The torch relay leg of Olympic judo medallist David Douillet ended in chaos, as his flame was extinguished by Chinese organisers before passing it to Teddy Riner, the French judo champion. Then both athletes were abandoned on the podium.

And surprisingly you can't.

I don't know what comment you are refering to.Second i don't know what is "Nam" at the end of words ?Third, we have no french troops in Iraq, it is quite surprising that you make a mistake on that, knowing that it made a big buzz years ago that the french government would follow the UN decision rather than the US.Fourth, why "I dont pull out" ? Well, i got news : i'm not the french govt. Im not sure the situation in Afghanistan is the same as Iraq. The afghan govt agreed on the intervention.

and indeed it is.

There is a lesson for all Xizang ethnic minorities (formerly called Tibetans) that 99.999% of the world's people believes that Xizang is a part of China. The 2008 Beijing Olympics Games has been very, very successful and the Best in History. It made many billions of people in this world Happy. On the other hand, all those people who tried to dirupt the Beijing Olympics had been Unsuccessful and many are feeling ashamed about their cowardly actions now.

Be careful not to stick your little fingers in your keyboard while you're trying to propagate hatred and bigotry. I'm at peace, I wish you the same.

Really? Then you are in contrast a handsome, smart, and a civilized white diseased barbarian.I think 99.9% would disagree with at least both of the above, though for 'diseased' and 'barbarian' there would be 100.0% consensus (of course any freak changes to the statistics of this axiom would be your fellow ugly diseased white barbarians).
