Perhaps it goes like this: “craven servility – butt kissing– realpolitik – ethics”. And that seem to be the extent of today’s morals, from politicians, officials on to the masses, no one is willing to take a stand and actually stand up for believes, morals or a just cause. This is a regime that has just massacred at least 200 Tibetans in an illegally occupied country, and with still thousands missing one wonders what the fate of the missing Tibetans are. Perhaps they’re fodder for this depraved regimes’ lucrative organ transplant program they’ve been running so successfully for the last many years. And yes, the world will go to Beijing schmoozing with the likes of Hu Jintao who is very well remembered in Tibet as the Butcher of Lhasa, an accomplished mass murderer in his own right.
