The United States Ambassador to China, Republican Nomination for the 2012 presidential election, Jon Huntsman,Jr was caught in Beijing while instigating and kept close watching on the process of so-called ' Jasmin revolution in China'.
He's face turned gray when caught by Chinese people lol!
Here's the translation

................................
imagine this my friend, the 1989 issue was based on the ignorance of youngsters , they put themselves in the risks(bloody leaders escaped) by believeing the instigation from VOA and today ,since VOA(Mandarin Channel) is gonna be turnoff,at the same time, U.S Secretary of State,Hilary Clinton claimed U.S agency will concentrade much more on cyber world, so this shit happens again. A man can't step into the same river,so that's why we try to lead people away from danger.
................................
Yes, we chinese know ourselves better than anyone else. Yes, the CCP is not perfect but we are not going to copy a western style. Absolute democracy will send China to hell! Maybe a future hybrid system.
.................................
Chinese do not want Westerners to incite protest in China, and to make China into a big mess like Iraq, Egypt, or Tunisia.
America is anti-China!
..........................
The only country that needs Jasmine Revolution is the US. It needs it so badly, because the govn't does not act in the interest of its citizens who are poor. It wants to pass budget deficit cuts that will ruin the lives of the poor further more. The whole world feels sorry for the US citizens because they haven't had a president for decades. All that they have gotten in the White House are puppets.
.........................
You secretary of the state is in charge of the the internet propaganda war; your ambassador went to the front line to inspect the operations. If the Chinese government does not respond in a commensurate way, it's disrepectful to the U.S., it's faux pas.
.........................
Thanks for exposing the truth....They want to destabilize China, divide it and rule. They are not Americans but globalists....They are using America as a tool to further their agenda.
They don't care about Americans nor about Chinese or any other country....Its all fake revolutions to further their evil agenda...if you love your family, atleast do an hour of research before coming out of your home for a revolution....do not believe what main stream media says...its all propaganda
...............................
I am a British Engineer with my own factory in China. I employ lots of Chinese. I live here with my family and speak Chinese.
I can tell you categorically that all suggestions that there will be any kind of revolution in China are completely ridiculous. The Chinese are extremely happy with the central Beijing Government. Sure they have complaints about rising house prices; food inflation; corrupt local officials etc.
Non-Chinese need to mind their own business and focus on home.
..............................
CNN and some media even put a photo with some Chinese holding Chinese signs. They reported that these are protesters with signs of slogans. These media reporters are the biggest liars. In fact, the photo is from another Chinese job fair with Chinese characters of jobs. Most Americans don't know Chinese language, that's why they can be easily misled and brainwashed
...............................
I am 100% sure that this Jasmine Revolution BULL SHIT was started on the internet by them western n Taiwanese spies!! I am Chinese and I take this attempt by the west as a direct threat to my country n my ppl! They forgot how the CHinese ppl came out in support of the 2008 Beijing Olympics!! They want to test and see if the Chinese ppl is still united! From their point of view is worth every attempt! A collapse of China would do much good for them!
LONG LIVE CHINA!

有可能“茉莉花”革命就是他策划的。洋人嘴里虽说明祖，心里却不怀好意。若心里不是怀有恶意，干吗急忙走开？Maybe the US diplomat was the one who came up with the "Jasmine" revolution to throw China into chaos. He looked "guilty" at being discovered and hastened a retreat.

China's official in charge of the state security apparatus has warned of the need to find new ways to defuse unrest.
Zhou Yongkang urged senior officials to improve "social management" and "detect conflicts and problems early on", the state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
He was speaking at a weekend seminar which took place as an internet campaign tried to provoke a "jasmine revolution" in China.
On Sunday, police dispersed a meeting of people who had answered the call.
In Shanghai, three men were detained. Leading human rights activists and lawyers were taken into police custody in the hours before the protests were due to begin.
But the call for mass participation in the demonstrations went largely unheeded.

My dear friend in China told me that the buzz on the streets in china is "Mao was right about Deng." That was a year ago, during Spring Festival.
http://www.smh.com.au/business/china-wont-take-the-cairo-route-20110214-1atq4.html
For 30 years the Communist Party has forged ideological unity around Deng Xiaoping's "two hands" formula of a market-based economy and uncompromising political control. When the contradictions inherent in this approach flared in 1989, Deng's solution was to defer any resolution and make the tensions worse. He massacred the students, rebuilt the party's security apparatus and then opened the market economy further.
The nepotism and corruption enjoyed by Deng's children may have been exceptional in 1989 but these days they are the norm for those born into the communist aristocracy. Whether you are in private equity, a sprawling state-owned enterprise or a village enterprise, the end game is the same: connect the right party official (or relative) with the market and turn public money into private gold.
Left and right agree that the Deng consensus is crumbling under the weight of inequality and corruption. But they cannot agree on whether to dismantle the ''open market'' or ''political control'' side of his legacy.
President Hu Jintao has squandered eight years in mortal combat with his predecessor. Powerful princelings have dealt themselves out of the debate by their kleptocratic hypocrisy. The country has reached gridlock. The party is entering a period of realignment and it is not clear what the new direction will be.
It is no coincidence that the only two obviously popular members of the Politburo are those who have come closest to challenging the Deng consensus. Much may depend on how the Mao-singing Chongqing party boss, Bo Xilai, and the democracy-talking Premier, Wen Jiabao, reach an accommodation.

The People Doth Not Protest

Perhaps China knows better, what to expect, when Tenzin Dorjee, executive director for Students for a Free Tibet called for "Tiananmen 2.0" last week. In fact, when I tried to comment on his post on Huffington Post, to site the fact that he had been with NED (privitized arm of the CIA) I was banned from commenting, censored, for three days! The Uighur sepertist group carries the Free Tibet propaganda on their site, so look for an attempt to instigate racial, ethnic and religious tensions, and planted thugs to stage "spontaneous" riots and "uprisings."
Folks, the more things change the more they remain the same. This administration has been blaming China for everything that's wrong with the US!
Based on the video that was secretly recorded, the journalists were not beaten, and Ambassador Huntsman is not being honest, and is behaving like a ringleader!

Here is more spin from Time...
http://globalspin.blogs.time.com/2011/02/28/in-chinas-jasmine-crackdown/
Wen is the official who serves at the humane face of the government. He visits with miners, farmers, AIDS patients and petitioners seeking justice. He is usually one of the first high-level officials to visit disasters scenes, like the 2008 Sichuan earthquake. He talks up political liberalization in interviews with the foreign press, and praises fallen reformers at home. Wen has done web chats with the Xinhua news service for a few years now, and yesterday's wasn't timed to coincide with the online call for Middle Eastern-style “jasmine rallies” in China. But it seems hardly a coincidence that the many of the topics he discussed—corruption, inflation, the wealth gap—are also issues raised by the anonymous protest organizers.
Here we have photos by a French Journalist...

Hu, Not Wen, Comes To Dinner
Chinese president Hu Jintao comes to the White House for a State Dinner.
If Obama and his administration believe this visit is all about "face" they are sadly mistaken.
As you can see from this video, China's issues are completely different from what the
US says are the issues. One problem the US has is trying to have "dialogue" with anothercountry by discussing onlt the US's concerns. China isn't buying that anymore. Here is the Q&A from the WSJ.....
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703551604576085514147521334.html
I wish to stress the following four points.
First, we should increase dialogue and contact and enhance strategic mutual trust.
Second, we should abandon the zero-sum Cold War mentality, view each other's development in an objective and sensible way, respect each other's choice of development path, and pursue common development through win-win cooperation.
Third, we should respect each other's sovereignty, territorial integrity and development interests and properly address each other's major concerns.
And fourth, we should make constant efforts to expand our converging interests so that China and the United States will be partners for cooperation in broader areas.
.....
The hidden part of an iceburg is the bigger part, that part being US Policy makers fear that any country whose economy begins to equal ours, could, in fact, develop a military equal to ours. The US actually has a secret policy addressing this idea in real terms.
No one should be surprised, then, to know the US has been encircling China for some time, now, as China's economy grows. Recently, we made a deal with Australia to station our Navy there as an "unofficial base" In addition, our buildup on our militarized Pacific islands is enough to worry any country, never mind the target of our paranoia, China.
Unfortunately, it seems that our propensity for spewing out "fishy" numbers, false data, misleading stats, etc, etc, etc, has come back to bite us. Or should I say, we have come to believe our own propaganda. Our "Hey, Mikey, lets blame China," strategy was fine as long as it was just domestic politics, but when Policy makers swallow this stuff whole, watch out.
You have all heard that the US blames China for it's huge trade deficite with the US.
THAT you understand, but have you actually looked at the numbers? Here is one example...
RE Trade imbalance, who would compare Pennsylvania's exports with the UK,
which is 5 times the size of Pennsylvania?
Well, that is just what the Government propagandists do when the report trade
deficits by country name, instead of size. Here is something you may enjoy...
Rank Trade Deficit by Country's Population
1. Ireland (5). . . . .- $4,585.41 per capita

What the US military really fears is an economically sound China...

Let us consider U.S. military doctrine in the ways it might affect relations with China. U.S. doctrine is clear and unchanging from one administration to the next since the end of the
Cold War. No country is to be allowed to come close to the U.S. in military might.
The most explicit statement of this came in the Defense Planning Guide for 1994-1999, a secret document prepared in 1992 and leaked to the New York Times and Washington Post. “Our first objective,” the highly classified document stated, “is to prevent the re-emergence of a new rival, either on the territory of the former Soviet Union or elsewhere, that poses a threat on the order of that posed formerly by the Soviet Union.”
From the outset Obama has left no doubt that the policy of permanent military superiority continues under him, proclaiming just after his election, on the occasion of appointing his “foreign policy team” of Clinton, Gates, and others that “we all share the belief we have to maintain the strongest military on the planet.”
Just last week Pentagon chief Robert Gates declared in a speech in Tokyo that the 47,000 troops in Japan were there to “keep China’s rising power in check” and so will remain for the indefinite future.
One must also conclude that the wars in Central Asia, the implantation of U.S. bases right on China’s back doorstep, and the courting of India over the past 10 years are also part of the “containment” policy, whatever other purposes those wars and bases may have. This dimension of the U.S. wars is rarely discussed in the mainstream or liberal press.
The implications of this doctrine are pernicious in the extreme.
First, the very threat encourages those who might want to be friends to arm themselves to preserve their independence and sovereignty.
Second, and much more important, military might grows out of economic power, as we have known at least since Thucydides. Thus the U.S. is declaring that China cannot have a total GDP that comes close to that of the U.S.
Let us consider the consequences of that. What would it mean for China if it achieved an aggregate GDP not larger that of the U.S. but simply the same size? Quite simply, since China has four or five times our population, it would mean that China would have a per capita GDP one fourth of ours – or about $10,000 a year. That means unending poverty for the Chinese people. Thus China is forced to choose between poverty or provoking the ire of the U.S.
Such is the iron logic of U.S. military policy.
And from a Chinese perspective we have
DOES CHINA’S RISE THREATEN
THE UNITED STATES?

In order for the Communist Party of China (CCP) to survive into the twenty-first century, it has realized that China must make peace with the international society and develop a harmonious society at home.
The Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixteenth Central Committee of the CPC passed the “Resolution of the CPC Central Committee on Major Issues Regarding the Building of a Harmonious Socialist Society” in October 2006, placing “building a harmonious society” atop its work agenda.
China has tried to make peace with neighboring countries and cooperate with
Western governments on a broad range of issues. Theoretically, the global village
is an international family. If every member of the family becomes strong, the
international family becomes stronger.
Every nation has its own national interests, so real conflicts between different nations are inevitable. Even now, there are intensive competitions among the democratic societies. Because China is a non-democratic country, China’s rise unavoidably causes other countries to worry.

Russia - China Oil Pipeline Opens
Happy New Year
The Russia - China Oil Pipeline opened...
This is a good example of how resolving border/territorial disputed peacefully leads to trade and increased prosperity for all sides. A win-win solution.
Here is an excellent review of what a border/territirial dispite comprises. But today, more than ever, trade, and the possibility of finding needed natural resources make the peaceful resolution of border disputes especially urgent.
We should ask ourselves, what is it that enables countries like China and Russia to resolve border disputes peacefully, while other countries cannot resolve border disputes, or actually go to war over disputed territory.

China Army Day August 1, 2010
Yesterday news media reported that Mao's grandson, Mao Xinyu, had been promoted to major general. But when did this promotion actually take place?
Mao Zedong founded the Army in 1927, and founded the Peoples Republic of China in 1949.
Perhaps some news media jumped the gun, reporting last September, that Mao had been promoted. However, it would appear that he needed to be in the Army for 10 years before he could be promoted.
Sightings of him wearing the major general uniform may help pin the actual day.
http://forum.globaltimes.cn/forum/showthread.php?p=43571
His promotion was announced formally on China's Army Day, Sunday August 1, 2010.
http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2009-09/29/content_8747855.htm
Mao said he has been in the army for more than nine years, and army rules stipulate that anyone in the army for 10 years is entitled to pursue the major general rank.
"If there's no exception, I could be granted the rank as early as next Army Day," he was quoted as saying.

The promotion was done before Sunday's Army Day but the specific date was not provided.

Mao, a researcher at the Academy of Military Sciences (AMS), was among other military officers who were promoted to higher ranks shortly before the 83rd anniversary of the founding of the army, Global Times reported
Bao Guojun, a spokesman at the AMS, confirmed Sunday that Mao was promoted from the rank of senior colonel to major general.

President Barack Obama Meets With Dalai Lama in the Map Room of the White House
NEWS: President Barack Obama meets with His Holiness the Dalai Lama in the Map Room of the White House. Feb 18, 2010 (Official White House Photo by Peter Sousa)(fair use claim)“The President met this morning at the White House with His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama. The President stated his strong support for the preservation of Tibet’s unique religious, cultural and linguistic identity and the protection of human rights for Tibetans in the People’s Republic of China. The President commended the Dalai Lama’s “Middle Way” approach, his commitment to nonviolence and his pursuit of dialogue with the Chinese government. The President stressed that he has consistently encouraged both sides to engage in direct dialogue to resolve differences and was pleased to hear about the recent resumption of talks. The President and the Dalai Lama agreed on the importance of a positive and cooperative relationship between the United States and China.”
Kalpen Modi
Associate Director
White House Office of Public Engagement
......................................
President George Bush, who had previously been with the CIA, was the first president to meet with the Dalai Lama. The Dalai Lama wrote a letter to President Clinton expressing his desire for independence for Tibet. Although he promised "Change we can believe in," Presiden Obama continuse the policy of the Bush-Clinton-Bush era. China, and Chinese have expressed their strongest disapproval of this meeting, and the US's continued interferrence in their domestic affairs. China also stated that this meeting has hurt the Chinese, and they would respond acordingly. Within hours of the meeting China summoned the US Ambassador and lodged their complaint.
This meeting comes on the heels of the announcement that the US would sell over $ 6 billion worth of arms to Taiwan. What is the official policy of the US to China, and is there secret policy?

Chinese React to Dalai Lama - Obama
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rswOSodMIQ&feature=PlayList&p=036FC13A2D23BB2B&index=24
......................................
This is the meeting that enthralled the world during the Olympic Winter Games, and which could not be more controversial. One reason is that the president claimed that he was meeting with the Dalai Lama not because he was a political figure, but "the" spiritual" leader of "the Tibetans." However, that statement belies the official relationship between the Government of the USA and the Dalai Lama. This relationship was put into writing in a formal letted sent by the American Ambassador to India to the Dalai Lama in 1951. (Yes, that is correct, 1951. )
"Your Holiness will understand, of course, that the readiness of the United States to render you the assistance and support outlined above is conditioned upon your departure from Tibet, upon your public disavoual of agreements concluded under duress between the representatives of Tibet and those of the Chinese Communists, and upon your continued willingness to cooperate in opposing communist agression.
An essential part of our cooperation would be a public announcement by the United States that it supports the position of Your Holiness as the head of an autonomous Tibet. The United States would also support your return to Tibet at the earliest practical moment as head of an autonomous [ , ] and non communist country. The position of the United States in this regard is fundamental and will not be affected by developments in Korea or by Chinese Communist...."
(signed by the US Ambassador to India in September 1951)
As you can see, the exerpt above shows that the US has supported the Dalai Lama's activities re China's Tibet since 1951. The offer was put into writing at the insistance of the Dalai Lama's elder brother, who was already a paid CIA asset. The agreement mentiond in the letter is the 17 point agreement, which certainly was not the result of duress, but must have alarmed the US, who had refused to recognise the PRC after Chaing Kai Shek lost the Chinese Civil War and fled to Taiwan. At that time McCarthyism was rampent in the US, and Eisenhower woried about the so called "Falling Dominoes" theory that "the communists wanted to take over the world," and countries would "fall" to communism, one after another, like falling dominoes.
However, the Dalai Lama did not take up the US on it's "offer" until 1959. Why? The Chinese arrived in Lahsa, peacefully, under the provisions of the 17 Point Agreement, yet today some still falsly accust the Chinese of "invading" Tibet! Why? What was really going on, what was really the relationship between the Dalai Lama and the US?
The Dalai Lama finally left Tibet in March 1959, two weeks lated China emancipated the over 6000 serfs and 106 house slaves of the Dalai Lama along with all the serfs and slaves in Tibet. Why didn't the Dalai Lama not emancipate his serfs and slaves himself? Why did he not keep faith with the 17 Point Agreement?

Although most folks refer to the Chinese following the "lunar" calandar, in fact, they follow the solar-lunar calandar. This is a 60 year cycle. Originally used by farmers to plan planting, the wonderful calandar, with famous ox pictures, is not unlike the Old Farmer's Almanac.
In two weeks the New year festival will conclude with the Lantern Festival, and young folks, who pine to be with their lovers, instead of family, will be together then.

Above is the TV special, from Beijing, look for more additions here, to be posted soon.
BaoBao, precious treasure, Children are considered, in China to be like flowers, they are to be treasured, as they are the China's future.
And above is the begining of the end of the propaganda proping up "Cash My Check," the US supported Green gang thug, who is responsible for dividing Taiwan from China, and who refused to fight the Japanese, leading, instead, the US funded Chinese Civil War, against his very own people.
Above, General Joe Stillwell in China, rare footage of the dixie Mission with Mao. Unfortunately, the US ignored Stillwell and the Foreign Ministry and others making the greatest US foreign policy mistake of the 20th century.
