So, it appears odd to me that Steven Spielberg quit as an adviser to the Chinese Olympics, over Darfur?
He was working for CHINA.
He and he quits as a protest to human rights violations.
In Darfur.
Apparently the ones China themselves commits are OK.
Just thinking.
I think it was bigger than "Human Rights Violations"... I think he resigned because of genocide. China is one of The Sudan's biggest allies and trade partners and they could use political/economic pressure to stop the violence...
It is ironic though... One of the largest human rights abusers and most secret of nations is hosting the MAJOR event on global cooperation and peace... Irony at its best...
