In my opinion, if the US is for liberty, its government should welcome all the Chinese who are willing to immigrate there. If the US were really for liberty, it ought to have let all the states become independent if they would. However, the Civil proved that it were a mere liar.Just imagine, China has no states. And they claim so. However, the US has so many states. It started one war after another. If it were for justice, it ought have let the Southern states become independent;it ought to have returned the southern states it had taken from Mexico to Mexico; it ought to have turned the whole land to the hands of the Indians.

Very glad to join the discussion.As a matter of fact, no one will deny that different people think differently. Strangly enough,many Chinese can tolerate what the Americans are for in their country. However, they can never understand why the US are eager to force their opinion on them. If the US really wants to improve the so-called human rights situation, why doesn’t offer money to help the relatively poor regions in China? Moreover, why doesn’t it allow all the Chinese who are eager to move to America, a land that originally belonged to the Indians,freely? The US, in this sense, is merely a trouble-maker,a country that merely talks big.

Come here and make your own judgements? As a guide, i met a person who only took pics of unpleasant situaions here in China, for nobody will believe what he has taken if he only took pics of the good side. jokingly, an English woman told me the papers there told them only babies drink milk here, so she was shocked that many people did.

This is an interesting article that might throw some light on all this.

It bothers me when people hear only one side of a story… or when they tell stories as if only one side could possibly exist….We all do it… and still I am often surprised at how facts are used merely…

Expat...do you really think the UN has power to do anything?

I only wish they did.

It seems China and Russia often take sides against the US just to have some leverage against them. But, then if China is the issue, then what?

It seems it will take some grass roots activity to make a difference in my mind.

Time will tell.

Thanks again for visiting.

I spent many weeks in China… and especially enjoyed this lively discussion… Thanks for the views on several sides… Like many of you I am unsure of all the details on this topic. However, I made very close friendships with business and professional leaders there and we had open discussions about these topics. The answers are complex… but I left China disturbed that too often we westerners see and respond without the thoughtful exchanges we read here. Thanks for helping us to take of gentler view of other nations… You could be starting something great here Bill!

I’d say there are a lot of people in Vancouver, especially Chinese Immigrants who hold a silent vigil and protect daily. It’s very interesting and has opened up my eyes to the conflict. But really, unless the UN steps in, I’m not sure what else can be done to help.
