    We have now 3 areas of western led "revolutions": Iran, Urumqi and Honduras.
    All I can say is: The CIA is behind everything!!!
    The "Tibeten issue" really did`nt matter much as the Xinjang issue will cause much problems for China. The West wants to "hurt China real bad" but without any diect consequence to themselves.

    U.S.-Russian Nuclear Agreement: Good News and Bad News
    by Robert Higgs (Tuesday, July 7, 2009)

    He was, in his heyday, a dry, boring man with the appearance of a corporate executive who taught Baptist Sunday School classes.
    He was very bright and energetic, but dry and boring, driven by an insane need for success and with no evident ethical standards beyond those associated with the ferociously ambitious.
    The United States, under his advice and that of others like McGeorge Bundy, created the greatest holocaust (…)

    The US and the Honduran coup
    1 July 2009
    Washington’s criticisms of the June 28 military coup that ousted President Manuel Zelaya of Honduras lack any element of sincerity or historical truth. The Obama administration is uneasy at the ouster of Zelaya, a conservative-turned-populist allied to Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez, because it reveals all too clearly the character of US foreign policy.
    President Barack Obama’s condemnation of Zelaya’s overthrow as a “terrible precedent” is (…)

In the May attacks Afghan officials put the death toll at 140, significantly higher than U.S. claims. In the same strikes the Afghan Independent Human Rights (…)
