This question is directed towards people that aren't Americans, because I don't want any biased responses. Was the Korean Olympic Commitee being unreasonable when they got upset when Apollo Ohno won the gold in short track? The Korean finished first, but was disqualified for pushing Ohno, and the Koreans got really upset, and threatened to withdraw from the Olympics. The judge who made the decision to disqualify the Korean was Australian, so it's not like he was doing it to get a gold for his country.
