Recently, a few EU countries (France, Germany) joined UK in recognizing China’s rule over Tibet. History tells us that UK was among the few most stubborn counties that would try their best to apply the “divide and conquer” tactic in dealing with China issues. Chinese media reported this triumph in diplomacy all right, but I am a little surprised that almost no “main stream media” touched this seemingly boiling-hot topic which was indeed so in the early months of 2008, instead, there are only some whiners scattered around the online forums that cries foul play.
What is going on here?
I also read news that many western countries are in deep shit of the financial crisis and are drooling on the huge foreign currency reserve held by China’s central bank (by all means I am not sure whether China is in the same ditch already, so instead of the world savior whether it could even be the savior for itself becomes a question). Nonetheless, it becomes clear that who’re wiggling their tails now. I would really admire them if any of these low level countries still have the courage to demand human rights and free Tibet while begging for help. So where exactly are the “moral authorities” right now? Did they change their masks in order to continue the party? I have to say that this is really disgusting!
So for these governments that have been brainwashing their people by feeding them fallacies all over these years, it’d be interesting to watch how they could justify such move to their people, tell them what they’ve heard before were all BS? That has to be a daunting task, although I still trust them to be able to manipulate public opinions again, like what they have always done.
No wonder Dalai Lama is the biggest loser here, not by weight though. He and his surrogates have been used as ammunitions to attack China and he didn’t know it? It’s wake up time now.
