And Brazil and China don't have tons of poverty and corruption? You don't need to be rich to run the olympics, you just need to be relatively stable and able to host the events as planned.

I guess that means Nigeria or India or any developing country without a war going on could run the olympics if they wanted then

Both are bad examples because they have significant terrorist movements in the country (Boko Haram for Nigeria, and a whole mess of ethnic groups plus some Maoists in India)

Granted, that could have factored into Istanbul as well, the possibility of PKK action
