Now it’s 2008, we’re just one month away from Beijing Olympic Games.
Several heads of States already confirmed participation in the first political opening of an Olympic Game from XXI Century. Yes, political.
Why not speak about the megalomaniac greatness of these Games, as a matter of fact, one sister of the Olympic Games of 1936.

We only discovered about the slave campsAuschwitz , Treblinka and other death camps after the end of World War II.
And even then many people didn’t want to, if the American Commander didn’t record in pictures and films the holocaust, a lot of people would say then and today: it didn’t happen.
And we try to forget that liberty was shot inTiananmen Square 19 years ago.
We can’t run from the comparison.

Once president Kennedy said that “we choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.”
Beijing
It’s easy to forget the slave camps who manufacture cheap things for us.
It’s easy to forget the political oppression and the end of liberty.
And I invite you to do the same, not because it’s easy, but because it’s right.
