If you don’t know what is happening in Tibet, please visit my sister blog.
I was so saddened when I heard that the great Olympic spirit of peace was going to be rewarded to the brutal Chinese regime!!!! >>However, I am even more upset that America (my country) hasn’t protested these Beijing games. >>Their human rights record is appalling as you know. Plus, I am concerned at how much America has cozied up to the regime via uncontrolled trade. I believe in trade with China but under some major conditions.>>They currently feel like they can get away with anything because they have been for years now!! >>Why stop doing the bad when despite such actions you’re being rewarded?!! It’s a sad sad situation all around.
