In light of the Chinese Communist Party’s ongoing genocide and record of other human rights abuses, U.S. officials will engage in a so-called “diplomatic boycott” of the Beijing Olympic Games in February. That action is at once a confirmation of our nation’s treaty obligation to punish the Chinese government for its genocidal conduct, and a pathetically inadequate fulfillment of that duty.

The Chinese Communists have responded with appropriate contempt, noting that our officials weren’t invited and no one cares if they come. What does matter is that, as of now, U.S. athletes, support staff and corporate sponsors will still be legitimating the regime perpetrating such crimes against humanity. And emboldening it to believe even worse can be perpetrated with impunity.

In light of what’s at stake, no American should attend, participate in or otherwise support the CCP’s Genocide Games. Not one.
