The price of blind hatred - Oman has chosen to lose the honor and benefits of hosting the 2016 Youth Sailing World Championships rather than admitting Israelis into its country.

The southern Israeli resort city of Eilat was chosen to host the 2016 RS:X World Windsurfing Championships.

World Sailing said it "deeply regretted" Malaysia's discrimination against two Israeli windsurfers who were refused entry to the youth championships in Malaysia.

World Sailing is demanding that competitors from all countries be allowed to participate equally after two Israeli windsurfers were refused entry to the youth championships in Malaysia.

Two Israelis, Yoav Omer and Noy Drihan, will not be able to defend their titles at the Youth Sailing World Championship in Malaysia after the Israel Sailing Association (ISA) announced they will not send a delegation because of anti-Israel demands made by organizers.
