滕彪:2008年,国际影星Mia Farrow称北京奥运为 "种族灭绝奥运会",因为中共政权是达尔富尔屠杀的帮凶。“种族灭绝”一词,将完全适用于2022年的北京奥运。自2017年以来,已有100至300万维吾尔和哈萨克人被关进集中营,这是中共的邪恶计划。link

评论 | 滕彪:北京的奥运会与种族灭绝
我们告诉世人: “你们看到的鲜花、微笑与繁华,正是建立在冤屈、泪水、囚禁、酷刑和鲜血的基础之上的。”
“To attend #Beijing2022 Olympics can be seen as an endorsement of #genocide and crimes against humanity,” says Teng Biao. A refusal to attend, experts say, would send a strong message to the Chinese govt that abuses must cease.
