The beijing olympics opening ceremony

jong june... ping pong..

 

Will you stop?!:toetap05:

 

i watched it, it was so fantastic... and slovakia 4ever :seeya:

 

But they won't. Politics are tied to the Olympics at the hip. That's the nature of them. It always has been, as it's a forum for international dialogue. '

It's not as if this is some Chinese movie opening and a bunch of people sitting around in the theater and talking about Chinese politics. This is the Olympics, the symbol of international dialogue. It's more than just sport.

Of course people are going to talk about it. It's the nature of them. You can like all you want. It's against the very meaning of them.

Did that slip your radar


I loved the opening ceremony.
It was on a little too long though.
The best bit for me, were the firework footsteps that covered six miles.
That was truly awesome.

 

I'm boycotting the 2012 olympics because you guys burned down the white house. :biggrin:

 

MI... ?? chow ming ping pong...

with power and extreem grace and beauty... american idol from beijing
wait that dont make sence but it sure feels the same .....

 

And we'll do it again if you piss us off

 

Off course, there's 'politics' and there's 'politics'...One, as this international dialog you were mentioning, is necessary and respected, while the other, as media wars, hunting people who doesn't think like you and using it as a vent for your own personal problems or, even worse, gaining the personal profit, is what makes me sick when the politics is subject of any conversation....
So, let's just forget about it, at least for this one day of opening and enjoy the spectacular view and competitions between world's greatest athletes...

I've been to the first Olympics stadium in Greece and I can't explain the feeling of standing in the middle of it....If you could see that, you would understand why for those few days nothing else mattered....

 

the latest buzz on the net is that the weaponized H7N3 flu virus as well as the H5N1 virus will be,or has already been released at the olympics..

heres a interesting read...

would be the perfect place to start a global pandemic now wouldnt it?

 

I'm stopping talking to ya now.
You have been fairly warned.

:willy_nilly:

 

I disagree. :biggrin:

 

much more effective... time to effect spaced out will be un-noticed..
But counter terrorism with anti bio weapons so instead all the pertispant are dosed with antibodies.... cant have a bunch of sick ppl in your country... But you can infect the weak and disabled that are not of the GAMEs.....
Destroy all poverty level ppl and the strong may live... Cant have sick poverty ppl you have to have dead poverty ppl.

 

If this doesn't happen will you admit you're crazy?

 

ping pong...

 

i never said it would happen,,i just said its the latest buzz in certain circles on the internet..
and that it would be the perfect place to do such a thing.. i mean you have representatives from at least 240 countries there.what a way to spread it and quick..

so no i have no reason to think im crazy nor admit i am..

 

That's your civil right.

 

pong....

 

Ahhhhhhhh that's why I started watching abba videos at 9am this morning. OK.

 

I was being facetious, lode. In the context of your flirtation with another poster whose sig reads "Fuck you China. Fuck you."

But boycotting is bad enough.
