The Genocide Olympics – Beijing 2008
New sports for the 2008 Beijing Olympics:
Monk shooting – Odds are Myanmar will do well in this event.
Village Burning - In this team sport, competitors vie to rape the inhabitants of a village then burn the huts afterward. Watch the Sudanese – they’re early favorites for the gold in this event.
Kowtowing - China is credited for single-handedly revising this Olympic sport which had been dropped after the 1936 Olympics. The American team – with team co-captains George HW Bush and James Baker with team mascot Jimmy Carter – is expected to score high in this traditional Chinese sport.
UPDATE:
The United States, Japan and others have turned a hopeful eye on China — Myanmar’s biggest trading partner — as the most likely outside catalyst for change.But China, India and Russia do not seem prepared to go beyond words in their dealings with the junta, ruling out sanctions as they jostle for a chance to get at Myanmar’s bountiful and largely untapped natural resources, especially its oil and gas. – Yahoo
