Blame China!

(October 4, 2007) As the 2008 Beijing Olympics approach, China is catching lots of blame for human rights abuses. Film stars are up in arms about Darfur, and Tibetian refugees are protesting Chinese occupation. Everyone is demanding that Myanmar's repression of pro-democracy marchers be stopped - by China. Even the sole superpower is pleading with China now, although President Bush still plans to attend the Olympics next year.
