Can you believe ??? Lenny 2 Muslim countries sent athletes to Maccabiah Games Posted: 20 Jul 2013 11:30 PM PDT There are some unusual countries participating in the Maccabiah Games in Israel. One is Morocco, which may be the first time an Arab country participated since 1935. They sent one athlete, a swimmer. Turkey, on the other hand, sent 48 athletes, in swimming, futsal, basketball, table tennis, track & field, tennis and archery. Other countries sending delegations where one would not expect to find Jewish athletes include Mauritius (with 4 athletes), Botswana, Guinea-Bissau (10 athletes), and Cuba with 55 participants.
