Everything I said were documented facts. I wasn't making anything up. But rightfully so that you should love your country. Is there a place on the planet which has more history or culture then China? Where would the west be without China? Half of everything I own is probably made over there. Many of the great advances in science and culture have come from China. Honestly I think the government is afraid of too much change all at once. I think if they got our of the way the Chinese people would rise to new heights. But if you were in China and you created a anti-government site, how long would it be running and how long before you went to jail? In the US, everyone has the right to speak their mind about the government without fearing for themselves or their family. In London, their is even a corner by a park where people do so out loud. Think that would go over well in Beijing. We all saw how well the Tibet protesters were treated. Please though take my comments as pointed to the Government, not the people. If I got something wrong, now is your change to educate me. Don't be defensive, speak the truth and we can all learn from that.

So were not even half way through the Olympics yet and we have realized that the little girl singing wasn't real, the firework footsteps were not real, the air in Beijing isn't real and the passports of the girls gymnastics team are not real. Seems the Chinese have forgotten for it to count it has to be real. What is real is that if you take pictures of school rubble from the earthquake and put it on the internet you will end up in a labor camp. The lack of freedom of speech and true freedom of religion in this country is very real. The oppression of people in China and Tibet and the Authoritarian government is also very real. Its easy to forget all that all those girls that we saw in gymnastics were taken from thier families at age 3 and only see thier parents once a year.
China is a Potemkin village, anywhere tourists might wander. It's still a pseudo-communist regime run by a despot and his henchmen, and nothing will change that until the world brings pressure to bear financially. A few years ago we had a regular member from China. At first his English was comical and annoying, but as he improved his language skills (like I have room to talk - I can't speak a word of Chinese) he began to ask questions about the outside world. I found him quite interesting, though tragic in his ignorance. I recall posting pictures or describing a public event once, and he and I talked about it at length. He couldn't quite believe that it is possible to hold a large event without having a policeman armed with a machine gun every 50 feet or so. He couldn't grasp the idea that a riot would not spontaneously erupt without a heavy armed force in attendance. It just wasn't natural. There were so many things he wanted to know about the real world, and many of us tried to answer his questions. Over time I think he began to believe me and the others that spent the time talking with him, but we'll never know. He disappeared from CodeProject one day a couple of years ago. I can't even find him in the Who's Who anymore, since the search function doesn't work. I think his name is Zhougen, and I wish him well. I miss his innocence, and his desire to know what life in the real world is really like, what life could be anywhere but where he lives.

So were not even half way through the Olympics yet and we have realized that the little girl singing wasn't real, the firework footsteps were not real, the air in Beijing isn't real and the passports of the girls gymnastics team are not real. Seems the Chinese have forgotten for it to count it has to be real. What is real is that if you take pictures of school rubble from the earthquake and put it on the internet you will end up in a labor camp. The lack of freedom of speech and true freedom of religion in this country is very real. The oppression of people in China and Tibet and the Authoritarian government is also very real. Its easy to forget all that all those girls that we saw in gymnastics were taken from thier families at age 3 and only see thier parents once a year.
"Its easy to forget all that all those girls that we saw in gymnastics were taken from thier families at age 3 and only see thier parents once a year. " There are so many parents who want to send their child to the gymnastic team.For they think this is a chance for their child becoming a star.And their families can visite the children as their wish.Also,they can choose another future for their child. China do have a lot of problems.But when u point out them,use some suitable proof. "The oppression of people in China and Tibet" Who have been Tiebet and get some feelling about the oppression of people in Tibet?As I know,the Tibetan owns more rights than us.Tibet is one part of china from long time ago.There is no doubt about it.

They are sent to training by parents who want to make a better life for their kids and themselves, which is not much different from the rest of the world. Nobody is forcing the families to do so. Most of the problems in China are true. But you don't need to pity chinese, they are quite happy today comparing to 30 years ago. If you wish the country just collapse, you need to see a psychiatrist.

Actually, there are constant pressure on them to produce more cheaper products for the rest of the world, so far they liked it.

I guess the real question is, if there are these problems ( and I am not saying otherwise ), why were they given the olympics, unless it was to exert some sort of pressure ? And if that was it, where is that pressure ?

It is their turn. 99% of them probably don't think it is a favor given to them.
