Bush says the games are just a sporting event
Others may feel a bit more strongly.
We heard the megaphones a mile away this morning, opened up the windows and looked down on Centre Street to see the banners blowing and colors flying: Tibetan National Uprising Day, commemorating the day, 49 years ago, when Tibetans took to the streets in protest of the Chinese occupation.
The struggle has not waned since. The latest pressure point are the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Protesters are calling for a US Boycott of the games–not unprecedented: we stayed out of the 1980 Moscow Olympics because Russia was playing war in Afghanistan. Despite celebrity support (Steven Spielberg stepped down from the Olympic Board to protest China’s bolstering the Sudanese regime), a total boycott looks unlikely. President Bush has decreed the Olympics “just a sporting event,” so what’s the big deal?

What Steven Spielberg did was a righteous action and one that he can of course afford to do.. The Ccp has shown and will continue to show its true colours to the world and this will definably sort out the righteous from the evil in this dharma ending period in the world today.
It’s the Ccp who has politicised these Olympic games by jailing, persecuting and removing the basic human rights of the Chinese especially the Human rights activists and human rights defenders and the people of faith while spewing forth massive amounts’ of propoganda to brainwash all Chinese citizens.
BTW the Chinese communist regime boycotted the Moscow Olympics in 1980 citing political issues. This info needs to be spread widely
Why would the international community expect the Chinese communist regime to stop Genocide in Darfur or anywhere else in the world when they are committing their very own Genocide on the peaceful practitioners of Falun Gong in China.
Spielberg would do better in exposing the atrocities committed inside China.
Read the report about the Chinese communist regime committing live forced organ harvesting to the Falun Gong and selling their organs for large money to the rich foreigners.

Crimes Against Humanity and the Olympics cannot co-exist in China.
Some truths are intolerable
Our Governments know about it
Our media know about it
Human Rights organisations know about it
Now you know about it
