2008 Olympics: Propaganda and the Chinese hosts

There is no doubt, that question were been ask when choosing Beijing as host city for the Olympics, first it was a hurdle to jump over, when considering that the organisation will be bringing the modern games into the pages of ancient history, with one fifth of the worlds population totalling 1.3 billion people.

It was a big gamble, to suggest a country steep in dense friction, would have the courage to change their way of thinking, and be a little open-minded to accommodate western freedom and innovations.

Republicans and democratic wants to make this propaganda stitch up, but other nations needs to reassert themselves with the green way of thinking, before kicking down the back door of Beijing.

Expectation is high, there is no getting away from that, locals will be watching with national pride, but the world will be analysing every
