

He is about to lose his medal and banned from international competitions because of his actions during the gold medal ceremony.

IOC and KFW body may decide about this by next week. Unlike Russia who was banned from all international competitions, Israel has been spared from all criticism and instead those who try to show sympathy with Palestinians are being banned and punished.
