ANARCHISM AT 2005 DEAFLYMPICS CONGRESS AND GAMES IN MELBOURNE: SEVENTY NINE ( 79 ) RULE VIOLATIONS
By Rafael Pinkhasov Pinchas, CISS/Deaflympics Ombudsman
New York, USA – Mismanagement, incompetence and ineptness by the CISS/Deaflympics officials are vividly demonstrated below as new and massive breaches in the CISS/Deaflympics legal system continue in this new year of 2005.
Did you know that before the start of the 39th CISS Congress on January 3, 2005, eight different nations, including the USA, failed to meet their certain financial obligations before the now-abolished Office of the CISS Treasury? Did you know that Donalda Ammons and David Lanesman were elected to their respective office positions of the CISS/Deaflympics President and Vice President in an unconstitutional manner during the January 4, 2005 Congress election session? Did you know that USA delegation illegitimately collected an aggregate of 33 medals, including 9 gold, 12 silver and 12 bronze, at the just-ended 20th Deaflympic Summer Games, which, by the way, was the worst total medal performance result by USA at the Games since 1961?
