  • With 100 days to go until the start of the Paris Olympics, French President Emmanuel Macron has warned the opening ceremony could be moved from its planned riverside location if the security risk is too high.
    The 26 July event is set to be the first Olympic opening ceremony held outside a stadium setting and will see about 10,500 athletes parade through the heart of the capital on some 160 boats on the Seine along a 3.7-mile route.

    An Olympics that requires so much security shows that the spirit of the Olympics is dead. To spend so much money over two weeks, is absolutely absurd. The world as it stands today does not deserve the Olympics. Do we tell the Israelis athletes to stay home, for fear of a repeat of 72? Does a country in conflict, which does not know how to live in peace, deserve to have athletes at the Olympics?

    For tourists, avoid going to Paris on July & August 2024. It's better to go to other places in France than to go to crowded places on the upcoming Summer Olympics 2024.

    I am curious and concerned about what we never hear about.
    There must be some serious threats to warrant this level of security.
    It's always better to prepare for anything. I really hope people embrace the spirit of the games and have political protests peacefully in ways that won't hurt people.
