Well, here goes.
I have got to hand it to Sec. of State Hillary and President Obama, both showed reasonable concern about the human rights reaction to the Secretary's trip to China. It seems that this is a country that absolutely has to live in a fantasy world of "Ï am only what I want you to perceive that I am". So much for what is actually going on. Then, the State Dept. 2008 Report on Human Rights Worldwide came out and it is really good. It tells it like it is and does not play politics with human rights, which is a good way to go. China has always played politics with people's human rights, especially the Tibetan issues. This report pointed out quite clearly that these Chinese people really live on another planet from us and on that planet there are no human rights.
Then, I am going to put my two cents in about the Tribunal Trials. It seems that there is reasonable concern over the fact that there are apparently some 192 Top Administrators of Concentration Camps/Torture Centers under the Khymer Rouge that are not a part of the Crimes Against Humanity Tribunal. One has every right to ask "why". This issue is raising a lot of flags in a lot of places and I think it behooves the players to the trail to deal with the issue is an open and transparent fashion. Not a single name of these other 192 has ever been released to the public to my knowledge.
More later.
