Well, at least the Olympic committee is smart enough not to allow the games to be hosted in region like the Caucasus, right? Right? Oh yeah, Sochi... Well, at least we can hope that the Olympic spirit in 2014 will bring peace to the region and a respect for human rights and dignity, much as it has in China.
