This is what i have been saying for a long time. London better be prepared for the same treatment China has recieved because Iraq, Afghanistan and all the other crimes are far bigger reasons to protest than Tibet. And as the article says every major nation who hosts a sporting event better be prepared because the attack dogs have set a precedent to be followed.

They talk about the failure of socialism but where is the success of capitalism in Africa, Asia and Latin America?

That's the reason why it remains at the level of a few protesters. The politicians don't want to take it anywhere else and Clinton has made a mistake in scoring a few points with her followers by getting on the bandwagon. China won't forget.

Why should Britain boycott the chinese olympic bid? Well, we're talking about a government which is secretive and controlling, hates dissent, uses its military to occupy other countries and holds people without charge longer than anybody else, and frankly the Chinese aren't much better.

There isn't enough time in the day to criticize other nations when the US is the huge threat to the world today. Everything else pales in comparison.

Were have all the China bashers gone ? Surely they haven't come to their senses and realised they are being hypocrites so long as they support governments like those in Washington and London.
