Burma Another Reason to Boycott China Olympics
I told you August 11 that everybody wants to boycott China's Beijing 2008 Olympic games but nobody agrees on why (cultural genocide in Tibet; regular genocide in Darfur; defective and dangerous products; catastrophic pollution; animal cruelty; slaughter of endangered species; repression of citizens; censorship; repression of the Falun Gong -- take your pick). Now everyone from EU ministers to San Francisco protesters are calling for a boycott based on China's active support of the CRACKDOWN IN BURMA. Why don't we all come together and boycott the Olympics because of the entire list?

Oh pleeze. The "Saffron Revolution" is carbon-copy of the other CIA orchistrated color-revolutions.
Anug San Suu Kyi’s connection with the CIA (thru our intelops like DIA officer Col. Robert Helvey) and the Karen insurgency is an open secret:

And is it a big suprise all this ties back to the American Enterprise Institute, the chief architect of the Iraq war:

“Helvey “was an officer of the Defence Intelligence Agency of the Pentagon, who had served in Vietnam and, subsequently, as the US Defence Attache in Yangon, Myanmar (1983 to 85), during which he clandestinely organised the Myanmarese students to work behind Aung San Suu Kyi and in collaboration with Bo Mya’s Karen insurgent group”
Here’s more background on Col Robert Helvey and CIA’s agenda to employ non-violent warfare to destablize other countries (the organge/velvet revolutions being the most recent examples):

Mike, take a closer look at the RSF poster. Are you aware of the fact majority of RSF's funding is from the CIA and European Commission, and does their political biddings?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reporters_Without_Borders#Controversy_and_Campaigns
Please read the CounterPunch and Le Monde expose on RSF.
I read the Wikipedia entry and didn't find anything about the CIA.
What you're saying is that CIA is actively promoting the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights and that this is somehow something to be opposed, yes?

Even if the CIA, Trilateral Commission, The Gnomes of Zurich and other Illuminati are all behind the Burma protests (which they're NOT), it still wouldn't make it a bad thing and there are plenty of other reasons to boycott the Berlin 1938, er Beijing 2008 Olympics.
Please.
Watch out for Bobby Fletcher alias Charles Lui. He has business ties with China. I am a Falun Gong practitioner only wishing for the persecution of all Falun Gong in China and elsewhere at the hands of the Chinese comunist regime to stop.
read this article exposing him. He like to send propoganda about CIA backing to all groups who are concerned about Human rights and other catastrophes in China.
Western Standard (Alberta): Sowing Confusion; Embarrassed by reports of live organ harvesting, China’s sympathizers launch a high-tech disinformation campaign
April 9, 2007 Monday
Final Edition
SECTION: NEWS; Pg. 24
LENGTH: 699 words
HEADLINE: Sowing Confusion; Embarrassed by reports of live organ harvesting,
China's sympathizers launch a high-tech disinformation campaign
BYLINE: Kevin Steel, Western Standard
BODY:
He posts his messages everywhere under several different names on Internet blogs and discussion groups. He writes letters to the editor anywhere and sends e-mails to anyone--anyone who might take seriously shocking evidence that the Chinese government "harvests" and sells live organs from political prisoners. His main message is that the Falun Gong--the group which first brought evidence of live organ harvesting to light--and the Epoch Times newspaper that broke that story are spreading propaganda against China's Communist government. And he's not even Chinese. He is Charles Liu, a 40-year-old Taiwanese-born technology consultant who lives in Issaquah, Wash., and does business in China.
Liu has been so active and so pro-Beijing in his writings that some Falun Gong supporters--in particular Epoch Times reporter Jana Shearer--have accused him of being an agent for the Chinese government, waging a disinformation campaign against them, trying to confuse people, and deliberately wasting everyone's time.
It's a charge that upsets Liu, who dismisses it as "a bunch of kooky friends making unfounded accusations. It's just a bunch of blog BS." As for why he devotes so much energy to attacking the Falun Gong and the organ harvesting allegations, he says, "My position is that I simply don't agree with their brand of politics, because I observed their politics turning from anti-Communist party, to anti-China, and recently it's morphed into this anti-Chinese hysteria and that's going to be hurting people," he says.
As an Asian-American, he says he decided to speak up.
He doesn't really explain, when asked, why he started a blog last year called "The Myth of Tiananmen Square Massacre" under the name of Bobby Fletcher (one of his online aliases, which he also uses to comment on the Western Standard's online blog). On that blog, he pushes the minimal 250 casualty figure that the Chinese government has always maintained died that night in 1989 (more reliable estimates put the figure at least ten times that).
Liu's actions mirror disinformation campaigns waged by the Chinese
Government in the past. Typically, these include the deliberate spreading of false or misleading facts to sow confusion or doubt among the conflicting accounts. The classic example is the Tiananmen Square massacre; the Chinese government has maintained that no one died in the square itself, that there was only pushing and shoving on the streets around the square, resulting in a few military casualties. Overseas, the CCP relies on its United Front Work
department, part of the Chinese intelligence service, to propagate its message. During the Cold War, the Soviets employed many overseas flunkies through their Disinformation Department.
Former Canadian MP David Kilgour, who co-authored a report on China's
macabre organ harvesting industry, has received many propaganda e-mails from Liu. For instance, Liu has written repeatedly that a U.S. congressional committee looked into the organ harvesting allegations and found nothing.
"[David] Matas and I gave evidence to that subcommittee and got support from both the Republican chairman and the Democratic vice-chair," says Kilgour. "I just came to the conclusion he was trying to waste my time, and I have other things to do."
Winnipeg-based human rights lawyer, and Kilgour's co-author, David Matas, really doesn't know what to make of Liu. "I don't know who he is, but what he does is spend a lot of time replicating nonsense to defend the Chinese government," Matas says.
The only concern Matas has is that Liu seems to know who he and Kilgour met with in the United States to discuss their report. Matas discovered Liu had sent e-mails to politicians--and their staff--prior to the meetings. "The only people who would have that information would potentially be the Chinese government. I can't imagine how Liu would know we were meeting with those people," Matas says. "We're not super-secretive, but you can't find information on the Internet or in any public place about who we're meeting with, where and when." He himself has received at least 10 e-mails from Liu, all of which he's ignored. Maybe Matas is onto something with that approach.
Silly people, China is the only true democracy out there. They have a Utopian society and it's CIA propaganda that keeps the rest of the world thinking otherwise. The CIA also installed the firewall around China to ensure that new reports of their heaven on Earth don't leak out.
CIA, Capturing Idiots' Attention since 1947 :)
We do not support boycotting the Olympics
The "Olympics Blogger" links to a blog post that does not allow comments. (Sort of the model that blogger advocates for China and Burma.)
So I'll post the comment I was going to post there, here:
***** defending the Olympics, sports and the athletes from the people who choose to use the Olympics as leverage in convincing China to act or intervene on behalf of a foreign country... virtually blackmailing China. *****
No one is asking China to intervene, only to STOP BLOCKING UN action on Burma. China is actively destroying a near international consensus and, essentially, selling it's veto on the security council in exchange for Burmese oil.
The problem is the selection of China as a host. The Olympic movement learned nothing from the experience of granting the Olympics to the Nazis. Somebody's got to punish those people for choosing yet another authoritarian Big Brother society to host the games. It has to stop.
***** I firmly believe that the Burmese people alone should be the one to determine their destiny. *****
Exactly. That's called Democracy.
Enabling the Burmese people to determine their destiny is what the Burmese people are fighting for.

HI Mike I also received a comment from The Olympic Blogger on my blog which I posted but also realized they did not post my comment on their blog.

The Olympic Blogger Sounds like a true dictatorship. Strange what some people call a democracy.
Sounds like propoganda from the Ccp spies that are everywhere. Everything that comes out of the Ccp's mouth is utter nonsense and lies. Please do not believe anything they say. It’s a trap to buy more time and deflect criticism from their own appalling Human rights inside China!!
This is poem/song being sung at the Global Human Rights Torch relay

Feels Like 1936 Again
The Olympic Spirit hangs its head in shame
When police states are allowed to host the games
Like Germany when Hitler reigned supreme
Seeking glory for his murderous regime
Now China wants to shine upon that stage
East and West are eager to engage
But human rights the CCP disdains
Feels like 1936 again.
Can you hold an international track meet
When you got a labor camp right down the street?
Can you sponsor the Olympics in 08
When you still imprison people for their faith?
The CCP will change what can be seen
They’ll even paint the grass and mountains green
But their evil nature always will remain
Feels like 1936 again.
They torture people seven days a week
The shock batons are sizzling as we speak
They harvest organs from the Falun Gong
Then cremate them to hide what’s going on.
Put me on your blacklist I don’t care
I hope the people boycott this affair
The stench of genocide is in the wind
Feels like 1936 again.
Reports about the slaughter of the Jews
Quite often didn’t even make the news
The world still seems to have a tendency
To ignore big crimes against humanity
When virtue comes in second place to trade
Freedom, hope and justice start to fade
The Olympic flame is flickering and dim
Feels like 1936 again

It's short, it's impressive and you simply cannot watch it, hear it and DO ANYTHING!
B F,
you are full of crap.
Have you ever been to Burma? You sound like a slorc member (or whatever they are currently calling themselves.
Worse case, simply refuse to turn on the TV when the Olympics come on.
Anonymous is right - push a worldwide boycott of TV and Olympic products. If no one makes money it will have an effect.
