A Word Of Wisdom For China-Never Say Never

Seems Sha Zukang could not resist using his position within the United Nations to beat the drums of China's might, stating that Tibetans protesters will NEVER be successful in sabotaging the Beijing Olympic Games of Shame 2008. A word to the wise there Mr. Zukang...never say never.




Sabotage of Olympics "will never succeed"


GOV.cnFriday, April 25, 2008

Peace-loving Chinese and people worldwide had "seen through a tiny minority of people who intended to sabotage the August Beijing Olympics," and the plot to hit the Games would never succeed, Sha Zukang, the United Nations deputy secretary-general, said in Beijing Thursday.


Sha made the statement at the ongoing Forum on Climate Change and Science and Technology Innovation when commenting on recent attacks of Olympic torch relay by "pro-Tibet independence" activists. "These acts have sharpened the eyes of the people both home and abroad."


He said the Games were "really a big matter for both Chinese and world people." The Chinese diplomat added that under the support of the whole nation, he was fully confident the Games would be the best in history.


Sha also criticized some foreign media that insisted China gradually would become the world's top carbon emitter.


"I can't say they are wrong, but I'm sure that they just reported part of the things, or even distorted the facts. The media just say what they want, but whether it's correct or not is another matter."


Sha said there were indeed insufficient areas concerning environmental protection in China but the government had adopted many effective measures that would greatly improve the situation.

China's Over Reaction To Jack Cafferty Continues-Lawyers File Billion Dollar Lawsuit Against CNN

China's insecurity is showing as their over reaction to CNN's truthful comments continues. Seems his goon/thug remarks is seeing them seek ONE DOLLAR for each Chinese citizen's shame at having someone give their nation and honest assessment. There are two very interesting questions. 1) With the known censorship in China, how many of those $1.3 Billion people actually saw/heard Jack Cafferty's remarks in China? 2) More telling, why aren't these attorneys pursueing Jack Cafferty's remarks about the JUNK China produces? Could it be they know his statement is very defensible?

Canberra-Flame of Shame Torch Relay Gets Uglier

It's odd how little coverage the US media is giving to the ongoing littany of Human Rights abuses associated with the Beijing Olympics Flame of Shame Torch Relay as it runs into serious problems at every stop, as storm troopers, military personnel and local police abuse human rights in the name of protecting China's disgraced Torch as it makes its way around the world. Though almost nothing appeared in America's media on this greek tragedy, the Torch Relay's visit to Australia was an abusive one with local police even doing a bit of smack down on China's well deserving torch attendents.

Unruly Retarded Chinese Protesters Burn DUTCH FLAG!


Talk about MORONS! China's irate Lady Boy Netizens in their zeal to strike out at anything and everything in their misplaced Nationlism burned THE DUTCH FLAG! Someone needs to give them a class in proper protesting.

China Draws Line In Sand, Defies Astralia-Australia Should Cancel Torch Relay, BOOT CHINA TORCH TEAM OUT OF COUNTRY

China is getting just a little too big for its breeches, is defying the Australian Government, stating that the bruttish thugs known as the Chinese Torch Attendents would use their bodies (they are trained killers) to defend the torch against Australia's wishes and stated desires. Fine, kick the MOTHER FUCKERS OUT OF THE COUNTRY, cancel the Torch Relay and tell China to go fuck itself. That is not likely to happen, so I would suggest that the Pro Tibetan Protesters that will be out in force tomorrow be prepared to use OVERWHELMING FORCE if they intend on making and atttempt o extinguish the Torch of Shame. It will be hard for the Lady Boys in Blue Suits to defend the torch if they are laying face down on the ground restrained for 100 or more protesters. Simply stated, like it or not, you have to meet force with force, fight fire with fire.

CHINA'S ambassador to Australia has defied Prime Minister Kevin Rudd by declaring that Chinese attendants travelling with the Olympic torch will "use their bodies" to protect it.

On the eve of the torch's arrival in Canberra from Jakarta this morning, Zhang Junsai made it clear that the blue-tracksuit-wearing attendants would become involved physically if anyone tried to extinguish the flame.

"Their role is to make sure that the flame will not go out," he told the Nine Network. "Was the flame attacked, I believe they will use their bodies to hold this, not to let flame go out."

His statement contradicts repeated assertions by Mr Rudd that the Chinese attendants would have no security role in tomorrow's Australian leg of the torch relay.

China Needs To Pull Stick Out of Its Ass, and Keep Its Nose Out of USA and France Governmental Decision

China is whining like a spoiled child, expressing it's anger that the USA welcomed the Dalai Lama and that France made this reknowned and blessed spiritual leader a Honorary Citizen of France. Who cares? China needs to learn that the world can very easily SHUN THEM for their child like antics, their political temper tantrum on the world stage. If the IOC had any backbone what so ever, the time has come to CANCEL the 2008 Beijing Olympic Shame Games, as China has shown its true colors, shown the world they cannot be trusted, that they are not ready to be a major player on the world stage.

China condemns Paris honor to Dalai Lama


BEIJING (Reuters) - China condemned on Tuesday Paris's decision to make the Dalai Lama an honorary citizen, warning that the gesture had damaged ties with France just as both nations were seeking to ease bad blood over protests.


Relations between France and China were strained by Tibet protests that disrupted the passage of the Beijing Olympic Games torch through Paris earlier this month.


Angry Chinese citizens have responded by urging boycotts of French goods and companies, especially the retailer Carrefour.


Rally precedes Olympic torch run in Indonesia









JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — Torch bearers ran laps with the Olympic flame in front of an invitation-only crowd Tuesday after Indonesia barred the public from witnessing the relay at a stadium amid pressure from China.

Police arrested several demonstrators rallying outside the gates and seized Tibetan flags and banners in a further stain to a global run that Beijing had hoped would drum up support for the August Games.


Criticism of China's human rights record has turned this year's event into one of the most contentious in recent history. Protests against the government's deadly crackdown on rioters in Tibet has dogged stops in Greece, Paris, London and San Francisco.


Many countries across Asia responded by sharply modifying routes and boosting security, with water cannons and 3,000 police officers deployed in the Indonesian capital Tuesday. A handful of torch bearers — most recently in Australia and South Korea — have also announced plans to boycott the relay.


The staged event in Jakarta was not televised live, apparently because no station was prepared to pay for the rights.










US Undersecretary of State meets with Dalai Lama
Adjust font size: ZoomIn ZoomOut




US Undersecretary of State Paula Dobriansky met with the Dalai Lama in US Monday despite China's calls on the US for no-support for any separatist activities staged by the Dalai clique.


There is no news conference or news release following the 30-minute meeting, said a US media relations officer.


The Chinese foreign ministry has repeatedly said it is firmly opposed to the Dalai Lama visiting any country in any identity to engage in secessionist activities, and is opposed to any country having any official contacts with the Dalai Lama. The Lhasa riots on March 14 again revealed that the Dalai Lama is not really a religious person, but a political refugee engaged in the activities of splitting China and destroying national unity under the cover of religion and the camouflage of peace, foreign ministry spokesman Qin Gang said last month.


Hundreds of Chinese Americans and Chinese nationals working or studying in the United States gathered in the northeastern state of Michigan Sunday to protest against the crime and violence wire-pulled by the Dalai clique and voiced support for the upcoming Beijing Olympics.


The protest, organized by the Chinese students studying at the University of Michigan and the State University of Michigan, was held outside the Ann Arbor stadium where the Dalai Lama was delivering a speech.


The protesters, from teenagers to the grey-haired, all chanted "One World, One Dream" and "Olympics go," while wielding such slogans as "Politics off Olympics, we want sport" and "We seek peace."


Demonstrations against Tibet separatists' attempts to sabotage China's sovereignty and the forthcoming Beijing Olympics have been held in a series of US cities as the Dalai Lama was touring this North American country.

Jakarta Torch Relay TOTAL DISASTER, More Embarrassment for China and IOC

Jakarta has brought more shame on China as the Beijing Olympics of Shame's Torch Relay yet again is met with protests, and little public interest. To protect the shamed torch, Jakarta police had beefed up security, including high pressure water jets, and moved the torch to a closed, secured by invite only location...the event was POORLY ATTENDED.

Protests begin in Indonesia ahead of Olympic torch run

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Police briefly detained at least eight people and seized flags from pro-Tibet activists Tuesday during a rowdy demonstration against the Olympic torch relay in Indonesia.

Water cannons and 3,000 officers were deployed around the main sports stadium in the bustling capital, Jakarta, where the parade was held before a small, invitation-only crowd, said deputy police chief Herri Wibowo.


Jakarta's governor started the relay, becoming the first of 80 torchbearers to follow a route that circled the stadium five times instead of running through the streets of Jakarta as originally planned.


The Chinese Embassy had insisted the Jakarta relay be shortened and open only to 5,000 invited guests, many of them local school children. The only other country to make the event invite-only so far was Pakistan, which cited security fears.


"I am excited to witness history," said Andrea Putri, 15. "This kind of thing does not happen every day."

Jiang Xiaoyu Calls For Tibetan Statehood In Jakarta

In wished for news, Jiang Xiaoyu executive vice president of the Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2008 Olympic Games (BOCOG), walks out of the cabin with the lantern which holds the Olympic flame at the airport in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, April 22, 2008 and calls on China to GRANT TIBET THEIR FREEDOM. Jiang Yu upon hearing the news peed herself and has gone into seclusion at a nondisclosed location. Nationalist Netizens took to the Internet in droves calling Jian Xiaoyu a traitor to China. Nepal Army troops have been given the order to shoot Jiang Xiaoyu on site. Jacques Rogge of the IOC applauded the announcement, exclaiming the news might be just enough to bring Coke back on board as a sponsor.

China's Butt Buddy Nepal Stoops To New Low, Nepalese Weasels Will Shoot Pro Tibet Protesters During Everest Climb

China's butt buddy, the brown nosing Nepalese Goverment has announced they will shoot any Pro Tibetan Protestors who try to interfere with China's attempt to reach the submit of Mount Everest...let us all pray that God smites down those attempting to take the torch to the submit, let us pray they befall a HORRID ACCIDENT on the face, extinquishing the flame once and for all, burying it at the highest peak in the world...how appropriate. Meanwhile, on a more realistic note, it is suggested that Protesters plan to either A) use overwhelming force of numbers in any attempt to interfere, or B) come armed. People have a right to self defense, and the Nepalese have drawn the line in the sand...they intend to shoot to kill.

Nepal: Everest pro-Tibet protesters may be shot

KATHMANDU, Nepal (CNN) -- Nepal has given its security personnel permission to shoot pro-Tibet demonstrators during China's Olympic flame climb to Mount Everest's summit early next month.

Everest and the Himalayan mountain range seen from the air.

"About 25 soldiers and policemen have established camps on the mountain and they have been ordered to use force if necessary to stop any anti-Chinese activities," Mod Raj Dotel, spokesman for the home ministry, said Sunday. "This could mean shooting if necessary."

Security personnel will also check mountain climbers for non-essential expedition materials, Dotel added.

"If anyone is found with anti-Chinese material their permit will be canceled and returned from the mountain," he said.

Chinese climbers plan to take the Olympic flame to the top of the world's highest peak, at 8,848 meters (29,028 feet) as part of the global relay leading up to the August 8 opening of the Summer Olympics in Beijing.

Spring is the most popular season for climbing Mount Everest, which straddles the border between Nepal and Tibet, an autonomous region of China.

The Nepali government has granted permits to dozens of climbers from 30 expeditions this season.

But between May 1 and May 10, climbers are barred from going above 6,400 meters until the torch run is completed. China plans to take the Olympic flame to the summit sometime then.

Harsh weather conditions allow only about two opportunities in May for a push to the summit.

The Chinese have not allowed any expedition to climb the mountain from the north side, according the Kathmandu representative of the Tibet China Mountaineering Association.

ill Bred Chinese THUGS Attack Peaceful Pro Tibetan Japanese

Showing their ill bred bruttish ways, Chinese students SHIPPED IN by the Chinese Embassy for the Torch Relay of Shame, the world again has seen just how dispicable China really is, just how deserving the world's scorn of the Beijing Olympics and it's Tainted Torch is. How desparate for a positive photo op (Propaganda) is China when they have to pay students to show up, wear Pro China shirts, and attack innocent people of the world? Perhaps it is time that the world's nations consider revoking the Student Visa's of Chinese students, time to ship them back home to their beloved MOTHERLAND.

The Chinese students wore identical shirts with the slogan "One Dream, One Nation," and many of them had Chinese flags painted on their faces, according to witnesses.


An Olympics organizer said the Chinese Embassy arranged for the students to be there. Several of the students told CNN that the Chinese government provided their transportation to the event and gave them the flags and shirts.


Witnesses said the Chinese students overwhelmed a woman wearing a "Free Tibet" shirt and holding a pro-Tibet sign, hitting her with small Chinese flags before she was carried away unhurt by a photographer.



"As soon as spectators saw what she was doing, they immediately mobbed her, hitting her with flags," said Brad Kesler, an American tourist who was there to watch the start of the relay.


Kesler said the woman was holding the sign and not yelling.


At least two other people carrying pro-Tibet signs were carried away by police. It was not clear if they were detained because of a disruption or if they were removed for their own safety.


About 1,500 people attended the relay's start in Independence Square, according to witness estimates. Few of them appeared to be local residents -- a member of the Malaysian Olympics council explained it was a work day. Video Watch the torch arrive in Malaysia »

China Needlessly Endangers Climbers On Mount Everest

In yet another story of GREAT SHAME for China and their lap dog comrades (the Nepalese Army), seems that military thugs, bruts in cahoots with the Chinese regime have put climbers on Mount Everest in grave and perilous danger by taking away their ability to communicate with the outside world. As the tensions from China's brutal raping of the Tibetan people continues, as China tries to shut down protests on the eve of the 2008 Beijing Olympics of Shame, these thugs in the Nepalese Army are aiding and abetting, have tried to shut down news getting out to the Western Media, and as a part of that goal, they have confiscated the laptops of world reknown climbers currently on mountain face. Nepal should also feel GREAT SHAME at their army's unscruplous behavior.

Olympic torch: Mountaineers cut off from world for fear of Tibet protests

Climbers on Everest have been virtually cut off from the outside world after the Nepalese Army confiscated their laptops, cameras and satellite phones to prevent protests against Chinese rule in Tibet while the Olympic torch is carried to the summit.

The mountaineers, including Sir Ranulph Fiennes, the British adventurer, are forbidden from staying higher than Camp 2 until May 10, when the torch is expected to reach the top of the world’s highest peak.

Nepal imposed the restrictions under pressure from China, which has closed its side of Everest to prevent protests during the torch’s ascent.

Climbers on the Nepalese side can use radios to communicate with each other, although their conversations are monitored by military “liaison officers” assigned to each expedition.

They can ask for permission to use their satellite phones, but must speak in front of the officers.

The only other way to communicate with loved ones, sponsors or fans is by sending runners with handwritten messages to Gorak Shep, the nearest village below base camp, where the rules do not apply.

More Torch Relay Shame For China This Week and Other Olympic News

This week could be a devastating week for an already shamed and disgraced China and their government. News of the governments planned Political Education Program (torture and abuse) is only going to fan already out of control anger at China and its Olympic Torch. To make matters worse, the Flame of Shame is slated to travel through two serious hot spots this week in Jakarta and Canberra Australia...expect potential serious trouble in both spots, including a full out assault on the torch to simply kill the beast as it were. As it is, the route in Jakarta has been greatly shortened, Beijing pressuring Jakarta to shorten the route in the hopes a shorter route will allow security to better protect the torch...don't be so sure. Below are some important factoids and news links on the Beijing Olympics as they slide into the disaster zone. By the way...a note to China and it's marketing arm. The rest of the world really does not like your mascots, nor the cutsy 12 year old child memorbilia being created as souverniers for the games. A perfect example of this is the HORRID 100 day song now out for public disgrace.


Important Factoid found in Asia News source that people foolishing planning on attending the Olympics should be aware of-Meanwhile, to add to the drama, the Chinese authorities said today they have uncovered a plot to kidnap athletes and foreign journalists during the Games. The Ministry of Public Security said 35 people have been arrested. It claimed that the banned Uygher organization the East Turkestan Islamic Movement was behind the alleged plot.


Olympic Torch Jakarta


Guide Note: The Olympic Torch Relay is scheduled to pass through Jakarta on April 22, 2008. The event was originally planned to follow a 10 mile course through the center of the city, but the route has been shortened following security concerns and pressure from China. There have been anti-Chinese riots in Jakarta as recently as 1998. Officials are also concerned that the event may attract Tibetan Independence activists, whose Protests created a major impediment to the progress of the relay in Paris and San Francisco. Notice here, that is it CHINA that has shortened the torch route...that is a matter of GREAT SHAME for the Chinese people, proof that they cannot protect the flame from a few hundred protesters, let along protect China from the world. So much for their supposed military might.

Fast Facts:




  1. Scheduled for April 22, 2008
  2. Originally planned to follow a 10 mile course
  3. Route will now follow a path in and around the city's main stadium
  4. Shortened over security concerns
  5. Ant-Chinese riots broke out in Jakarta in 1998

Australians urging protesters not to target Olympic torch relay


The Associated Press , Canberra Tue, 03/25/2008 6:05 PM Sports The Australian government is pissing in the wind. Canberra could be the straw that breaks the camel's back as Pro-Tibetan protesters clash with the Nationalistic Pride of the Ex Pat community in Australia...I always say, if you love China so much, buy yourself a airplane ticket and head back to your oppressive Motherland.


Australia's senior Olympic official is urging political demonstrators not to target the Beijing Games amid global moves to bolster scurity for the torch relay following protests in Ancient Olympia.

A protester evaded tight security, ran behind Beijing Olympic chief Liu Qi, and held up a black banner showing the Olympic rings as handcuffs at the traditional lighting of the flame in Greece on Monday.

In other statements against China's human rights policies and crackdown in Tibet, three men advocating press freedom evaded massive security and ran onto the field at the ceremony in Ancient Olympia before they were seized by police.

And a Tibetan woman covered in fake blood briefly blocked the path of the torch relay.

"I think the Olympic Games are a cause and an agent for good, not a panacea for ills," former International Olympic Committee vice president Kevan Gosper, vice chairman of the IOC's Coordination Commission for the Beijing Games, said.

Protests are expected to coincide with the torch's arrival in the Australian capital on April 24.

"We will use the focus on Canberra and the torch to highlight the current situation in Tibet and to call for the torch not to go ... through Tibet and up Mount Everest," Australia Tibet Council executive officer Paul Bourke told the Australian Associated Press.

Bourke said protesters would travel from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane for the protest action.

"Tibet is virtually under a state of undeclared martial law and we don't believe it's appropriate to be taking the torch through Tibet at that time."

The Australian Capital Territory's chief minister John Stanhope is proposing high security when the flame is in Canberra during its 130-day journey to the Aug. 8 opening ceremonies in Beijing.


Intermission

Beijing Olympics-High on Promises, Low on Deliverables


Why The World Should Simply Just Say No To 2008 Beijing Olympics


When it comes to spending their Western earned dollars on infrastructure, China has done at best a mediocre job of fulfilling their commitments made to the IOC (International Olympic Committee), but when it comes to the intangibles, they get a failing grade all the way around.


China wants to strut its stuff like a proud peacock on the world stage, screaming to anyone that will listen, “LOOK AT US” as they excitedly point to their new highways, train lines and supposedly world-class stadiums. They steer reporters to their not quite completed airport, claimed to be the largest in the world, as proof positive that China is ready to welcome the world. (They are hoping for 500,000 visitors leading up to the Olympics, and this writer is hoping the number is far less.) In a tasteless show of new money largess, gaudy billboards compete with 1,000’s of newly planted trees for your attention, screaming out the Governmental Propaganda, “One World, One Dream”. In a nation known for human rights abuses, it is not surprising that China’s security system has passed muster with the FBI and Interpol.


Looking past the veneer of new buildings, stadiums and highways, the façade quickly fades as the world condemns China for suppressing Tibetan protests, their citizens in a rabid display of Nationalism demanding boycotts of various nations and companies for speaking their mind. (Think Jack Cafferty, Carrefour, CNN, BCC, France and the USA.) There are other serious issues that the IOC has done little too address, such as China’s sealing off from reporters major sections of the country in direct violation of China’s contractual agreements with the International Olympics governing body.


In winning the right to host the 2008 Beijing Olympics China pledged in 2002 to “be open in every respect” yet has just announced a two month Political Education Program (abuse and torture) in Tibet’s capital. At best, China has barely paid lip service to their pledge, trotting out Jiang Yu on an almost daily basis to deliver to the world media some driveling excuse for their acts of government sanctioned terrorist activities in Tibet, or worse delivering scathing missives that blame the world for not adequately protecting China’s beloved torch from hooligans, degenerative deviant protesters who, in China’s view, should be silenced, kept out of reach of the Torch Relay of Shame. China rather than honoring its pledge has chosen to lose face, choosing to continue violating human rights, rather than honor the sham 2004 Constitutional Amendment meant to protect human rights, meant to allow critics their freedom of speech.


Using ill gotten riches (think unfair trade practices), China has thrown billions of dollars at Beijing, dressing the city up like a two dollar whore, while ignoring intangible issues that run contrary to the Communist Government’s core interests, wrongfully assuming that glitz would appease the IOC as this secretive nation ignores pledges they are honor bound to keep. China’s intellectuals are stunned at the world’s reaction to the crack down in Tibet, had wrongfully assumed that their billions of dollars in infrastructure improvements would buy them a human rights FREE PASS for the Olympics, after which they could return to business as usual, imprisoning any of their citizens that got in the way of their great plan.


With just over three months before the opening ceremonies China has a long way to go and a short time to get there. The technical and strategic steps being implemented to improve the Beijing environment are questionable at best. When it comes to human rights and freedom of the world wide press during the Olympics, it seems a certainty that China is not going to come close to meeting their honor bound pledge to the IOC, and to the world.


The International Olympic Committee is not without fault, being far to concerned with nailing down lucrative contracts and endorsements, rather than keeping a close eye on China, pressing them much sooner to take the bold moves necessary to protect human rights, open China up (all sectors as promised) to the world wide press. As a result, there is a very real concern about Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Speech for both the athletes and visitors to the Beijing Olympic Games of Shame.


The IOC’s President, Jacques Rogge promises that athletes would be allowed to speak freely in Beijing’s Olympic venues rings hollow, and falls far short of China’s pledge. Will the athlete’s be allowed to speak freely while in China, rather than just in Olympic venues? What about the freedom of speech for the IOC’s visitors, the world citizens planning on attending the games in Beijing…has the IOC taken any steps to assure their rights? Olympic Historian David Wallechinsky is skeptical, says the IOC needed to be far more forceful, needed to take action much sooner than it has.


What Jacques Rogge does not want to admit, is he and the IOC were out foxed by China who made a honor bound pledge to improve human rights, but NEVER SIGNED A CONTRACT. In short, the IOC is standing in quicksand, powerless to demand necessary protections as they have nothing more than a moral commitment from China to improve human rights…you would think the president of the International Olympic Committee would know that such a pledge was only as good as the paper it was written on, especially when dealing with a deceitful and duplicitous nation like China. At this late stage in the game, short of taking the Olympics away, citizens and athletes of the world will attend the summer games at their own risk.

Should Western Reporters SKIP Beijing Olympics?

The Nationalism sweeping across China, the Political Education Program (torture and abuse) in Tibet's capital are disturbing trends as the Soiled and Spoiled 2008 Beijing Olympics approach. Futher, the ridiculous, radical over reaction of Chinese to Jack Cafferty's honest assessment of China and it's products should give reporters contemplating covering the Summer Olympics serious cause for pause. Secret police tails can be expected, your every move shadowed by a low level government weasel keeping and eye on everything you do, looking for any reason what so ever to detain you, torture you and deport you. God forbid you are accused of divulging State Secrets...a vague term used to sentence people to interminal punishments or years at slave labor. Perhaps Reuters, the AP, CNN, FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS and other major news organizations should simply SKIP THE OLYMPICS, cover the story from the safety of a desk at the home office, or a laptop sitting on your coffee table as you watch the action unfold on TV.


Conference Ponders Beijing Olympics Challenge For Reporters


From AP:



Secret police tails. Reprimands or perhaps even expulsion for writing about topics sensitive for the Chinese Communist Party. Propaganda apparatchiks working overtime to stifle negative news.


These were some of the grim scenarios painted Friday at a Paris conference sponsored by press freedom groups about conditions that foreign reporters might face at the Beijing Olympics this August.


China’s viewpoint was not heard: The two-day meeting’s organizers said Beijing Games officials, the International Olympic Committee, leading sports manufacturers and NBC, which holds the U.S. rights to broadcast the Olympics, declined or did not respond to invitations.

China Launching Two Month Torture and Abuse Campaign in Tibet in Preparation For the Beijing TORTURE OLYMPICS

China has announced a two month Political Education Program in Lhasa, Tibet's trouble plagued capital...this is Chinese Government code for torture and abuse, code for violation of human rights on a grand scale, thus making the 2008 Games the Beijing TORTURE Olympics. One has to ask, has the time come for America to arm the Tibetans?

China launches education drive in Lhasa, warns citizens

Sun Apr 20, 2008 10:05pm EDT

BEIJING (Reuters) - China's Communist Party has launched a two-month political education campaign in Tibet's restive capital Lhasa to attack pro-independence sentiment and support for the Dalai Lama.

China has blamed the unrest across Tibetan areas on a small "clique" of the Dalai Lama pressing for independence and seeking to upset Beijing's preparations for the 2008 Olympics.

Over a month has passed since monk-led protests against government control gave way to deadly anti-Chinese rioting in Lhasa on March 14, but security forces have wrestled with continued unrest there and across other Tibetan areas, and blamed it on the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader.

In a bid to reinforce control over Lhasa, Party authorities have launched an education drive focused on officials and Party members, the official Tibet Daily reported on Monday.

The campaign to "fight separatism, protect stability and promote development" would focus on "unifying the thinking and cohesive strength of officials and the masses, deepening the struggle against separatism, and counter-attacking the separatist plots of the Dalai clique," said the paper.

Party members and officials would be assessed on their "performance" in the two-month drive, which will include television programmes and organized denunciation sessions.

The Dalai Lama has denounced violence and said he supports Beijing holding the Games in August, but also accused Beijing of perpetrating possible "cultural genocide" in Tibet. China has called him an irrelevant exile.

But a huge paramilitary build-up across Tibetan areas, bans on much travel and tourism there, and now the "mass education" campaign suggest the government itself fears wider sources of discontent, including among officials and Party members.

Over the weekend, Beijing slightly loosened its usually strict ban on protest to allow angry citizens to denounce the Dalai Lama and urge boycotts of businesses accused of supporting him, especially the French supermarket giant Carrefour. Continued...

Setting aside the China Olympic's of Shame, the shambled Torch Relay that is an embarrassment to both China and the IOC, ignoring the government of China's hostile abuse of the people of Tibet has the time come for the world to bail on this Iran like insecure bully and their cheap, poorly made products? No one can argue that China's coming out party has been a horrid public relations disaster, the upcoming Olympic's in Beijing permanently and forever soiled because of China's antics, a spoiled child angry at not getting their way. How many of us are rooting for someone, anyone to extinquish the flame, are hoping something huge happens in Canberra to bring more attention to the plight of the Tibetan people? Yes, because of their antics, their hostile Nationalism, we want China to fail, to fall flat on their face as they try to present themselves to the world. However, setting all that aside, is it time for the financial markets and world nations to bail on China and their plan to open up to the world?

1. Perhaps through stupidity, China does not play fair with the rest of the world. They believe it is their right, their destiny to dictate the terms by which they will interact with everyone else, believe it is their right to manipulate their currency to benefit only themselves, believe it is their right to dump products on the world market at a time and place of their choosing...it might work for them and their communist government, but it is not really working for everyone else.

2. China cannot support its own population base, is dependent on the world to feed its masses...at what cost, and does this reality contribute to their massive funding of their military machine?

3. The China Stock market is imploding. There are reasons for this, including the fact that China has again stacked the deck in their nation's favor...in short, it is a MOCK CAPILISM. There was money to made in betting the market, but it seems to many of those investments have no real chance of providing a real financial return to out of country investors.

The Flame of Shame Relay, the bristling Nationalism that is sprining up should be warning signs that the time has come for the rest of the world to shun China until they can get their act together. No investments in their market, no investments in their infrastructure projects, and ceasing of trade with China until they are willing to level the playing field, are willing to play by international rules rather than thinking they have the right to rewrite the rules to suit their own needs and National Insterests.




China Stocks, Once Frothy, Fall by Half in Six Month

From the Wall Street Journal, reported by James T. Areddy in Shanghai and Craig Karmin in New York: The sharp decline in Chinese stocks is approaching a milestone: With a 4% drop Friday, the market has fallen by nearly half since its peak last fall.

China’s Growing Thirst for Milk Hits Global Market


From NPR’s Weekend Edition Saturday:



“I have a dream,” Prime Minister Wen Jiabao of China once said. But his dream wasn’t about civil rights for all or racial harmony. It was about a future where every Chinese child would have enough milk to drink — a half-liter a day for each child, to be exact.


Wen’s vision has given rise to a gigantic new market of milk drinkers in China, even as the demand there and in other developing nations has driven up prices worldwide.


In the United States, for example, a gallon of milk now costs about the same as a gallon of gasoline. And in China, some shoppers say they’ll have to cut back if the government doesn’t subsidize milk. (Let's keep our milk, let China raise its own dairy herds.)

Are China's Out of Control Netizens and Protesters the Next Radical Fundamentalist?

Watching various online news sources, watching the swelling Nationalism turning into a brush fire amoung China's younger set, feel like I am watching, "Chinese Gone Wild" without the titties being flashed. Their seething anger over what they consider affronts by the world lead me to ponder, are these over zealous rabid pro Chinese neaderthals the new up and coming replacement on world wide terrorist watch lists that normally track radical Islamic Fundamentalist groups such as al-Quida? Is China really nothing more than Iran on steriods? It is amazing that so much energy has been expended on outrage over Jack Cafferty's honest opinion, backed up by some serious facts. China (their government) has a LOT OF GOONS in it as is witnessed by a You Tube video on this site showing Chinese border guards shooting Tibetans in the back. In the past year here in America the evening news on an almost daily basis was filled with stories about another recall of problematic Chinese products, therefore making the JUNK comment accurate. Instead of accepting this basic truth, the youth of China have decided to BRING US TO OUR KNEES, calling for boycotts of the UK, France, America, CNN, the BCC and of course Carrefour.

Here is a clue for these hooligan youths...you, and your country are not near as high and mighty as you think you are. As one example, lets say that the UK, France and America all stopped sending rice, wheat and milk to China for a period of say six months. Just for the fun of it, let America (China's biggest trading partner) slap a 50 percent tariff on everything coming into America...there goes your pricing advantage. The one thing people need to know about America is we are slow to anger, but once you REALLY PISS US OFF, we tend to lash out in a vicious manner, and are not known for losing fights when pissed off. Remember, we are the only country in the world that has used THE BOMB, and if you are foolish enough to think we would not use it again, you are very wrong.

There are ways of dealing with a bully once people have had enough. China cannot afford to have key players stop their food shipments into China, and cannot afford to suddenly have wholesale orders of their goods drop to near zero...as fast as your economy has grown, it can be destroyed JUST AS EASILY. So, stop your whining, and try listening to other's truths.

Fresh anti-Western protests rock China

Posted 50 minutes ago

Fresh anti-Western protests have broken out in China, with angry demonstrators targeting US broadcaster CNN and French store Carrefour in rows over perceived bias, Tibet and the Beijing Olympics.

Protesters in Xian, Harbin and Jinan defied a huge police crackdown to chant slogans and hold banners that read "Oppose Tibet independence," "Oppose CNN's anti-China statements" and "Boycott Carrefour," a participant said.

"This was a patriotic movement, people want CNN and Carrefour to apologise," a protester at a Carrefour store in the northern city of Xian, Wang Zheng said.

"We oppose Tibetan and Taiwan independence and we also oppose the politicalisation of the Olympic Games."

As demonstrations continued, France said it was sending two envoys with messages from President Nicolas Sarkozy, who has been unpopular over his threat to boycott the Olympics opening ceremony.

Former prime minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin arrives on Wednesday while the President's top diplomatic adviser, Jean-David Levitte, is due to fly in next weekend.

Anti-French feeling was fanned by Paris's chaotic leg of the Olympic torch relay, while Carrefour's 122 supermarkets in China have been subject to boycotts over its alleged support of Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama, which it denies.

Protesters are also lashing out at the CNN TV network over its commentator Jack Cafferty, who caused outrage last week when he called the Beijing leadership "goons and thugs" and slammed the quality of Chinese exports.

According to the official Xinhua news agency, more than 1,000 people assembled in front of the Carrefour store in Xian, while demonstrations also occurred at stores in the north-eastern city of Harbin and Jinan in the east.

The protests follow noisy anti-China demonstrations in London, Paris and San Francisco that have marred the international Beijing Olympic torch relay, an event aimed at promoting this year's Games.

Chinese Nationalism Getting Out of Hand-Chinese Lady Boys Have Panties in Knot-Boycott France

Seems China's double standard when it comes to Freedom of Speech is starting to have a price as Chinese Nationalism futher shames China and their Beijing Olympics as young hormonal male Lady Boys (China's Netizen Geeks) target France...never mind that there is a very good chance that Jin Jing's supposed torch heroics were STAGED. They were threatening CNN and Jack Cafferty earlier this week, but when their alledged attack on CNN's website was a dismal failure they turned instead to holding their breath till their faces turned purple, then ran around the French Embassy like out of control moronic thugs demanding apologies from the French for accosting the torch, and shouting Tibet belonged to China! A word of advice...Chinese Government thugs will tolerate your antics for only so long before they put a bullet in your back, and haul your friends off to prison or a slave labor camp.



Torch protests stir strident Chinese nationalism





By Ben Blanchard


BEIJING (Reuters) - Dogged by anti-Chinese protests in Paris, London, San Francisco and New Delhi, the Olympic torch relay is acting as a catalyst for an outpouring of nationalism and indignation by the man on the street in China.


Protesters have burnt French flags in front of French-owned supermarkets in the eastern Chinese city of Qingdao, called for boycotts of French goods, and have rallied in Australia, appealing for volunteer guards to protect the flame when it passes through Canberra.


In an increasingly wired society, many, especially the Internet-savvy young, have taken to the Web to express their feelings and demand action.


One popular Chinese online chatroom, Tianya, has called for donations of Chinese flags to support the relay on the remaining legs of its international tour, which includes stops in South Korea, Japan and Vietnam.


"Countrymen, let our five-star red flag fly high and welcome the Olympic torch!", one post proudly proclaimed.




ANGER OVER DISRUPTED TORCH RELAY

Protests in China Target French Stores, Embassy










Washington Post Foreign Service
Sunday, April 20, 2008; Page A23



BEIJING, April 19 -- A small knot of Chinese protesters demonstrated outside the French Embassy on Saturday, denouncing calls for Tibetan independence and venting anger at those who tried to grab the Olympic torch from a disabled Chinese athlete during the Paris stretch of the relay.



In several other cities across China, hundreds of protesters jammed parking lots in front of French-owned Carrefour supermarkets, waving Chinese flags and calling for a boycott.


The Chinese government generally bans such demonstrations. But in the weeks since protests erupted in Tibet over Chinese rule, the government has angrily attacked what it sees as anti-Chinese bias in foreign media and warned that outsiders were attempting to split the country. Nationalist sentiment is running high, especially in Internet forums, where users exhort one another to fight back.


At the French Embassy, a short line of cars carrying banners that read "Tibet Belongs to China" in Chinese, English and Japanese circled the perimeter, with at least one car blaring the Chinese national anthem, according to witness reports. Police, some in riot gear, quickly cordoned off the area, and the protesters left after about 30 minutes. Streets around the embassy remained blocked into the evening.

Beijing Olympics Flame of Shame World Map


The Beijing Olympics Flame of Shame World Map for those looking for yet another piece of Pro Tibet material to use in our online efforts to bring awareness to the Human Rights abuses of the oppressive government of China.

China Does Not Get It...They Are Proving They Are Not Ready For The World Stage

The Sleeping Dragon has Awakened, and Appears to Be Stupid.
The Chinese were planning on the Olympic Torch (now Flame of Shame) Relay being their coming out party on the World Stage, thought the entire world would fall to our knees in joy, accepting them and their Communist dictums with open arms. They failed to realize the world would hold them accountable for their Human Rights abuses, take them (government) to task for being a bunch of dishonest, thieving, brutish thugs trying to reign supreme in the world as the next new Super Power. Using slave labor, ruling with an iron fist hidden in a velvet glove, the China of today is the same China the world has not trusted for decades, perhaps centuries. This is part of why the Olympic Torch Relay has turned into a nightmare, a public relations fiasco of the worst kind as ever increasing numbers of police and military personnel are being called upon to stop the world from snuffing out a flame that should never have been lit, creating a Kodak moment that China and the IOC cannot run away from.

Even if these over whelming uses of brut force are successful in keeping the torch from being extinguished again, it is too late. Both China and the IOC have lost face in the eyes of the world, have been shamed on the world stage…it would be best, and perhaps safer if China were to simply CANCEL the Olympics, rather than risk a horrid event similar to the 1972 Munich Olympics Massacre. The flame is and should be under attack, and sadly when the Olympics are opened, there is a high likelihood they will also be under attack by millions of people who’s families have been harmed by this hard line Communist Nation…China’s moment in the sun their opportunity to even the score. With each stop along the route, both sides are growing more bitter, angrier and frustrated, and that is a recipe for trouble, creates opportunity for words and signs to become bullets and bombs. China is too proud to admit it, but the Torch Relay has shown the world they are NOT READY for primetime, do not have the class, nor the wisdom to hold an event of this magnitude in a way that does not offend the rest of the world.

Reading the Chinese Government Propaganda, the hate speech of China’s netizen’s it is obvious that China is frustrated at their own inability to control their affairs, unable to dictate to the world that we will be happy for them, cooperate and rejoice in their dream. It’s almost sad to watch Jiang Yu embarrass herself, her nation with her hall monitor scolding of the world, trying to chide us into proper behavior like errant children. She needs to get a clue…you do not scold westerners, we have not been raised in a nation where citizens are imprisoned for questioning the government and its authority, we believe in Freedom of Speech, and China does not really understand this as was witnessed by their over reaction to Jack Cafferty’s honest, albeit distasteful remarks…as they say, the truth hurts, and Jack spoke the truth. In China, the worst thing in the world is losing face, and the entire nation HAS LOST FACE, will continue to lose face if their nation keeps traveling the Olympic Road in the fashion they have chosen for themselves so far.

Hu Xingdou, a political analyst at the Beijing Institute of technology was quoted as saying, “All that has happened is a kind of humiliation”, and “The government never expected this.” What did he and the government expect? Were they really so foolish as to believe their civil rights abuses would simply be ignored? You do not evict people out of their homes, bulldoze down their houses just so you can host an Olympics, but China did! You do not destroy the Tibetan culture; refuse a people their freedom without the world revolting against your wrongs. You do not trot out Jiang Yu to deliver veiled threats to other nations if they DO NOT CONTROL THEIR PEOPLE, DO NOT PROTECT YOUR TORCH. You do not threaten CNN when one of their newscasters speaks his mind, you do not have your citizens threatening boycotts of French companies because their citizens protested your human rights abuses without paying a high price…of course the Flame of Shame is a humiliation to China as it very well should be. You have marched out onto the world stage with a national sense of entitlement you quite frankly HAVE NOT EARNED.

Perhaps China’s naiveté was best expressed in an article written by China’s diplomat to the UK, Fu Ying who stated, “On the complicated question of religion mixing with politics, separation is unacceptable. But people are well-fed, well-clothed and well-housed. That has been the main objective of China for centuries. Tibet may not grow into an industrial place like the eastern cities in China, but it will move on like other parts of China.” It is rather sad that an educated woman has been so brain washed by the indoctrination process that is China that she cannot see the stupidity of her own belief contained in her words. China’s gifts/bribes of food, clothing and shelter mean nothing if the Tibetan people cannot be free, mean nothing if in your quest to move on you are willing to destroy that very culture that makes Tibet and its people what and who they are. Without freedom, that rest is of no importance, as you are still slaves to a demeaning and demanding master.

Shen Dingli a supposed scholar at the Fudan University in Shanghai expresses an intellectual shallowness when he ponders, “Why can't those rich countries do a better job than India does?" Because our leaders realize you cannot beat a people into submission, cannot get us to obey laws through the use of overwhelming force, and most importantly, in using that overwhelming force against our citizens, we would become China, and that is unacceptable. What good is a showed if it is staged and fake, what good are applause if gotten at the business end of a gun, coerced with threats of torture and abuse? Furthermore, there is a certain wisdom in that old adage that if you love something you must let it go, set it free and if it comes back it is yours. A slightly different way of looking at things is to remember the story in the Bible about the prodigal son. China sees Tibet almost as the errant child but is unwilling to let it go…perhaps wisdom dictates that errant child must be allowed the freedom to go off on their own, make their own mistakes, and come back to the fold OF THEIR OWN CHOOSING, and it that return will be great celebration for China.

China’s goal, its hopes were that the Summer Game would showcase to the world what China had accomplished, how much they had changed. It was to be their chance to show off, witnessed by what is scheduled to be the most expensive Olympic Games in the history of the world, and instead everything is spinning out of control as Tibet supporters loudly take center stage. The world spotlight is not shining down on Beijing’s stunning skyline, their spectacular skyscrapers and the best Olympic facilities that money could buy. China is angry, China is shamed, but most importantly, China is hurt as hooligans interfere with China’s rise, stagger even halt their forward progress as one of the major players in world politics.

Out of stubbornness, out of pride the Torch Relay must and will go on as China INSISTS ON IT, growing more difficult with each and every step. Surely the BOCOG and the IOC are holding their collective breath as the torch gets closer to landing in Australia where Chinese Nationalism could come crashing into Tibetan Pride with real potential for riots in the offing. Already the chartered jetliner meant to be a symbol of pride is being landed in tucked away militarily controlled areas instead of there being lavish media coverage as the torch jets from on location to another the parade of nations a laughable sideshow, the freaks when the circus comes to town. It is not going to be any different in Canberra, and the government there knows it, would probably beg out of hosting the Torch if China would not take such great offense and umbrage at such an act of what they would see as disrespect.

The sad news and the good news all rolled into one, is that China’s fate is in its own hands. They could still have the great fan fare they want, could still WOW the world with the greatest Olympics the world has ever seen. Problem is, have they grown enough to cut lose the apron strings and let both Tibet and Taiwan go? Nothing could earn China more respect around the world than for them to give the people of these two lands their freedom, and in that single act China will gain what it seeks more than any other….acceptance for the great nation they have the ability to be.
