what does the cultural genocide being carried out against tibetans have in common with the genocide in darfur (besides being virtually ignored by the world)? they are both actively backed by the chinese government.

it is a travesty that the international community is rewarding the government of china with the 2008 olympics. to do this is to ignore and reward the staggering human-rights and environmental abuses being carried out by the ruthless chinese government. i vow not watch the beijing olympics, not to purchase any product that endorses the beijing olympics, and not to participate in or support any group that in any way endorses the beijing olympics, and i beg you to do the same.
