Bush should tell China to shove the torch up their butts
“In the face of this genocide, do our athletes stay home or go to the games?”
We show up. We compete. And we win. Just like in Berlin in 1936.
Boycotting the Moscow Games didn’t help the Afghans and boycotting the Beijing Games won’t help the Tibetans. Such a move would only isolate China further and prolong the trouble.
I won’t watch one second of their stupid games.
Maybe Tibet, Hong Kong and Taiwan will all declare independence before or during the games.
They don’t seem to think it’s a dilemma.
China is worried about the olympics making them look bad. As long as they occupy Tibet, there will be animosity toward China, no matter what happens at teh olympics.
should China show some real class, by givint Tibet their independence, the olympics wouldn’t matter.
typical shortsightedness is gonna keep China in the world’s woodshed because they’re focusing on appearances rather than substance.
there is a real potential here for China to come looking REAL good. bet the muff it again.
It´s not about the Olympics, it´s not about sports or economics at all. It´s about freedom and morale! The entire free world should put low prices aside when it means to support a country that enslaves its citizens!
I understand that JFK isn´t popular among conservatives in America, but he got one thing right:
“Freedom is indivisible. When one man is enslaved, all are not free.”
While we cannot interfere in China and liberate the people of Tibet, we can show solidarity - by cancelling the Olympics, and by starting a boycot of Chinese goods. China is powerful. But in the end, freedom must prevail!
