On April, 11th, the Olympic flame is arriving at our country, sponsored by Coca Cola. But... How are we gonna receive it?
The Olympic Games are going to take place in a country which doesn't respect the Human Rights (China)and whose form of government is clearly opposite to the sort of democracy the International Community is so concerned in defending and promoting.
But the most outstanding issue is that these celebrations are sponsored by one the biggest companies in the world which is, for sure, against communism and all kinds of "mixed-system" economies as the Chinese model.
The question is, then: Why are they together? What does Coca Cole pursue? We're sure that, whatever it is, it can't be good.
And so...
Are we going to remain silent, hypocritically accepting the "conspiracy" that The Coca Cola Company and the Chinese State are leading? or, are we going to stand up for the Human Rights, and protest against it, as London did this week?
We still don't get the origin (or worse, the aims) of this awkward couple, although we are fully aware that it pursues no Humanitarian goals.
Should we be on guard?

( I'm afraid it all happened in Paris this week.
this is an extra comment, not related to HW
Anyway, I wanted to say the following.......... )
If we compare contemporary situation in China with '78 World Cup in Argentina, it's all the same rubbish
Their objective is to conceal what is actually happening. They are hiding their outrage to human rights as is has been done here with the military government.
forgot to add, previous commentator was Ezequiel
