The Olympics were a big deal for our East Germans comrades back in the day.

OLYMPICS; Coaches Concede That Steroids Fueled East Germany's Success in Swimming

The stunning domination of international swimming by East German women for nearly two decades was built upon an organized system of anabolic-steroid use, a group of 20 former East German coaches confirmed yesterday.

Their admission, provided to reporters in Bonn, is the latest evidence -- and some of the most convincing -- that senior sports administrators of the now-dissolved Communist state made performance-enhancing drugs a critical part of the training programs for the country's elite athletes.

"We confirm that anabolic steroids were used in former East German swimming," the coaches said in a signed statement. "Not all of us were involved in doping. The extent varied." A Golden Period

Whatever degree to which the drugs were used, the admission of the coaches covers a golden period -- from the late 1960's to the late 1980's -- in which East German Olympic champions and world-record holders like Kornelia Ender, Petra Schneider, Ute Geweniger, Barbara Krause and Ulrike Richter won nearly every time they competed.

I am glad to see a number of people working to disrupt the 2010 games. These games are very destructive to the local working class community and should be brought to an end.
