Well, Obama should listen to American’s more than he listens to the Communist Government of China! As an American patriot, Obama should meet with the Dalai Lama, so we can all hear the other side of the story, instead of alway’s having to listen the Communist Party. However, we American’s already know the truth about the alleged “splitism,” and it’s more like annexation than splitism. Aside from that any body of people should be allowed to split, especially when those people are being trampled upon, and their culture destroyed in their own country.
We’re living in the 21st century, and this shouldn’t even be happening when there are international laws in place against genocide. Tibet was annexed by the communist government, and they did everything they possibly could then and now to destroy any history of an Independent Tibet. There is enough evidence proving independence, to include a diplomatic passport, UN evidence, and several countries who had relations with Tibet long before the invasion of Independent Tibet.
China said Thursday that President Barack Obama should not meet the Dalai Lama, the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader, when he visits the United States in October.
Although a meeting has not been confirmed, every president since George H.W. Bush has met the Dalai Lama, raising the ire of China, which says the Nobel Peace laureate is bent on splitting Tibet from China.
“We firmly oppose the Dalai’s engagement in separatist activities in any country under whatever capacity and under whatever name,” Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said when asked to comment on a possible meeting.
“We have made representations to the United States urging the U.S. to honor its commitments and not allow the Dalai to engage in separatist activities in the United States,” she told a regular news conference.

It’s a no brainier!
How hard can it be to charge a criminal for crimes? Oh, he’s a former President, I see, so I suppose that means every President of every country can also break laws including international laws against torture and genocide? Why have those laws?
So, why did we go into Iraq?
Many of those alleged supporters of Bush claimed that Sadam was torturing, and that’s why we are there. That’s what they said, but they also alleged other things as well. Maybe they don’t know what they’re talking about and support Bush regardless of what he’s done, so they come up with all kinds of myth stories to try and support him.
Hold Bush and His Joint Co-Conspirators Criminally Accountable!
…
The rule of law, justice, and basic integrity require the indictment for criminal wrongdoing of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, Donald Rumsfeld, Alberto Gonzales, and other high officials of the former Bush Administration.
The media establishment is surprised by the ground swell of support from the grassroots for the pursuit of individuals who committed grievous crimes during the Bush era.
We are not surprised that the people are demanding accountability for those who committed wars of aggression, torture, and subverted the Constitution and thus violated not only their oaths of office but domestic and international law.

These crimes are not abstract nor can they be ignored as belonging to a distant past. Millions of people have suffered and continue to suffer because of the criminal invasion of Iraq.
The vital resources of the country have been drained in a criminal enterprise benefiting war profiteers. The people know of and are outraged by the billions of dollars in profit made by Dick Cheney’s Halliburton and that is only the tip of the iceberg.
The pressure is building. President Obama said at his press conference this week, “My view is also that nobody’s above the law, and if there are clear instances of wrongdoing, that people should be prosecuted just like any ordinary citizen,” when asked about the pursuit of Bush Administration officials for criminal wrongdoing.
In a new poll, an astounding 2/3 of the American public favors investigating whether the Bush Administration broke the law. “A majority of respondents said a probe should be launched into allegations that the Bush team used torture…[and] investigators also should look into the former President’s program of wiretapping U.S. citizens without first securing court-issued warrants.” (AFP 2/12/09) [read more]

Stop the next Prop. 8!
In an incredible week for equality, lesbian and gay couples in Iowa and Vermont BOTH won the right marry.
But right-wing groups are mounting a campaign to reverse the decision in Iowa with a constitutional marriage ban – just like California’s Proposition 8. They have even launched a national TV ad, full of outrageous falsehoods, in the wake of these landmark victories: [video links]
EXTREMISTS THREATS H8 BASEBALL JERSEY
Land of the Free [H8] Extremists Threaten Free America! Extremism seems to be the perpetrator of Prop 8. Biblical extremists intimidate and threaten free people. No on 8! Stop tyranny and the tyrant mobs!
That’s sick!
No regard for any kind of life! Especially since it’s the communist paramilitary police that started all this. The Genocide Olympics had already been tarnished by the way the communists have treated the Tibetan people on the Tibetan Plateau and else where. When China was given the opportunity of hosting the Olympics, one of the promises was to be more open and allow for more freedom of the Tibetan people and foreign journalists, well we can all see what happened with that.
The communist party imprisons any one who speaks up on truth regardless of being a Tibetan citizen or Chinese citizen. Talk about the true history of Tibet, go to prison, but I’ve never seen that on the Monopoly board.
China executed two members of a Muslim minority on Thursday after finding the men guilty of killing 17 police in an attack last year in the country’s far west that Beijing said was an attempt to sabotage the Beijing Olympics.
An overseas activist group called for an investigation of the men’s trial and allegations that they were tortured in custody.
The executions in China’s Xinjiang region came a day after two Tibetans were sentenced to death for arson during riots in Lhasa last spring, showing the government’s determination to tamp down unrest in regions that have chafed under its rule. An overseas group said security has been tightened in cities in Xinjiang with house-to-house searches of residents.
The attack on police last August in the city of Kashgar near the border with Pakistan and Afghanistan was the most brazen of several in the weeks around the Olympics, marring what the government and many Chinese hoped would be a showcase of China as a modern power.
Abdurahman Azat and Kurbanjan Hemit were convicted in December of ramming a truck into a group of police and then lobbing bombs at the officers and stabbing them on Aug. 4, four days before the start of the games, according to the court. [read more]

Why so many head injuries?
There’s new technology out there, as well as better headgear and body armor. So, why do our soldiers have so many head injuries and deaths? Well, remember when mothers and fathers were purchasing bulletproof vests for their soldier children? Some people even had bake sales just so they can get the money they needed for their soldier children.
Some commands told the soldiers to stop that, and that there parents were not allowed to purchase those items for them. It’s not just about proper body gear either, it’s about proper equipment during the Bush years and the Bush bureaucracy in getting the equipment to our soldiers. I think Cheney’s company Haliburton made out very well with tax dollars given to them, as well as all those other corporation that received money from Bush, but our soldiers didn’t get anything. Do you really “Support Our Troops?” If you do then why didn’t any one on the social conservative side stand up for them?
I just wanted to reiterated that I truly support our soldiers, and I am one of those calling for the safe return home for our soldiers because I did not, and still don’t believe in the Bush wars. Many people on the “right” or right wing constantly and constantly belittle people on the left alleging that we don’t support the troops and the people on the right claim they do.
In one of my other blog’s, one guy even commented that people against Prop 8 insulted our soldiers and attacked churches. Well, I seriously doubt that. Perhaps it was just one person because I don’t support Prop 8, and as a former Marine I believe in democracy and equality for the law to all citizens. Not favoritism to fanatical teachings. His statement tries to allege that certain people don’t support the troops, and that’s the kind of statements that people on the right continue to say even though it is wrong, it’s constant lies, one lie after another from people planting false seeds into the mind of others, so they can gain favor from other’s under false pretenses and perhaps gain more converts and more money.
As I have always said, don’t believe the lies from those people. Educate yourselves, and know your history.
If they truly support our troops they would be calling for the safe return of those in Iraq, and give them a break from all that. When Bush was in office they should have pressured Bush and Pentagon to give our soldiers proper body and headgear of the latest technology available, and pressured Bush to bring our soldiers home safely, yet they did none of that.
What needs to be done now is to reevaluate this Bush war, give our soldiers a break, and bring them all home as soon as possible!
Every soldier who’s gone to war in the past year paused before leaving to take a brain test – basic math, matching numbers and symbols and identifying patterns to measure response time and accuracy. Now that some of these troops have returned, they’re taking a fresh round of tests, all part of a broad effort by the military to better treat head injuries.
The Department of Defense is also deploying some unusual weapons for treating the injuries, including paint guns and motion-sensitive video games integrated into therapy at new trauma centers around the country.
Funding for the treatment of these injuries is expected to increase under President Barack Obama, who said Thursday his new military and veterans affairs budget will focus on diagnosing brain injuries and psychological disabilities that have gone untreated.
More than 150,000 service members from the Marines, Air Force, Army and Navy have undergone the testing that became mandatory last year. Those who suffer a concussion or similar head injury will get a follow-up test. [read more]
Here China is occupying another country, Tibet, and the Tibetan people are peacefully protesting for their freedom. No country is helping, probably because they are not at “war.” Interesting how country’s will run to another countries aid when they are fighting and killing each other with all sorts of weapons, yet Tibetan’s have no machine guns, tanks or personal gear to fight a war. The Tibetan’s are protesting for their freedom peacefully, though, the Chinese paramilitary police often instigate riots, and rightly so for the Tibetan people, as any one else would do as a human being.
I find the communist party very disturbing for executing people for peacefully protesting, though there was a riot, that riot was instigated by the communist paramilitary police. The communist chines party is at fault, not the Tibetan people.
China: Stop the Executions!
On April 8th, China sentenced two Tibetans, Lobsang Gyaltsen and Loyak, to death for their alleged involvement in last year’s protests in Lhasa. Two others, Phuntsok and Kangtsuk, were also sentenced to death but with a two year reprieve, and Dawa Sangpo was sentenced to life imprisonment.These harsh sentences signal an alarming escalation in the Chinese government’s campaign to punish and intimidate Tibetans who dare to speak out against Chinese rule.
