FILE - In this Aug. 2, 2012 file photo Lee El Korsiz of Israel competes during the RS:X women class race at the London 2012 Summer Olympics, in Weymouth and Portland, England. For one day at least, the jittery Israeli nation's concerns focused not on the Iranian nuclear threat, the bloody civil war in neighboring Syria or recent terror infiltration attempts from the lawless Sinai Peninsula. All were knocked off the front pages Wednesday, Aug. 8, 2012 in favor of different national tragedy: Israel's failure at the London Olympics. For the first time since the 1988 games, the Israeli delegation will return home without an Olympic medal. (AP Photo/Francois Mori, Files)
