Beijing Olympics to renew scrutiny on China's human rights abuses, international violations

As the Beijing Olympics kick off this month, the games are likely to shine a fresh light on the Chinese communist regime’s human rights abuses at home, as well as its violations of international law and freedoms abroad, with critics warning of the dangers of letting the regime off the hook.

"When this Beijing Olympics happens, they are planning that this will be them showing the world that they are the new superpower of the world, and you mark my words, after this Olympics if everything goes smooth, they’re going to take Taiwan. And when they take Taiwan, it’s over," former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley said recently on "The Glenn Beck Program."

Haley, who has been sounding the alarm about the growing threat from Beijing for years, was referring to increased Chinese aggression toward Taiwan, an independent territory that China claims sovereignty over. China has been sending warplanes and using increasingly bullish rhetoric, leading to fears that it will invade. 

Recently, the Chinese ambassador to the U.S. warned of a "military conflict" with the U.S. if Taiwan forged forward with independence and was backed by the U.S.

As the media and sports worlds rush into Beijing for the Olympics, it remains to be seen to what extent China’s aggression and human rights abuses will form part of the coverage and whether the Olympics will penetrate the iron veil of secrecy Beijing places over its dealings, or if the games will be used as a shield by the regime to deflect that criticism.
