Mr. Kai Chen, an Los Angeles resident, has printed up 500 T-shirts with his own money and has begun a campaign asking athletes and tourists to wear his T-shirt when they take part in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Reportedly, the front of the white cotton shirt bears the words "Beijing 1989 Tiananmen," with the red font dripping down onto "2008 Olympics".

The Chinese Communist Party has invaded East Turkistan since the end of WWII. East Turkistanis have been suppressed in many aspects, such as no regligious freedom, strict population control, isolation from the world, deprivation of education opportunities, racial discrimination, colonization by Mainland Chinese, etc.
Normal East Turkistanis have remained rather neutral and wish to receive more religious freedom. They still represent the majority of East Turkistanis in the so-call "Xinjiang/Uighur" region (formally known as East Turkistan/East Turkestan in history). Reportedly, however, Uighur militant groups (such as the East Turkestan Islamic Movement) have grown larger and have developed some linkage with al-Qaida. These militants receive training from the al-Qaida and desperately want East Turkestan to regain its previous status as an independent state.
Human rights group, such as Amnesty International, have repeatedly suggested to the Chinese Communist Party that its suppression of human rights in the region is not a solution to the East Turkistan problem. In fact, such suppression only turns a normal East Turkistani into an aggressive militant.
Some other sources (such as the Council of Foreign Relations), however, do not believe the claim by the Chinese Communist Party that Xinjiang separatist groups, including the ETIM, really threaten Chinese control of the region. The potential for the Uighur conflict to radicalize certainly, on the other hand, makes the Beijing Olympics much more unsafe than most people would expect.

The Beijing Olympics organizers have warned Taiwan, a virtually independent state that could not get a UN membership because of political reasons, that if it does not allow the Olympics Torch to pass through, then Taiwanese atheletes will not be able to participate in Beijing Olympics in 2008.
The organizer proposed that the torch should arrive in Taiwan from Vietnam on April 30, 2008. Then the torch will go to Hong Kong and Macau, two cities occupied by China since 1997 and 1999. Many Taiwanese have pushed for a route that passes Taiwan via Asian countries other than China.
According to the Olympics Charter, the Olympic Games are hosted by cities and participants are individual athletes, instead of individual nations. Using the Olympics torch as a political threat to force individual athletes out of the Olympics is a major violation of the Olympics Charter!

To prepare for Beijing Olympics 2008, the Chinese Communist Party has set some pollution target for Beijing.
It turns out that Beijing was unable to meet the target in May. In fact, the month of May turned out to be the most pollution month of the year!
By moving polluting industries out of Beijing, the Chinese Communist Party has been hoping to reduce the level of air pollution in Beijing to an acceptable level so that Beijing can host Olympics 2008 in a "glamorous" way! As usual, the Chinese Communist Party has overlooked many factors. The Northwestern region is the culprit for producing the smog in Beijing. Moving a bunch of substandard powerplants or factories in Beijing cannot solve the air pollution problem in Beijing because the pollutants are produced in areas close to Beijing but not in Beijing itself.
Now, the Chinese Communist Party must be worried about their dreams in their own world because their so-called "Green Games" will turn grey!

In seek of more natural resources that can fuel its high caliber of economic growth, China has been aligning with third world Asian and African countries, regardless of whether these countries have extremely poor human rights records.
In 2005, for instance, PetroChina signed an agreement with the Burmese dictatorship to obtain 6.5 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. In addition, China imported timber, gems, marbles, and other national resources from Burma. In exchange, China provided medicine, facilities, chemical products, agricultural technology, ... and above all, tanks, missiles, fighter planes, machine guns, ...
The current Burma is a military-state and a dictatorship. China is now the major supplier providing the Burmese dictatorship with 90% of its arms and amunition.
Human right reports indicate with photos and other solid evidence that the Burmese Army burns down villages, beats up children, and kills civilians. Some civilians become slaves working without any wages.
The Burmese Army also gang rapes women throughout Shan, Karen, Chin, and other states in Burma. To date, it is estimated that there are 2 million Burmese refugees. A huge number of people have been killed or died from disease and malnutrition with their homes destroyed.
The following video is dedicated to the boycott of Beijing Olympics 2008 for those Burmese who are suffering from the genocide committed by the Burmese dictatorship.
China is planning to build a highway on the top of Mount Everest, between Napal and Tibet. The Chinese Communist Party claims that the highway facilitates the Olympic Torch Relay that passes through Tibet.
Mount Everest, the world's tallest mountain, is 29,035 feet tall and straddles the border between Tibet and Nepal.
According to Phayul, taking Olympic torch to the top of Everest may well be a strategy of the Chinese Communist Party to underscore its claims to Tibet. This may eventually lead to unprecedented protests from Tibetans. In fact, four Free Tibet activists from the U.S. were arrested on Everest base camp in April after unfurling a banner calling for Tibet's independence.
Chinese Communist troops first occupied Tibet in 1950. The Dalai Lama, revered by Tibetans as their undisputed spiritual and political leader now lives in India after escaping Tibet in 1959. The following is a video that documents the reality of Tibetans' lives under the Chinese Communist occupation.
A seemingly trivial article posted on a Chinese discussion forum on June 7, 2007, uncovered a real case of child slavery in Shanxi, China. In less than a week, this article has attracted more than hundreds of thousands of views. Chinese citizens from all over China rushed in to discuss how an alleged 1000 child slaves abducted from the Henan province and eventually sold to the Shanxi province could be rescued.
The article described the child slavery in Shanxi as a tragedy resulting from the ignorance and indifference of the government officials in Shanxi, possibly due to corruption or alliance with unethical Shanxi businesses.
On June 16, in an interview with New York Times News Service, Liu Cheng, a professor of labor law at Shanghai Normal University explained that the incident is a typical example of a government-business alliance. Forced labor and child labor in China are illegal, but some local governments don't care too much.
The following are two videos posted by youtubers "daughterofchina" and "noolympics" about Shanxi child slavery:
Last week, there was a Japanese youtuber who posted a very funny video suggesting that we should boycott Beijing Olympics 2008. In the video, the youtuber pointed out the chaotic events happening in China, from food poisoning to pirating. Perhaps it is the right time for the world to review the decision of allowing Beijing to host Olympics 2008. The video also serves as a mirror for the communist dictators in China so that they can have a quick reality check of the problems they have created directly or indirectly in China in the past 50 years.
An ingredient in an ingested product, diethylene glycol, killed many users. The origin of the toxin was traced back to China. Investigation was virtually impossible because the Chinese manufacturer shut down shortly after the poisoning was revealed. China officials were totally uncooperative. Requests to find the manufacturer were ignored. Business records were withheld or destroyed.
This sounds very familiar. Wait a second, this is not Panama. This is Haiti. A decade ago, the same poisonous ingredient, diethylene glycol, killed innocent Haitians. How come it happens again in Panama?
People should learn that China is really not an advanced nation. It's level of business ethics can never be compared to those of advanced economies. This is worsened by the irresponsive Chinese government officials who are often described by main stream media as corrupt.

Underaged children have been found in factories that produce Olympic-related products. Some factories are known to hire children in school holidays. Reportedly, these children are each paid 20 yuan (about $2.50) a day. BBC's investigation confirms the report issued by an alliance called PlayFair 2008. According to the report some olympics-related factories had hired children who often had to work from 7:30am to 10:30pm.
The report published by the "PlayFair 2008 campaign group" can be found at the following link:

According to the report, labor right violations include:
A Korean human right group called 444 Days just launched a Boycott of Beijing Olympics 2008. Its recent protest accused China of violation of human rights by deporting North Korean refugees.
The Chinese communists have been accused of helping the North Korean dictatorship to launder money for the purchase of weapons and for the development of nuclear weapons that have become a major threat to the region.
Why should global consumers boycott Beijing Olympics 2008?
A human right writer, Demetrius Klitou, has listed the following ten reasons for boycotting Beijing Olympics 2008:
1) Human rights are practically non-existent in Communist China
Religious persecution, imprisonment and murder of non-violent political dissidents, torture, organ harvesting and sentences to hard labour are widespread.
2) The lack of freedom of the press and safety risks for foreign reporters
Many foreign websites are banned from being visited within China, foreign reporters are prohibited from interviewing anyone without previous permission from the government, and the content of all broadcasting is severely restricted. Foreign news media reporters have been arrested and sentenced to prison under vague and wide-reaching security laws.
3) The 1980 Olympic Games in Communist Russia were boycotted by 64 states, under the leadership of the U.S.
Beijing is not any different from Moscow in 1980, which was also the capital of a Communist police state.
4) Communist China constantly threatens to attack Taiwan
China's government passed a law that explicitly calls for military intervention in response to any intention by the democratic government of Taiwan to declare independence. Military manoeuvres indicate that the Communists' military is preparing to enforce this law.
5) Beijing has the most polluted air in the world
Studies and satellites photos have proven that Beijing suffers from extremely high nitrogen dioxide levels, vitally dangerous to the health of the athletes.
6) China is plagued by widespread social, political, and economic unrest
A surge in huge land grabs and forced evictions by the Chinese government for reasons of economic expansion and Olympic Games preparations have sparked thousands of protests. The government has murdered hundreds of protesters.
7) The Chinese have been bribing and threatening large numbers of members of the International Olympic Committee
A number of U.S. Representatives, for example, Congressman Tom Lantos, have stated this on national television.
8) A boycott has some potential to serve as a strategy to encourage human rights in China
Only the greedy and foolish global elite think this is true the other way around.
9) Holding the Olympic Games in Communist China contradicts the Olympic
Charter The Olympic Charter defines the philosophy of Olympism as the "respect for universal fundamental ethical principles" and its goal of promoting "a peaceful society concerned with the preservation of human dignity."
10) Don't repeat the errors of 1936 when Nazi Germany was allowed to host the Olympic Games
The Olympic Games will give Communist China the same propaganda tool Nazi Germany
enjoyed. Not since 1936 have the ideals of Olympics been so trampled upon.
