| For months before, no one said anything. Then some Tibetans protested and then all of a sudden everything exploded. The whole "grab the torch" was openly encouraged by the media, they made it into a game.
There are racial undertones, just looked at the way it is being reported in the media. Why pick on China? Why is it only countires with a history of colonialism making such a fuss? And why just before the Olympics? People dont want China to have a successful Olympics. Neo-colonialism.
But yeah, China has handled the situation very poorly! Amateurs when it comes to the PR game.
