Look, China ain't the one invading other countries on false pretext.


I'm sure the Tibetans would agree with you.

China ain't the one who sent Bhuto back to Pakistan (GW Bush and Condi
Rice are responsible for that mess.)


Because Bhutto was a child who could not make decisions for herself, eh?

Why don't you go back to looking for space rock and leave SCC alone?


Because the People's Non-Republic of China continues to abuse its citizen's
rights in ways that makes the Bush Administration look like rank amateurs.

Most folks here ain't even Chinese, given the fact it is an English
language group.


Most folks in the world aren't Chinese.

You can be assured the CCP will not lose control in China. They got
the guns, and the power. We have seen it on 6/4/1989, in what we
called the Tianenmen Massacre.


Gee, isn't that just "more CIA brainwashed yanks spewing anti_China
propaganda"?

Maybe we should call it "totalitarian democracy". Their leaders are
certainly doing their jobs better than ours.


If your leaders are doing a poor job, then come to the United States, whose
leaders continue to do a great job.

You are talking about America, of course. They don't flip burgers in
China. They cook rice with modern rice cookers.


Made in Taiwan, of course.

It's a fact, the CCP will not lose control in China for a long time.

I am in the United States and have voted for the last 48 years.

Have you seen the "Made in Taiwan" label lately? Almost everything is
"Made in China" today.

Stephen Spielberg, the celebrated director of numerous
Hollywood blockbusters, is the 'artistic director' for the
upcoming Olympics in Beijing this August. Not unlike
the roal played by the film maker Leni Riefenstahl
in the '36 Berlin Olympics.

His job is to do nothing less than help ...legitimize.. the
largest and most repressive government in the history
of the human race. He is working hand-in-hand with
the Chinese Communist Party to help continue the
indefinite enslavement of a FIFTH of the human race.

China today is a combination of searing political
repression, with a market system that practices the
most corrupt and abusive form of capitalism imaginable.
Without democratic checks and balances, China's free
market is only free for those in power and money.

A grand party, a champagne event, where over a
billion people are herded, sheep-like, passed banners
reading "One World One Dream" and into a stadium
with no exits. Just work until they die.

Even Orwell would blush at the spectacle.

What would we think of famous producers of the past if
they'd been an key part of Hitler's Berlin Olympics of '36?
If, say, Frank Capra had spent months working
with the Nazis in '36 Berlin, would we now remember
him for all his great movies?

No, he would be remembered only as the Hollywood
director that helped Hitler. Pleading that working
the Olympics gave him influence with the policies
of Hitler would fall on deaf ears, just as it will
with Spielberg and his failed efforts with Darfur.

Stephen Spielberg is about to make such a timeless
mistake.

Legitimizing the Chinese Communist Party is nothing
less than a crime against humanity.

Stephen Spielberg is ...right now....substantially
contributing to the greatest crime against humanity
since the holocaust.

This will be his legacy and professional epitaph.
We should make sure of this.

That changes Mr Hendrik's point, not at all. Thank you for your

Why don't study the history of Tibet and see how independent Tibet
was. It is only in the minds of Americans encouraged by the CIA to
create chaos and dissension for China.

The Dalai Lama is nothing but a world beggar today suppported by the
American CIA.

Who encouraged YOU to go to California and Arizona and occupy "Mexican
land"? Did you ask the Mexican government if you can live there?

Mexico took the land from the Native Americans. The U.S. liberated the
inhabitants from their "serfdom".

Oh, and the others weren't
sovereign
nations, as Tibet was, before China committed an act of aggression
upon it.


Why don't study the history of Tibet and see how independent Tibet
was. *


In 821, China and Tibet ended almost 200 years of fighting with a
treaty engraved on three stone pillars, one of which still stands in
front of the Jokhang cathedral in Lhasa.

The treaty reads in part: Both Tibet and China shall keep the country
and frontiers of which they are now possessed. The whole region to the
East of that being the country of Great China and the whole region to
the West being assuredly the country of Great Tibet, from either side
there shall be no hostile invasion, and no seizure of territory... and
in order that this agreement establishing a great era when Tibetans
shall be happy in Tibet and Chinese shall be happy in China shall
never be changed, the Three Jewels, the body of Saints, the sun and
the moon, planets and stars have been invoked as witness.

The three stone pillars were erected, one outside the Chinese
Emperor's palace, one on the border between the two countries, and one
in Lhasa.

China brought a billion Chinese back from misery & destitution. It has
regained the pride that Great Nation fully deserved; Pride lost in the
past Boxer Wars, Opium Wars & 2nd WW invasion


Hitler also brought the German people prosperity.


A more apt comparison with the 1936 Olympics would be America's
hosting of 2007 Junior Olympics.


What a typically moronic, rabid US-hating statement. You give the left
a bad name.

Your hypocrisy stinks. Why don't you go back to stalking Canadian
politicians?

Most folks here ain't even Chinese, given the fact it is an English

Stop lying. There are plenty of Chinese here. This kind of dishonesty
permeates almost every argument you make here, and you don't do your
causes a bit of good with that kind of behavior.


But it was short-lived, as dictatorships have this
horrible habit of starting wars and going down
in a blaze of misery.


A rigid control structure combined with a changing
evolving populace guarantees the two camps drift apart
over time, building internal stress, with conflct and
wars inevitable.


In a democracy the two camps evolve towards
each other over time, just the opposite.


The only question becomes when will the CCP fall.
Sooner is always better than later.


The Olympics provide the ideal conditions to put
an end to the CCP, as the entire country and world
will be connected together at once. These are the first
true internet games, where everything is online.


Something will happen during the Olympics, and
it won't be covered up or contained. We could
easily see a dozen Tianenman Square size
protests emerge at once.

There is only room for One Dream in this big world? Let me guess, it
is the Communists' one dream?



Yes
