How many of you have have boycotted Chinese products. How many of you know of businesses who have stopped doing business in China.

Re: Boycott of Olympics
thats ridiculous. the arabs fought and died for the british who promised to give them the land of palestine. then they double crossed the arabs and gave it to the jews instead because they felt sorry for them. palestine belongs to the arabs. fucking usa wont stop backing israel up though...why i cant imagine..withoutaface said:

Re: Boycott of Olympics
Perhaps they support Israel for the "robust democracy" (Kevin Rudd) that it is?
Or perhaps its because Israel also "stands for personal independence, a free parliament and an independent judiciary" (Brendan Nelson)
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that Americans like Australians should never allow Israel to become a stranger as "No Australian who believes in the dignity of man, in freedom and in democratic principles should ever, through neglectful indifference, allow Israel to be a stranger. To do so would be to diminish ourselves and our own true security. " (Brendan Nelson)
Of course, these are just suggestions, I can't fathom it either.
Ha!

Amen. This is the most sincere and profound view of what the Olympics should really be about I've heard in a long time.JaredR said:

Re: Boycott of Olympics
Are you talking about the Holocaust? The Stateless Jews.
On the contrary the Arabs of the Mandate of Palestinian held allegiance to Egypt, Jordan and Syria all established Arab States with far more military and economic viability than the newly founded Jewish State.
Anyway this is about the abuse in China. If you want to talk Israel, create a new thread.

Re: Boycott of Olympics
Say what you want, do what you will, I'm not arguing about this anymore. I wouldn't care if no one goes to the Olympics this year.
The bottom line is, China has killed nobody. It's all hype. Believe it or not. China's innocent.
..and who says we don't have human rights? Who says we don't have freedom of speech? Who says that we don't have respect? Where did that come from? If you point them out to me, I'll show you that they're all hype. We've been mistaken again and again. Where do we get the knowledge from? From the media, from the Australian media, from the Tibetans, but not from China herself.
The government doesn't need to stand out to say anything.
IF YOU'VE DONE NOTHING WRONG, IF YOU'VE WALKED STRAIGHT, YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT YOUR SHADOWS STRAYING. One day you'll all realize that you've been blind. Mark my words. This century belongs to China and no one'll be able to snatch that away.
...but no matter how many times the torch's been smothered by water from protesters or any other desperate, classless acts take place, the show will go on.
...and it will flourish.
This is all I have to say. Boycott all you want. We're still going to be the best.
P.S. There's a real sense of community back there. Here it's cold. You can be dead for a year and no one'll notice.

Nice One Mr. Rudd.
Bring up Tibet- nice way to strengthen the ties with one of the worlds most powerful countries. In 20 years China will grow by 350 million people, more than the whole population of USA. Lets make them our enemies. Nice move Mr. Rudd.
