Olympics nearing…Time for Boycotts and Protests?
Oh yes…the Olympics are nearing. The great world competition of youth competing athletically from all around the world and it dates back to the ancient Greeks and Romans thousands of years ago.
Oh no…the Olympics are nearing. Time for boycotts and protests and grabbing at worldwide attention for a particular cause.
Can’t we just have the games without all the “games”?!?!
Latest updates: The German Chancellor, The British Prime Minister and The Canadian Prime Minister are among the world leaders who will not attend the Olympics opening ceremonies, in part to register protest of China’s human rights record.
Now what? Should our leaders reconsider? Should our country reconsider participating? Should countries with less than stellar human rights records be hosting the Olympics?
So here it comes…boycotts and protests and making poitical points rather than embracing the true spirit of the Olympic Games. That spirit is worldwide cooperation and friendship. We’re missing the point!
