101 East - China and the Olympics - 7 August 08 - Part 2

China is pulling out all stops as its capital takes to the world stage as host of the 2008 Olympic games. Since winning the bid seven years ago, Beijing has undergone a construction boom, making this Olympics the world's most expensive games ever, at a cost of $43 billion. This week on 101 East we ask, what does hosting the 2008 Olympics mean for China and its people?

Chinesse people are smart people seriously. The West is the one society thats brainwashed by propaganda media funded from their government. Example 9/11 Patriostim.

September 11th was a terrorist attack where thousands of innocent people died. Hmm, let's see where people in CHina are brainwashed by their government's propaganda: The June 4th Massacre, Falun Gong, human rights, labor laws, corruption.

Listen chinoculiado do the world a favor and kill yourself. Racists, bigots and morons can be easily influenced by comments made by people like you, but smart people who know whats best for the world know that you are nothing but a hypocrite and failure of a human being.

You sound like a racist what happened to Hu's Olympic message of the need for mutual co-operation, understanding and tolerance. No, Western media have arguably THE most fair and balanced journalistic practises. At least it's better than a fucking media controlled by the government, EHH???? Oh but then again what would you know propaganda, jack shit.

The Day Iran drop out the Nuclear program and there is no WMD in Iran and weak to defend themselves, Israel by the help of France invade Iran just Iraq. Nicolas Sarkozy is making underground terrorism in China to stop China progress. Investigate it.
