USA

December 10th, 2010

I came to America more than 20 years ago, not to pursuing the American Dream

, but only for being able to breath freely. When I was in China, I

encouraged my students to join other demonstrating students to show their

solidarity and to learn from the society classroom. In the early month of

June, 1989 I, as well as the vast majority of Chinese students and scholars

in US walked onto streets to protest and condemn Chinese government’s

crackdown on peaceful student demonstration in Beijing, and donated money

for the students’ course. I want to see China to be a modern, democratic

and free country with her citizens enjoying every right a human being

entitled to. But such Chinese society should be made and defined by the

Chinese people, no defined or pressured by any foreign influence, and

particularly it should no be a puppet state or colony of foreign nation(s).

I will not hesitate to criticize or condemn the CCP and Chinese government

whenever I see its action harmful to the interests of China nation and

Chinese people, neither I will keep silent because such actions are come

from ‘democratic, free’ countries.

I don’t consider Liu Xiaobo’s advocating for 300 years’ colonization as

big offense, mostly a sensational show off for publicity. However, his

willingness to be a second-class citizen of Western nations does not

represent the interests of 1.3 billion Chinese people. His accepting money

from the National Endowment for Democracy establishes himself as a foreign (

particularly, US) agent whose only purpose is to sabotage the sovereignty

and integrity of China nation. Since its creation by CIA, did NED have done

anything that is beneficiary to foreign people it pretends to ‘help’ other

than assisting US government to fortify America’s global hegemony position.

Norwegian Nobel Peace Prize committee is smart enough to praise Liu Xiaobo

for his ‘human rights activism’ not for promoting world peace, because Liu

has nothing to brag about peace activities, if not the opposite. But please

enlighten me what ‘human rights’ activity he has done, or simply because

he is jailed by Chinese government? A award for democracy maybe more

relevant for Liu, but then he is only one in 100,0000 on Tiananmen Square,

and one in millions in China in 1989 went on streets to protest.

It is no surprise that the Nobel Peace Prize committee has a political

agenda in picking up Liu. The problem is that it picked a wrong person. Many

Chinese dissidents are more qualified than Liu, and many have done great

deal to help the poor people and the society. In the chorus launched by US

government and mainstream media condemning Chinese government’s attempt to

block the Award ceremony, many equating China as Nazi Germany, a good

observer can detect the missing components, a supporting voice from the

Chinese, in China and overseas – a startling contrast to the solidarity

between oversea Chinese and west media in the wake of Tiananmen Square

students demonstration crackdown in June 4, 1989. US may be used to imposing

‘regime change’ over foreign sovereign nations without the support of

endogenous people. However, China is not Iraq and US dare to use the same

strategy it used in Iraq and Afghan to China. This is why Liu Xiaobo is

useful and important. Unfortunately (or fortunately based on personal

judgment) Liu does not resonate a big echo of his voice/thoughts in Chinese.

I will say it is a dream trying to make regime change without the support

of majority Chinese people.

Today’s US the press environment is increasingly suffocating. The

mainstream media have hijacked honest journalism, instead filled news

reporting with twist and manipulations and lies. Free press without

objectivity and factuality has no difference from propaganda and brainwash.
