The government should govern the laws of business and the right of the product, Eda. But, Eda could do something to bless this hole world. Let the guy play where ever he chooses.

That's a different story altogether. The reason we can't deal with the Iranians is actually a state sponsorship of terrorism thing. If it was the same situation in China, we wouldn't have half the cheaply manufactured crap that we have today because we wouldn't be allowed business dealings with them, either. Without going into too much detail, I have mixed feelings about the Chinese Olympics, but you're clearly right about massive human rights violations. If we're going to be fair with these things, we really should be doing something about that.

Why mix sports and politics. If the state department really gave a damn about right and wrong, we never should have sent our Olympic team to one of the biggest human rights violators in the world, China. This is disgusting.
