U.S. House speaker critical of China over Tibet
CNN reports here: DHARAMSALA, India - U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Friday criticized China for its crackdown on anti-government protesters in Tibet and called on "freedom-loving people" worldwide to denounce China.
The D.L. has a mansion in Westchester County, New York and drivers and lives the jet set life like the New age Yoga stars. This has little to do with the reality of life in China for his people or the Chinese people. Most leaders including him are not representing issues correctly. He even said he would resign if there were more violence. Good idea. Meditate and stay away from an evolving planet. Peace-yes a great idea-but his friend from the US presides over the most elite and rich government body that have free gas credit cards, cannot be arrested if on the way to the senate for anything and basically have little handle on their own affairs like for example IRAQ.
The premier of China is an honorable, intelligent man who is not going to be bullied by the agenda of western new age hocus-pocus movie stars or subversives planted by foreign governments. Yes there are problems in the region and yes it is a difficult situation. To attack a government that advocates democracy (Yes Premier Wen has said that more than once on TV he wants China to advance to a democratic system- but probably FOX and CNN black it out in your country. They don’t call it censorship in America, They call it editorial privilege) is backwards thinking at the least.
