nah, bring politics into it. Sport is pretty much the only thing that unites everybody and so it actually seems like the perfect way of bringing pressure to bear.
Let people boycott the Games. It's akin to having a naughty child - unless they (the Chinese government) see consequences to their bad behaviour, they'll keep doing it.
Like this: I don't care for the way the Chinese trample on civil rights, but they ARE the host country. So let's take the argument elsewhere, outside the Olympic Rings. Let's be buddies, just for a bit.
Bring more politics in. I would love to watch the 100m hurdle between the various heads of state.
Collectively, you make me wonder what would occur if we contrived the Buddy Olympics... 'During the Beerathon, the Chinese and US competitors yielded a warming in international relations over a debate about prawn cocktail crisps. This garnered gold and silver medals respectively. The supportive role of Ireland saw them gather bronze.'
