Calls for Olympic boycott after Tibet brutality – Telegraph: “Mr Obama said he was deeply disturbed by reports of a crackdown and arrests, and called on the Chinese government to respect the basic human rights of the people of Tibet.
‘This is the year of the Beijing Olympics. It represents an opportunity for China to show the world what it has accomplished in the last several decades,’ he said. ‘Those accomplishments have been extraordinary and China’s people have a right to be proud of them, but the events in Tibet these last few days unfortunately show a different face of China.’
