Behind the anti-China Olympics campaign

This topic has been un-sticky by Davex at 1-8-2008 06:33.
a couple of things that is wrong in the article.  The Natinal Endowment for Democracy is a private (non goverment agency), it is not a governemt agency.  George Soros is pushing his agenda in the USA as well, and only 15% of people like his ways, most dont, even those that lean to the 'left'.

As a westerner, we get use to and see through the media bias.  Sorry but the government has no control over that.

Good luck with the olympics.   The olpympics are a time for us to lay down our differences so that we can come together to enjoy sport.

Hi everyone.
     While it is very true that Western media puts spin and bias in almost everything they say, it is also true that China's officials (mind you, not the Chinese people) are violating an absurd amount of human rights. Obviously China isn't the only country violating human rights,every country in the world. I currently live in the United States, and I have the same sentiments towards the Iraq war.
    On a side note, I read a comment comparing the death penalty in the United States and the deaths in China caused by the human rights violations. Just note that I'm agianst the death penalty, but comparing these two is utterly absurd. The death penalty is for those who have done atrocious crimes, not ordinary citizens.
    However, the only way to look at this without putting a huge bias, is to look at the facts and to disassociate yourself from whatever country you hail from. Nationalism seems to be the culprit on both ends of this problem.
    For those that say the Olympics is only a sporting and questioning its connection to politics, they are either naive or hoping for some sort of Utopia. Unfortanately, politics is in the essence of the Olympics. Nations compete against each other to hold the dominant card of whatever event, therefore the location is extremely important. Why do you think they take such a long time choosing where to host them?  It is a politically driven event, even if that is for the worse. Even China acknowledged that they were holding games for political reasons. China is becoming a world power, and to show this they made the symbolic torch travel the longest distance ever, even going through the Tibetan mountains (the Hymalayas on the Tibetan side). I'm sure they thought greatly of the symbolism of this: control of tibet and rising to the world power.
     For those that bothered reading this post: Thank you so much for not succumbing to the blind patriotism of any countries and thank you for having your own mind, whether you agree or disagree with me. Just keep in mind that you cannot take all your information from other people and use their perspectives, you must formulate your own.

They are afraid of China empire, which has no fact bases at all.
In the minds of my American teachers, China is a threatening country, especially in economy.
American newspaper even use "Chinese dragon arise" as the headline to describe the rapid economy development in China. By the way, dragon in English is kind of a evil thing. Please use "loong" instead of "dragon" when translating.

The KL Leg of Torch Relay

Today the torch reaches KL, I read with interest the news posted in CNN.com after only less than 2 hours the relay started. The first headline was about chinese student and the protestor.  But mind you, there are only initially 3 persons showing tibet flag, yet it became the headline news of cnn.com.  The presence of so many thousands of other supporter are  invisible.  You can see that the cnn.com reporters are so happy when they see some pro tibetan fellow appear. WHAT KIND OF ROTTEN STANDARD are these "reporters" of cnn. Then the story highlight of cnn. : Chinese students outnumber pro-Tibet students during latest Olympic torch relay.  I look thru' all the news reported, but can't find a pro-tibet student, except a japanese family and a japanese kid.  How can we don't support anti-cnn ?

Caught In The Act

Oh dear, one can't say, that the US doesn't have enough problems for themselves. Going out for war to steal other humans oil in the middle east costs plenty of money. So what does the US government when they have lot's of financial problems at home? All the cats know what these humans do when they have financial problems at home. They try to start a new war abroad and rob the purse. Since China loaned the US planty of money they found no better target to attck than China. Heck, what a great idea, not only to steal the purse but also get rid of all the debts by conquering the creditor!

But, there was a little problem with China. Since China is not Iraq or Yugoslavia, they just couldn't bring democracy the way they are used to. So the tank thinkers thought to use plan B to conquer China. Plan B was named "divide and conquer" and the order was to be executed by the National Endowment for Democracy NED. The NED called CIA agent Dalai Lama, prepared all the CIA media and put covert CIA organisations like Reporter Without Borders and it's sister Human Rights Watch as gunboats on track.

The first part of the plan went like they thought. On the order of the peaceful CIA agent Dalai Lama stupid people in Tibet made a great deal of vandalism in front of Olympic games, the propaganda outlet Radio Free Asia delivered the fairy tale of Tibets peoples fight for democracy to the top of the news in whole world and the whole world believed it to be as true as the moon landings of 1969.

But then went something wrong. Just as Nancy Pelosi was to bring new instructions to the Dalai Lama, nice Chinese cats caught them in the act:

Riot in Tibet: True face of western media

Wow! Now the whole world can see the whole CIA PSYOP network to be exposed naked and the CIAs covert gunboats Reporters Without Borders and Human Right Watch may sink for the shame of their dirty lies.

Chinese cats were even so friendly to open a forum in Beijing, where all humans can discuss about the lies of CIAs News Network (CNN): Anti-CNN.com. ;-)

Buddhism vs the Yellow Emperor

Grace Wang's reply in the Washington Post on Sunday was very well written. I have frankly been amazed at the reaction to the unrest in Tibet by Chinese in China and abroad.  Despite modernizations, a more open press, the Internet, etc. the world-view of the average Chinese citizen appears to be still stuck somewhere in the 1950s.  And then there are the students in the US, at Duke for example.  The sight of Chinese studying in the West and using the freedoms they enjoy in the West to attack Tibetans for wanting the same freedoms is nothing short of breathtaking.  The same is ironically true for the use (or misuse) of the Internet by Chinese, something which could have never been invented in China, to attack those who understand the true nature of what China is doing in Tibet. Then there is the more or less complete misunderstanding of Tibet and the Dalai Lama among Chinese, even those who have lived and studied in the West but continue to believe government propaganda.  If you think the Dalai Lama is a threat to China, to split China, etc. etc. then you are either incredibly naive, or wilfully ignorant.  And the Western media has nothing to do with it. Go read a book or two on how China has brought "progress" to Tibet. And make sure it is not printed in Beijing.  After you have read several books on the topic, think again about the protests. Do you think people are angry in Tibet for no reason? Do you think they are just trying to disrupt the Olympics for the fun of it? Do you think it could possibly have something to do with 40 years of repression? Of denial of religious freedom? Of denial of TIbetan culture? Of repeated demands of Tibetan Buddhist monks to denounce the Dalai Lama?  Of the arrival in Tibet of hundreds of thousands of Han Chinese, who just happen not to be Buddhists? Do you think it could have something to do with the destruction of sacred monasteries, texts, and religious objects over a period extending from the Cultural Revolution? Despite all the unbiased evidence concerning the true nature of China's rule in Tibet, about the ridiculousness of historical claims to Tibet, that Chinese educated or otherwise can continue to have such a distorted view of Tibet is testament to the power of propaganda.  It also shows that China is not ready to join the international community, because of its immaturity in dealing with situations such as TIbet, Xinjiang, and Taiwan.  Of course the Olympics are political, how can Chinese say on the one hand the Olympics is about China coming of age (political), great power, etc. etc.  and on the other say it should be about sports only? This again shows a level of immaturity when it comes to understanding how the world works. Instead, Chinese, like little children, stamp their feet in anger and point fingers at CNN and other western media sources, as if they are the problem and not 40 years of failed policies in Tibet and other human rights violations....it really is astounding at one level, but quite understandable at another....guess what: Tibetans don't believe in the Yellow Emperor, get it?

BOYCOTT USA & French goods and businesses. This should give them a tremendous humbling experience! The olympic happenings and distruptions have shown the true ugly face of western society, hypocrisy and racism which all this while have been hidden under the so called 'human rights'. No western country should think they are superior to eastern culture and society. Lest they forget...Chinese civilization has spanned 4000 years; much much longer than the west's sop called civilization. Western civilization is not true civilization...it's actually barbarianism, greed and savagery in disguise. A very debased society I would say. Greedy land grabs, wars and colonialism...these are what they practise.
