Come on, this is obviously just fear mongering by someone that harbors deep-seeded sentiment against power to the people. (/sarcasm)
The marathon world record-holder said yesterday that he was unlikely to compete at the Beijing Olympics because China’s air pollution would damage his health.
The Ethiopian Haile Gebrselassie, 34, is a favourite for a gold medal this summer but is likely to focus instead on the 10,000 metres because he suffers from asthma.
“The pollution in China is a threat to my health and it would be difficult for me to run 42km in my current condition,” he said. “But I am not pulling out of the Olympics altogether.”
Maybe we could get Greenpeace and all the other enviroweenies out there to hang out in China a little more rather than chasing around cruise ships and harassing Americans.
