Maybe you should have taken part in the campaign lots of people were doing before Bejing was chosen. I do recall lots of people looking for support to get the olympic committee not to give the games to them in the first place. So were you part of the campaign then are is this a new found one due to the acts of the last few days. China has always been like that with Tibet, why I do not like China for decades and did press and send messages to the members of the committee not to give the games to China.

Except for the nuking you would have had a point if you were serious.
China is not a good nation. They don't deserve the honor or PR moment of the Olympics.
In the old days the games were held in one place so the press could cover them all. Nowadays we have the Internet and satellite coverage. We could hold the swimming events in Jamaica, the track and field in Los Angeles, and other events around the world. That would leave China hanging where they belong.
China was chosen years ago. Some people weren't old enough to take a stand and others (like myself) were not listened to. I blame some of this on our media since they chose not to tell the whole truth about China.
Boycott China!!!

The tibetans should have done this during the olympics with the world's eyes on China. Not that that would've helped much. I guess the burmese monks who were slaughtered last year could have told them that the Chinese would get away with it.
