Prior to the Olympic Games, the US fascist War Party attempted to derail the games by fomenting and financing the turmoil in Tibet, which resulted in the killings of hundreds of innocent men, women and children. The Dalai Lama was projected as the personification of virtue and democracy! The western media mounted a concerted and vicious campaign of disinformation and pointed to the unrest as evidence of China’s awful human right’s violations.
Taking us for fools the fascist war party assumed that the world had a short memory. Tibet, before its liberation from the stranglehold of the Lamas’ feudal-serfdom was a backward country and the majority of its people were landless and mere serfs. Anyone who opposed the rule of the Lamas were tortured, many had their eyes gouged out and their tongues cut off, and many more were massacred.
Today, Tibet has been transformed. The people are no longer serfs! They are free! However, the British and the Americans never lost hope that one day they could usurp power and turn Tibet into a staging ground for subversion and regime change in China. Thus far all their efforts have failed.
Why the violence at the eve of the Olympic Games?
When the scheme was exposed for what it is – a concerted effort to sabotage the Games – the obsequious Dalai Lama a CIA asset, beat a hasty retreat and called his lamas to stop the violence. This puppet has by his actions showed that he has used Buddhism as a political tool to regain power and install a Lama theocracy in Tibet.
While the Western mass media were politicising the Olympics, the world’s athletes gathered to exemplify the Olympic Spirit and what a spirit they displayed. And no one exemplified that spirit better that Usain Bolt of Jamaica, an Olympian from a developing country who shattered the 100m and 200m records. Nothing is impossible when the spirit and not money is the prime motivation!
This is most evident in the Beijing Olympics.
It was such a huge success that even The Independent graciously agreed that, “these are arguably the greatest Olympics of all ... Nowhere, not Montreal, Moscow, Los Angeles, Seoul, Barcelona, Atlanta, Sydney nor Athens, gave quite the same sense transmitted here of an Olympics so secure on its stage and so confident that it had a product that had not been exhausted by cheating on the field and relentless commercialisation of it.”
While Michael Phelps dominated the pool with eight historic gold medals, it is significant that in the track and field events, the US dominance evaporated. Could it be that in the past, they were doped-cheaters as so many of their “stars” have now been exposed as cheaters. Dope testing was most stringent in the concluded games and it may be that the US realised that their cheaters would no longer get away as in the past games and had therefore dutifully adhered to the rules to avoid further scandals.
Whatever may be the case, dope lost and clean sports won the day!
To me, what is so incredible and outstanding is that a nation has within 30 years surmounted all difficulties and challenges to show to the world what she is capable of. The achievement is more astounding, considering that only a few weeks before the games, the country suffered a massive earthquake that killed over 90,000 people and made millions more homeless. Any other country would be devastated and demoralised by such a catastrophe, but China and its people displayed a resilience and confidence that boggles the mind.
The display of such heroism and patriotism is to be admired and emulated. It shows what a country can achieve when it is united in its vision and determination.
One World, One Dream – an amazing vision for global peace and harmony.
