China ain't the one who sent Bhuto back to Pakistan (GW Bush and Condi Rice are responsible for that mess.) Because Bhutto was a child who could not make decisions for herself, eh? In Charles' one dimensional world everything is Bush's fault. He's a known idiot on s.c.c. Why don't you go back to looking for space rock and leave SCC alone? Because the People's Non-Republic of China continues to abuse its citizen's rights in ways that makes the Bush Administration look like rank amateurs. Most folks here ain't even Chinese, given the fact it is an English language group. Most folks in the world aren't Chinese. |

A special day: CCTV-5 changes name to The Olympic Channel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwHhRcRDAN0 From this video, doesn't this give you some idea what China is like today? It seems to me China has more freedom than America today!! These show China in a different light. You should get a job in the private sector. Soon your CCP paycheck will disappear when China goes the route of the Soviet Union and break into a dozen new countries. A dozen new countries that mostly try to become like Taiwan. Democracy and freedom always win in the end. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fkf2u1Umzi4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LPksYo2WUQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iF8KSN_Xdak http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuZXvazdX3s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keuE5aRkppc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_gsIIQOBsY s |

Perhaps Spielberg will wave to you from his plane while you are flipping burgers. China brought a billion Chinese back from misery & destitution. It has regained the pride that Great Nation fully deserved; Pride lost in the past Boxer Wars, Opium Wars & 2nd WW invasion Hitler also brought the German people prosperity. But it was short-lived, as dictatorships have this horrible habit of starting wars and going down in a blaze of misery. A rigid control structure combined with a changing evolving populace guarantees the two camps drift apart over time, building internal stress, with conflct and wars inevitable. In a democracy the two camps evolve towards each other over time, just the opposite. The only question becomes when will the CCP fall. Sooner is always better than later. The Olympics provide the ideal conditions to put an end to the CCP, as the entire country and world will be connected together at once. These are the first true internet games, where everything is online. Something will happen during the Olympics, and it won't be covered up or contained. We could easily see a dozen Tianenman Square size protests emerge at once. s |

This Olympics essentially legitimizes dictatorships in the eyes of the international community. That is absolutely unacceptable. Who are you to dictate what the Chinese people should or should not have? Shove your "democracy" and "legitimacy" up your arse, and leave us alone - we want no part of it! It's one thing to be pragmatic and accept a benign dictatorship while transitioning to democracy. But to say dictatorships are legitimate? These Olympics become political the minute Beijing was awarded the games. We need to make sure the winner of these games is...freedom. NOT repression. s s |
