Falun Gong?
Dalai Lama?
Censorship of Google?
China is a Maoist/Stalinist dictarorship that supresses information it doesn't want its citizens to see.
The US Congress VOTED to approve the war in Iraq. The response to Katrina is primarily a local responsibility, the federal gov. is there for support only.
The Christian church in China has been and still is supressed, or why else would a Catholic Bishop be in prison?
You are correct that China has come a long way, but so long as it remains essentially a Stalinist society its people will not be free. Economic development in the absense of social liberty will stunt Chinese growth.
I thank you for your opinions and your time, however, your apologies for the current regime carry little weight w/ me. Until there is an active opposition party in China it will continue to be a totalitarian oligarchy. I don't see, nor does anyone else, the development of such a party.
By the way, congratulations on your command of the English language, its not bad.
Many years have past since the Tiananmen Square protest, which is ineed the fault of the current government.
Falun Gong? Do you know what kind of religion is the Falun Gong? In the long history of Europe there have been many people appealing to resist the repression on science by the old and stenchful religions, some of them was killed but they are commemorated as heros, like Giordano Bruno. That’s because those religions in the middle ages is evil and do nothing but the evil to the people.
So you could search for the results of Falun Gong. a government must be crazy to admit such a religion when it claims that their tenets can totally substitute the medicament, that there is no need to go hospital when the believers come to ill, that entices its believers to sprinkle petrol on their body and set themselves to fire, that drive many believers to mad including some around me.
Censorship of Google? I admit that there exist censorship in China, for example I am unable to access my persol blog if not by adopting another way to unblock the Great Firewall of the government. This indeed need improvement, But I can access all the google sevices normally, including all the main media in the America.
The Congress does not represent the common Ameicans, after most of them act against it. I got it from NYT, you can find more than a thousand of articles criticizing this war.
The response to Katrina is primarily a local responsibility? The federal military is there for support only? You know when Chinese army go to the quake area they bear the tools to save, while the federal military beared guns and drove tanks to SUPPORT.
Could give me more details on the Catholic Bishop be in prison? I have no idea of it.
thanks for your praise. And I restate it: I am here to contend for the truth instead of critizing anything.
Very thanks for your reply, which benifits me, too.
