Fake Fireworks Olympics Ceremony: "Wag The Olympics"Backhttp://zennie2005.blogspot.com/2008/08/fake-fireworks-china-olympics-ceremony.html -- Last Friday's Olympics Opening Ceremony in Beijing Olympics Stadium was without a doubt the greatest event of its kind in the history of the Olympic Games. It was China's "coming out" party, and the organizers $300 million was well-spent. The results showed in China Olympian Li Ning's levitating speed-skater style "walk" around Olympic Stadium and his lighting of a giant torch, which in turn caused what had to be the largest fireworks display in the history of the Olympic Games, if not the World. A spectacle that looked tremendous, and even animated, and that's because it was. The organizers of the event admitted that computer graphics were used to "replace" the actual fireworks images because the fear was that the "haze" -- read: smog -- was so bad that a great camera shot of the pyrotechnics would have not been possible. Still, it was controversial because it took away from the overall historic effort and also took the wind out of the sails of the China Olympics, and sadly. I write that because regardless of that country's problems, we're all fans of the Olympics and want to see it go well. Period. But what was done reminded me of the movie "Wag The Dog". That flick, which starred Robert De Nero and Dustin Hoffman, was about a war that was staged on a television set and never happened at all. With China's actions, we're a massive step closer to that possible occurence. China not only faked the fireworks, but the singer employed in the Opening Ceremony. http://www.int.iol.co.za/index.php?set_id=6&click_id=6&art_id=nw20080813092304750C677298 Seven-year-old Yang Peiyi, "who was deemed not attractive enough to go on stage" according to the article, was replaced by nine-year-old Lin Miaoke. One thing's for sure, that will scar Yang Peiyi for life, the fact that her own China told her she was not attractive enough to be seen singing on the biggest stage in the World, even though they love her voice! Toward Laws Preventing This In The Future I think we need to craft a series of International Laws to prevent or at least discourage (which is the best we can do) the occurence of the use of digital technology in this way. It's far too dangerous a possibility to ignore, especially in the wake of the fake fireworks scandal.

I suppose it is okay to criticize another country because you can find something to criticize, while it is harder for one to find anything to criticize one's country. National security and nationalism is its best protective borders. :)

Hey! Who ever said that what the U.S. government is doing is ok? We know that the U.S. government is doing disgusting and horrible things. The problem is that 'they' are watching. The government over here can now legally listen in on phone conversations, same thing with computers and monitor anyone for any reason they want to admit to. People have already gotten into serious trouble for simply speaking truly about all this. We know we're in trouble if we say or 'do' anything.
