Olympic Committee Tells World To Piss Off. NO Torch Run!
BBC: International torch relays ahead of the Olympics have been scrapped by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
It follows the controversy that surrounded the Beijing Olympic relay which was dogged by protests as the torch made its way around the world.
The 2008 relay’s London leg was hit by several incidents and criticism over China’s ‘torch police’ security staff.
Organisers of the 2012 London Olympics have already said they had no plans to take the torch outside Britain.
We’ve won the right to host this international game now the world can fuck off and watch the ceremonies from their television sets. Now this is definitely why we SHOULD NOT spend BILLION$ of public dollars on this useless politcal grandstanding especially if the games no longer “invite” the world to participate in all aspects of the games. Let the Olympics go private. Who cares! The peoples of Darfur, Palistine, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Zimbabwa, Congo… could give a rat’s ass.
