I dont think we should pull out.I would leave the choice up to each athlete.


This is probably a better idea. I'm not usually an alarmist with terrorist stuff but something about this gives me a bad feeling. You've got to know there is a lot of the extremist influence from the middle east in that area of Russia

I feel like if the US officially pulled out then its letting terrorist win. I know terrorist aren't exactly the most logical people in the world but committing an act of terror at the olympics in Russia just isn't a good idea. The Russians aren't going to play the political game if you kill Russian athletes or citizens/embarrass them. They don't have to worry about the media tying their hands behind their back like the US does. Also if the terror attack kills a US citizen then good luck on the US trying to back down Russia from crushing your country. It would be a sort of terrorist won a battle but sealed their fate on a larger scale.
