Its worth saying the following.

The Olympics, despite being smothered by large corporations exploiting it for profit, still remains an object lesson in unity and how nations can co-exist without ethnic divisions. This fact is indivisible and a powerful statement in and of itself.

So its worth keeping that in mind when protesting. Any protest should append to that message of unity and cooperation.

But obviously the Olympics is also a place where the habitually corrupt and deviant, along with the criminally insane, invest lots of time and energy manufacturing good PR. So protest needs to keep that in mind too.

Obviously, in the juvenile world of the Daily Mail and the Murdoch press, they too are using the Olympics to sell newspapers. As usual, they are deliberately offensive as that's the only sales pitch they have remaining in their failed business theatres.

The truth is the Olympics is an event. And events these days take place like everything else in an environment of decline and desperation. That's the result of proscription and racial hatred, the majority of which has been brought about by our own governments.

Protest at the Olympics, is simply a product of government policy. Protest needs to keep that in mind and should append and consolidate what the Olympics stand for, while teasing out the fact that the Olympics is always, like every event, up for being hijacked by the criminals of this world.

Dow Chemical Company is a main sponsor of the London Olympics. These are the people who killed almost 15,000 at Bhopal and caused another half a million injuries from chemical poisoning of a civilian area.

They have never accepted the consequences of what they have done instead choosing to squander the compensation money for the people of Bhopal on publicity campaigns and 'do-gooderism'. By taking up Dow Chemical Company as a sponsor, the Olympic authority have voluntarily 'controversialised' the Olympics and ensured that protests will take place.

Its part of the initial planning.

So when reading the drivel that passes for journalism in the modern British press, understand please that the event itself is laden with controversy which has been planned for very carefully and very astutely.

As a result, and because 'this is england' we will have to expect a lot of groups ready to act to steer protest away and into areas the british media and government find comfortable to deal with.

The world is watching!

The Olympics pit nation against nation and contribute significantly to nationalist pride hence the enthusiasm with which politicians endorse it. It is not all lovely and benign just because people of different colours are taking part. Yes lets have an Olympics but without nations being represented. Once you start to think about it there is no sporting reason for nations to be represented.

"The Olympics pit nation against nation and contribute significantly to nationalist pride hence the enthusiasm with which politicians endorse it.

I understand what you're saying of course, competition is not the best way to illustrate cooperation between nations. Its just a very good way to differentiate along lines of nationalist pride, which you're right, elicits the interest of government.

My point is that it is an event and whatever you feel about it, it is a peaceful event. Now obviously, that might change, if you see the way international affairs are going there is clearly manoeuvring going on as different groups prepare for the likelihood that these games will be marred by violence. If they are marred, various groups will be in position and ready to run with the predictable public reaction.

Almost as though the political classes are on their starting blocks ready for the starter gun.

Its important that we as protesters keep everything in mind. Protesting by appending our causes onto the Olympics and what they are currently understood to stand for is a good idea.

I hope nothing happens, but I also see some specific manoeuvring going on with some groups that have a lot to gain if violence occurs.

If the Olympics becomes associated with violence, you'll be very surprised at how simple the world will suddenly become. We go from here, immediately into brazen nationalism. And that will have a big effect on the rest of the world.

Peace.
