I was also reminded, by James Kynge, of what Napoleon has said, "Let China sleep, for when she wakes, she will shake the world."<br /><br />The question seems to be that, now that China has acquired a tremendous importance in the economical and political world, why is she so afraid of the protests of single, unknown people to the point of jailing them, torturing them, or killing them?<br /><br />Could it be that she has lost control of her secret services' actions? And shouldn't China be more worried about world's opinion if she wants to wield a shaking role in the world's affairs?<br /><br />Puzzling points, hm? :)Claudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307495672130972111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507673653895812509.post-15794661119518459602010-02-06T21:19:53.066+01:002010-02-06T21:19:53.066+01:00When I despair of human nature,in general, (and al...When I despair of human nature,in general, (and also of my own) and I learn the actions of people like Gao Zhishen, Liu Xiaobo, and other dissidents, I know that all is not lost. As long as there is one voice, crying in the wilderness, there is hope that we will make it. What is important is that we know of those courageous people, and that we remember them, and support them, tangibly when possible. In our heart, always.<br /><br />Thank you for the post, Sean.:)Claudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307495672130972111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507673653895812509.post-62782816428609867902010-02-06T12:30:56.832+01:002010-02-06T12:30:56.832+01:00Those with power often do such vile acts for no ot...Those with power often do such vile acts for no other reason but because they can.
