Default Olympic medals have blood jade???

Well, it is no secret that the new Olympic medals have been in laid with Jade. But is it really "blood jade" from the oppressive Burmese Regime?

I don't know, but I think the question needs to be asked. Also, the first day of the Olympics was the 20 year anniversary of the student massacre in Burma.

Is it a fact! If it is, then it is not a good idea to participate in any
Olympic event. It is like wearing a blood diamond from Sierra Lione. I hope that the sports council will look into this matter.

People suffered and died from those precious gems just for you to wear it.
It is a total injustice.
