I read the comment that said the Olympic Games couldn't have come at a better time. While it's true that the games shouldn't be cancelled or boycotted, the international community will probably waste the opportunity by failing to use the games to bring pressure to bear on the Chinese government. Every democratic country should unite and threaten to boycott the games unless Tibet is made free but instead, we know that foreign dignitaries will be queuing up for their free lunches, fawning and heaping obsequious praise on the Chinese authorities. I, for one, will be sickened.
