I agree with Alpinerabbit on this...I like the drawing & would love to see more of the artists work.
I don't think it took a genius to figure out that when the Chinese gov't won the rights to hold the 08 games that they would do anything to improve thier image etc. I will never ever travel to China based on thier human rights record. I don't care if they''ve opened thier doors to tourism, they closed the door on human rights back in '89. I remember watching the Tiananmen square protests when they first started & then the crackdown.
They've threatened to severely punish anyone that gets in the way of the Olympic torch relay when it arrives back in China.
I am angered at the Chinese citizens who say there's nothing wrong happening in Tibet & other areas. Excuse me? If the west wants to demonize China, go ahead.
I hope there's more disruption of the torch relay when it arrives in Canberra. The Chinese guards dressed in blue need to be challenged.
One less person interested in the 08 games-it's all commerical this year & companies with their heads up the chinese gov'ts behinds trying to pretend there's nothing happening.
Rant over...I'll stop now..
