Do We Need To Boycott Beijing?
A question raised by Ahmad Qisa’i, and he also reminds us similar case from the Indonesian Tennis Association who boycotted the Indonesian Fed Cup Tennis Team to play against Israel in Tel Aviv in July 2006:
But, I do not think that we have to boycott the Games. The Games is about sport and sportsmanship, no politics is allowed.
I do sympathize with the Tibetans and give my full support to their cause. But I also want to see the successful celebration of sports in the form of the Olympics. The Games must go on and we have to support the Chinese government’s effort to guarantee its successful organization.
If we have to boycott the Games, we should have done it in the first place when Beijing was chosen as the host of this year’s Olympics. Trying to obstruct the successful organization of the Games now is like a hypocrite who is afraid to say no when the announcement about Beijing was done and now is trying to steal the world’s attention as a show of sympathy towards the Tibetans

@ it is shocking to see how international
Human-rights champions NGOs & Associations
deeply involved in ” Beijing boycott ” whereas
Palestine, Kashmir Iraq, Afghanistan & others only interest them on occasional basis, they are manipulating public, media and the TIBETANS. Most of these NGOs and Assoc. are run
and controled by missionaries or pure Marxists,
both fanatics.
