    Revealing Roles : ωϭοϭϣϟ΍ϡγ΍ How Sports Reflect Middle East¶s Political : ωϭοϭϣϟ΍ϥ΍ϭϧϋ Interactions 06/03/2018 : έηϧϟ΍ΦϳέΎΗ ΔϣΩϘΗϣϟ΍ΕΎγ΍έΩϟ΍ϭΙΎΣΑϸϟϝΑϘΗγϣϟ΍ίϛέϣ : ΏΗΎϛϟ΍ϡγ΍ : ωϭοϭϣϟ΍ Sports are being used by governments in the Middle East to serve political purposes and impact public opinion. The trend emerged clearly in the past months. Sports reflected strained relations between states and were used to either highlight political convergence between friendly states, reiterate the role of mediating states as hosts for matches between disputing states, deny political legitimacy of adversaries, reaffirm the legitimacy of authoritarian political systems, bolster the role of certain social groups or gain a symbolic international stature. The influence of sports on interactions in the Middle East has expanded in varying degrees. The reason is that sports, as a social phenomenon, has a wide cross-border fan base and is focused on satisfying the audiences' inclination to indulge in competition and victory, so much so that the twentieth century has become to be known as the century of sports. This situation is not specific to the Middle East. Rather, sports, which morphed into an influential phenomenon impacting the entire international political system, and became a tool used by states to implement their foreign policy objectives and promote political visions and strategies. Lord Killanin, who once headed the International Olympic Committee admitted that ³sport is intertwined with politics.´States use sports to achieve their goals of convergence or divergence with other states, which reflect on their relations. Athletes participate in games as representatives of their home countries and not as individuals, because competition with teams from other countries is deeply seated in a sense of national pride.
