Beijing 2008 In Lego

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the that's-a-lotta-bricks dept.

jedie noted an impressive rendering of the Beijing Olympics in Lego. Featuring 300,000 bricks, and 4,500 Lego people, it was built by the Hong Kong Lego User Group. Yes that exists. Amazing. I'm pretty sure that the lighting inside the water cube was not made using stock legos. At least, none in my giant cardboard box.

    What you said was completely irrelevant to the topic at hand, but if by "monk" you meant "terrorist who burned up shops and killed people", you'd be right.

    The logic escapes me. If we were really up to a silly operation like this, we'd do it AFTER the Olympics end, not just before they start. Something as nonsensical as that could only be done by George W. Bush.

    Go back to reading your "party approved" propaganda lit. We aren't interesting in the "party line" here.

    Go back to believing the garbage that your "Mainstream Media" spews about China and trying to defend American imperialism as they fuck up the world in the name of "freedom and democracy."

    The American government supports the Free Tibet movement, along with anything anti-China, such as the East Turkestan Liberation Army (which is aligned with Al-Qaeda and sent its fighters to Afghanistan).

    It makes far more sense for the Americans to contract this hit on Lhasa to mess up the Olympics. Why the hell would we create a mess just in time for our own Olympics? Wouldn't it make a ton of sense for the Americans to do it instead?

    The kind of thinking that makes you believe that we staged the attacks is utterly ludicrous, spurred on by the anti-China propaganda spewed by the "Mainstream Media," and completely defies logic and common sense.

    That's several steps up from "Anonymous Coward."

    If you believe the garbage on these web sites, then you should go to Al-Qaeda's web site for some information about the United States.
