Default China Cheats In The Olympics. Update:

China Uses Underage Gymnists In Olympics. Will The Olympic Comitte Do Anything?

Age Of China's Gold-Medal Gymnasts Questioned : NPR


EXHIBIT A: A China Daily article dated May 23, 2008 titled "Uneven-bars queen the new star in town" about He Kexin. This is the cached version (thanks Google) of the article as seen on August 4, 2008. Uneven-bars queen the new star in town



EXHIBIT B: The same China Daily article dated May 23, 2008 titled "Uneven-bars queen the new star in town" about He Kexin. This is the version currently available online. http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/olympic...nt_6707927.htm As you can see, when compared to EXHIBIT A, everything is identical. Except for one little thing. The state-run newspaper has changed He's age.



EXHIBIT C: A Chinese article written by state-run news agency Xinhua in 2007, and discovered China Digital Times Another Olympic Secret? How Old is He Kexin (???), Really? by the great China Digital Times China Digital Times that refers to He Kexin as 13 years old. And though I wasn't a math major, if she was 13 in 2007, then she's 14 this year. Here is an image of the article with a translation from CDT beneath it.



Translation: The thirteen-year-old He Kexin, from Wuhan, met opponent Yang Yilin, who is on the National Team. Amid cheers from her hometown audience, the young girl excellently executed the full set of moves in the finals, and just beat out Yang Yilin, who already had high scores. Lu Shanzhen, the General Coach of the National Gymastic team, also applauded her performance.

EXHIBIT D: An official gymnastics roster dated January 27, 2006 published by the Chengdu government for its City Games, a competition in which He competed. ³É¶¼ÊÐÌåÓý¾Ö As you'll see from the translated version I have provided, He Kexin's date of birth, according to these government documents, is January 1, 1994.



EXHIBIT E: A Xinhua (Chinese state media) article from November 3, 2007 stating clearly that "The Wuhan Team's 13-year-old He Kexin faced off against the National Teams' Yang Yilin in women's parallel bars." Once again, 13 in 2007, 14 in 2008. ÒÑɾ³ý»ò¹ýÆÚµÄ¸å¼þ



EXHIBIT F: Missing baby teeth?



A Visit to the Athletes Village to See the (Perhaps Underage) Chinese Gymnasts - 2008 Olympics ? Sports and News from China ? The New York Times

These people strip the rights away from its citizens and torture them for world reconition in sporting events. And liberals think they will follow our "Green" example if we could only show them the way? Funny! I just goes to show you that China will cheat in any way that benifits them. So go ahead America. Stop drilling for oil as the countries that hate us take over all of the worlds oil fields. And see how fast we get destroyed! The Chinese dont care about the means from which they can credit there accomplishments. As long as it benifits "for the greater good" in this socialist nation!

I am still trying to figure out why China got the olympics.
As for the underage kids, no, nothing will be done about it. How can anbody prove the kids ages? But even if there is a way, forget it, it's China & they own everybody.

Did you read the 1st post in this thread? Is that not enough proof? What else could you want? A fake chinese birth cirtificait? Both the people who make their Passports and fund there training are the same. They are both state owned! Got to love that communism!

Nothing they do surprises me anymore. They are a bunch of sick freaks who will do anything to stay on top of the medal tally.
