"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Edmund Burke -Irish philosopher

George, well done keep up the good work, no person has done what you have done to keep Zimbabwe and Tibet in the forefront, hope they keep your show going.We need to have someone somewhere bringing all the human rights to the fore for the whole world to see.

Western countries have been trying to split China since 19th century. All Chinese have got used to western media’s “big guns” – human rights, democracy, Falun Gong, Taiwan problem, Tibet, Communist, etc etc…Hey, please don’t be too clever to make a conclusion. Calm down, guys. Dala Lama always wants to be the King of the group. Everyone wants to do that as well. That’s about politics and ideology. Just because of this, most of you would like to simply look China as your enemy in terms of economic, military, politics, and value systems. It’s absolutely not funny to hear “human rights in China” over and over again. Please hurry up, you don’t have too much time to hurt China which is getting stronger and stronger. It is not the China of 100 years ago. You can boycott any event hold in China, whatever. Let’s suggest our PM and Treasurer not work with China, stop our mining contracts, please stop, please don’t buy any product made in China. Then, you can see how united Chinese people and their government are. Please do that, honestly. Take your first action, click the button of “I disagree”. Thanks.

China's ultimate goal has always been to improve its standing and power in the world, without compromising control of its interests. In order to achieve this it has killed or imprisoned political, religious or other ethnic groups, stolen technology, bought stakes in large corporations, prevents protests, censors the media, perpetrates violence in other countries, manipulates to gain the resources it needs, enforces controls over religion and so on, the list is enormous. Boycotting of the Olympics in Beijing by the athletes and sporting bodies around the world, is unfeasible. Given the preparation and effort these athletes have undertaken, it would be unfair to tell them they cannot compete for reasons outside their sport. The problem does seem as large as its huge population, growing power and influence. However, there are several options that if well organised could work. Conduct some research about the Chinese culture, history and the Chinese Communist Party. They have two social concepts called mianzi and lian. In English we refer to this as "saving face". Essentially it is the avoiding of embarrassment even if this means lying (which is an acceptable practise.) This is one of the driving forces for their decisions. It is also their weakness. Write letters and send petitions to your governments' members. They alone cannot be expected to do the right thing when they virtually all have economic interests within China. It only takes one brave politician/diplomat to bring the issues in front of the world's attention, safe in their knowledge they are supported by their constituents, who are in turn being supported by their citizens. The countries that will host the Olympic torch should permit visible protesting along the routes of the torch where the world and especially China's media will be present as a symbolic and bold statement of freedom of speech. Keeping it civil and visible is the key. There are many students from China being educated outside of their country. Empower these students with the truth about their country and a sense of ethical responsibility for their governments' actions. Arming their citizens with cameras will allow them to report, document and obtain proof of events, like in Tibet. Boycotting Chinese products can't be understated enough; this is where their power and influence stems from within corporate and government circles. As consumers, take responsibility for what you purchase and check the labelling. If it is made in China, avoid it. Support your countries local brands and businesses instead. All countries should become as self sufficient as possible, it is in our best interests to do so. Petition the UN to remove China's veto powers. It hasn't got the human rights record to use it responsibly. Offer another nation at the top of the human rights list the power instead. Together we can provide the solution.

Please use “Anti-China” instead of “No human rights, no democracy, free Tibet”. Guys, let’s say that. Media, let’s say “Anti-China” loudly in Australian news report, if you are brave enough. Support Dala Lama, support US, support India to bring troops to Tibet, and then take over China. Yeah, stop its economic booming, stop it, let’s do that, American, European, and Indian. Do whatever that can hurt Chinese and China. And then, you can control that area in your way. Let’s say that, say, loudly, if you are brave enough. Let all Chinese people see your true thoughts in your mind.

Human Rights violations in China are in flagrant contradiction with the Olympic Charter. Instead of improving their Human Rights issues, as they promised, they've gone the other way in Tibet and in China. The world's politicians should take a firm stand against China and boycott the opening and the closing ceremonies.

Really just mind our own business,Saying sorry does not rectify what was done,the same for the UK all over the world the US IN viet., Iraq ETC,ETC

United State should send troops to Tibet as she has done with Iraq. The US senate should act now instead of paying lips service to all the Tibetans.
