Faced with almost insurmountable evidence which suggests that He is two years younger than the birth date listed on her Chinese passport

And that may not be the only problem...

Could the IOC have more gravitas than the UN Security Council, who’s reaction to everything is “Stop, or we’ll tell you to stop again!” ?

I would be sorry to see her lose her medals if she actually earned them with her performance and not just heavy Chinese judge scoring. China needs to be slapped for the deception, not the agile lass. I don’t know how to do that but perhaps she could be held up as a talented winner while her medals are put in some sort of escrow or something and China loses the right to claim them for national ranking.

Too little, too late, our American girls may get the Gold, but not on the world stage, but back home months later!

You'd have to be blind not to see she wasn't 16!

Dog and Pony show. IOC and FIG knew for many months the chinese gymnists were underage, and allowed the farce to continue through the whole competition. No medals will be surrendered. No ban from international competition.
The damage has already been done since the medal award ceremonies have already happened.
The chinese will tell everyone to go pound sand. And why would they not? The IOC is as corrupt and toothless as the UN.

The Chicoms also played dirty baseball against the US team. They hit five batters, including one in the head, giving him a concussion. Fortunately, our team didn't take their crap. Knocked their starting catcher out of the game with a hard slide, slammed their 2nd baseman with a hard slide, and whooped them 9-1.

Punks.
