One should not call someone who simply states the reality of things "a propagandist." We live in a real world and believe or not, the 2008 Olympic games being hosted in China is just that, Genocide Games. Whether you believe this is just propaganda or some devious global conspiracy to hurt Chinese economy, there is no denial that Chinese money, from the sale of arms and weapons to the Sudanese government, are being used in this Olympics. This blood money has the souls of thousands from Sudan's Darfur screaming for justice, a fair chance at life.
China has been sleeping in the same bed with a blood-lusty enemy for convenience. Sudan's government has very valuable arms deals with China, and with hopes for dominating the global market, China has set its eyes on African continent and sees the continent as nothing just "profits awaiting reaping." This lack of remorse, concern for the lives in the region and the lack of will or the lack of action in order to work with the United Nations to curb the violence in Darfur and to work toward a justifiable solution has specifically exemplified just how much China cares for these lives. The Chinese government has used the veto power in the security council to stop and cripple the UN from taking an effective action towards the Darfur region.
Still unconvinced that China has more effect on Darfur region conflict that we give it credit for? China is Sudan's sole largest trading partner ranging from Military hardware and weapons to consumer good (soft industry) and China is invested with more economic power than any country in the world - with regards to Sudan. If China simple takes the simple step of simply asking the Sudanese government to put an end to the problem or to allow the UN peace keepers in WITHOUT the red tape, then Sudan will strive to do just take. There is a saying "Hit them where it hurts" and right now, China controls Sudan's "purse" so China has more say in the conflict that it admits to the international community.
Still want some more reason? Well here are some humanitarian and environmental reasons why 2008 Olympics run on Blood Money and deserves to be called Genocide games and should be boycotted. A human right writer, Demetrius Klitou, has listed the following ten reasons for boycotting Beijing Olympics 2008:
1) Human rights are practically non-existent in Communist China
Religious persecution, imprisonment and murder of non-violent political dissidents, torture, organ harvesting and sentences to hard labour
