A West German sport organization, Hessischer Sport Jugend, cancelled a visit of an Israeli sports delegation to Frankfurt because of the war in Lebanon. Formerly, members of the West German organization visited Israel and were hosted there by a sports association. While the move of the Hessischer Sport Jugend was aimed at showing displeasure with Israel’s policy in Lebanon, it also reflected the concern of the authorities over providing proper security.
