Who knows me well knows how important it considers the sport at the cultural level and also knows that I have always been one who has always said that sports should not be hindered by certain acts of violence (those in the stadiums for example), since sport is loyalty and culture and can not be stopped by the violence of the ignorant, even if it is good to always have in mind what happened to the poor, for example Raciti (I repeat that in prison there is just one more person !) and Sandri (after the RIS and CIS are also extra-terrestrials coming to understand the trajectory of the bullet! absurd, of course!). The situation
of the upcoming Olympics in China is quite different, this is not to stop the football league Serie A, this is not to start a show that will surely be beautiful (because it is the sport) but inevitably end up on decanting the media praises China, as host country! I want to avoid reading phrases like "perfect organization! China is finally ready for opening to the West "," China is out of his immobility, is now set for a rosy future ", etc..
No, the Olympics are a triumph of sport, culture, fair competition, fair play; the Olympics represent a fair comparison between peoples, are a symbol of freedom of speech but also athletic and human rights, Olympics is more than a run or a jump, a goal or a basket, the Olympics is a great feast to be celebrated just in a country where human rights are respected mentioned earlier!
Well this is not in China, everyone knows it but ignore it! In China there is a totalitarian regime, where there is no possibility of expression, where the tanks go against the people (remember the infamous largest square in the world that is Tiananmen Square?) Armed only pieces of paper which lists your Rights! In China, every family can have only one child (up to two I think) and then if not born a female and a male it becomes fertilizer for the rice fields! (Sorry for the raw image, but this is reality and I want to tell!)
not alone!, These days we are seeing the umpteenth injustice, what is happening in Tibet, namely the armed suppression of a people who claims his identity, which claims the freedom, that wants something that in reality is due, of which perhaps we do not feel the need because we are born free and we never had to think about or want to be! In short at the end of the 50s China seized Tibet, obviously against the will of the Tibetans and the indifference of the rest of the world because in Tibet there is black gold! From there, the lives of Tibetans was very complicated, the Dalai Lama (spiritual, not the governor) was compelled to banish the TV now only send more Chinese programs, the pairs of Tibetans are opposed, have been planned a new set of routes between China and Tibet to promote maximum employment in the country by the masses of Chinese people! All of this in recent years has been even more pressing, as in China to be contaminated not only the atmosphere but also the Yangtze (obviously polluted along the way by the Chinese themselves), the largest river in China that guarantees (at least until now) growing by 70% for rice, 50% of wheat and where you can fish 70% of Chinese fish , what does this have with the will of occupation of Tibet? Well besides the Yangtze all the other major rivers flowing through the Himalayas and China come across the Tibetan plateau, Tibet is in practice for China a huge reservoir of water, even the water reservoir! This explains everything!
So if the great powers of the world if they give a damn highly of it in the name of the business, in the name of God, Money, Sport can not do it! Can not do it! Can not do it! The sport should consider this situation, can not give the pinnacle of his being in a nation where human rights are not, that same man that makes big, romantic and memorable sporting gesture! Even the Olympics is a business and a matter of money, but the sport, sportsmen, we all can not turn the pages of the newspaper, we can not change the channel, we can not sigh and shrug! It's not fair!
The Olympics do not know what to do! He says a romantic sport, sport and in conjunction with music, books and the news is expression of the people, is the unity of the people must stop, because that nation in all this would not be represented!!
In this last sentence I put in more than a concept, in fact I said "in that nation!" Already because I do not want the sacrifice of thousands of years of athletes should be nullified, in place of the Olympic events that you should play in summer in China is certainly possible to organize meetings and tournaments in different cities around the world compete in races in which, of course all the media would have less drama, there would be less a matter of money but it would certainly achievable! In addition, a true athlete's chance of Olympic medal if you play in a corn field, regardless of the presence of thousands of journalists and hundreds and hundreds of television stations! Of course, sponsors would disagree but that is another matter, indeed, the usual ....!
not live the Olympics in China, the Olympics also live in wheat fields, live Sport, human rights alive, long live the Free Tibet!
pen Delphi!
