One single athlete was to defend Iraqi colours at the Beijing Olympics.
Though he was a weightlifter, the pressure was obviously too heavy for his shoulders : he tested positive for drugs.
Despite the fair supply of naturally homegrown forbidden products, steroids appear to have been his drug of choice : the kind of guy to have a hamburger at McDonald's rather than a proud local shish-kebab.
The Iraqi Olympic Committee has recovered from the initial blow and decided to select a new athlete.
Why not one of these fine rifle shooters the country seems so well endowed with ?
