The pop star? I don't follow.
The CIA may or may not have had something to do with the killings of
JFK/MLK but even that wouldn't change the fact that dissent is much
more tolerated in the US than China. Surely you know not to cherry-
pick examples to prove something. That's called "proof by anecdote"
and is used constantly by politicians and other fools as a substitute
for honest discussion.

The third choice....he can choose to stay in China with his wife
and kids. And he has so chosen.
For centuries Chinese are ³çÑóÃÄÍâ . In this case, there is no different,
except the western media played it up.."Chen in his broken English...Mrs
Clinton...I want to kiss you". Blind Chen is physically blind, his context
of the world is different from us BUT his helpers should have a crystal
clear idea of the real world.. In her speech, Mrs Clinton has NEVER
mentioned about Blind Chen, but she stressed on Human Right etc, of course
in the self-righteous manner.

All these actions took place in the complex inter course of
the culture differences between China, representing
5000 years of cultural vintage ....and the USA, representing
the new kid with Hollywood glitz and dazzle cultural
extravaganza...being sold to everyone around the world
as democracy with human rights and the rule of law
The glitz and dazzle US culture, like narcotics are
irresistible to many in China who want to try the
new high, the new experience...(Not unlike Mao
experimenting with communism in the 60s) They are not
happy with only Chinese tea and Chinese wine... The
new US culture is overwhelming ..even to the blind like
Chen. It is highly addictive..just like the Opium sold to
China not so many centuries ago.
Like the Latin drug lords, who push narcotics...the USA
went to wars (in Iraq and Afghanistan) to push
their Hollywood culture. In China, the USA has
started the cultural invasion since Tianannmen ...
and has been at it relentlessly to establish this
US cultural hegemony.
Activist blind Chen is a US foot soldier who has
become an icon of sort for US culture advocacy ...and
he is really a convict who betrayed his Chinese
cultural heritage.
The Chinese leaders view this episode as a storm in a
tea cup...they refused to even mention blind Chen's
name in top level meetings with the USA... but Western
media and Obama treat it as a crisis of national significance.
This is the underlying difference between the two cultures.
Yes, i agree with you. In the book "The Web that has no weaver" (I believe
it is still available for loan from our library), the author stated that for
centuries Chinese medical practitioners have been writing commentary ×¢½â
for »ÊµÛÄÚ¾ but for the western doctors since they don't have this type of
authoritative books they must invent new drugs or surgery procedures to
fight diseases, China will be china and the west will be the west, I think
they are like oil and water cannot be mixed, hopefully Blind Chen knows that
he is being used.

my question is more to the tune of: without a thorough analysis of the history of the interactions between US and China / N Korea / Iran, especially the contributions to the problem on the part of the US, how can an objective third party concur with your POV?
Take Iran ... please!!!

(and our neighbouring country's) bizness ... they are evil! why should i bend to their will?

does your "rational discourse" include considering things from your
enemy's point of view, or is it merely justifying your own point of view with your own point of view (a thinly-veiled form of circular logic used by Baldeagle)?
why are you like Baldeagle? i thought you are better?

why must i be proving anything? can't i be just asking questions?

You question is too vague then. I don't understand the relationship of
your Michael Jackson question to the CIA.
I assume your question is related to my comment "by any objective
standard
the US allows dissent much more than China does" and the fact that the
CIA has played games doesn't change that.

I don't use circular logic. You must be misunderstanding. Rational
discourse is about honest discussion from the POV of truth. There is
truth. The sky is blue, for example. It's not all relative to a POV.

All that should be accounted for.

I can understand that point of view. But I also know plenty of
Iranians who also think that Iranian government is nuts. Of course
it's true that the US has behaved badly at times with Iran. I'm not
promoting some "USA!" type rah rah philosophy. Just honest discussion.
The US has behaved badly, but the Iranians are nuts. Irrational is
hard to deal with.

Asking too many questions can be bad. For one thing, it starts to
annoy people after a while, which is bad if you want to keep having a
discussion. Questions should be combined with rational commentary.

Blind Chen work for the USA...as a human right activist...
he is not 'being used'but paid to do a job.
The episode has shown that the USA is being used by
Chen ..to realize his dream of going to the USA and being
taken care by uncle Sam.

By the way, why are you, a non citizen, frothing in the mouth with
your testicle bags tied up in a knot?
There are so many Chinese citizens who are supporting Chen and calling
for the release of the hundreds who are unjustly detained. Likewise
there has been protests in Taiwaqn and Hong Kong.
So, will you say that those people are also US activists?

No enough....the USA is bankrupt now...do not have
enough,...to pay for more activists....
I remember,...there were almost a million in TAM square. How
many were there in Hong Kong demo ? A dozen...a hundred...
a thousands...ten thousands...??? WHY so few....so very, very
few ?
Not enough....not enough .. certainly not enough to
start an Arab Spring in China.
May be....just may be....the Chinese are smarter now...
better educated now.....are richer than American now.....
not so easily fooled the West now!!

you think so !

Truth is very elusive. Truth to one may NOT be truth to someone else.
