Spielberg Pulls Out of Olympics, Sides With Sudanese Rebels
Posted on Wed Feb 13, 2008 09:44 AM PDT
Having previously be put on notice by actress/activist Mia Farrow for his involvement as an artistic advisor to China's Olympics (she publicly warned him about becoming the "Leni Riefenstahl" of the Beijing Games), Steven Spielberg has decided to pull out in protest over China's support of the corrupt Sudanese government.
In a statement released yesterday, Spielberg cited the escalating violence in the region for his decision, saying "I find that my conscience will not allow me to continue with business as usual."
Bye, bye, Beijing!

go for it steven!!!
He's saying fuck you what he's thinking damn I wish I thought of the bionic woman.
And he's giving the finger!
Mia Farrow is out of her mind.
After so many years of inaction and indifference by the West, we suddenly want to blame China for Darfur? There are many countries involved, starting with our support of the SPLA and John Garang 10 years ago.
China is simply a scapegoat.
