Honestly, I think it's because the world hate China and the Chinese. It's sad really.
LA is very polluted but we held the Olympics. Mexico City is very polluted but they held the Olympics.
Dlish, if it's human rights you're worried about, not many countries are immune. Certainly not Dubai. I would take China over Dubai. Dubai is way polluted too. The Tibet issue is for another thread. Australia had some controversy over the aborigines too I remember. Sarajevo is not exactly the model for a modern democracy and human rights haven but they still held the Olympics. Moscow, Seoul, Tokyo, even my beloved US - all these countries have questionable politics and human rights abuses. But none receive the level of criticism, hate, vitriol and invective that China has.
The media has come out guns blazing against China since day 1.
