chance,

I hope you didn't read too much into what I was saying to Dr. Li. All I was expressing was that many countries, including China, the United States, Russia, etc. all have a common interest in combating terrorism. In my opinion, the conspiracy theory of the CIA and Britain trying to undermine the stability of China needs a lot more substantiatable evidence to be convincing.

By no means was I implying that the Lhasa riot was an act of terrorism. Like I said before, I don't have enough background information to make that kind of categorical characterization.

又是周末（明天复活节假期），允许自己上来感概一下。想到了Martin Niemoller牧师曾经写过一首诗：

First they came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me.

成为牧师之前，他在一次大战期间是德国U-boat的船长。

声音不能只有一个。捍卫和摧毁同样重要。

As for what's been happening in Tibet lately, my personal opinion is of course this is a well organized protest, no doubt about it. Peaceful or violent? Hard to define.

More than a dozen reporters from 6 different TV stations rushed to city right after the protest broke out on 10th Mar. For the first two days, the protest was indeed peaceful, and reporters were allowed to send their report back to HK. Naturally monks were arrested, for they were openly demanding independence; and to many officers' surprise, the arrest consequently attracted even more monks from different monasteries demanding the release of those monks in custody. At this point , it was like a pile of gunpowder.

Taking this very opportunity deliberately or just trying to dramatize the whole incident or spice it up, someone started spreading a rumor that some monks had already been killed without a fair trial and unfortunately some native Tibetans believed it. Revenge became an option now and like it or not some people did decide to get even and voice their anger. This was the turning point. Body clashes, robbing, burning, you name it, and all reporters from HK were sent home the next morning, tapes and electronic content were confiscated around mid of that night.

The local ruling authority made one big mistake, they forgot the power of communication and concentrated almost solely on cracking the whole thing down with warnings and more arrests. Even their warnings were often in Mandarin, ironically they failed to realized that a large percentage of rioters were actually native civilians who may not be able to perfectly understand the language.

The Chinese authority has been trying to bring social, economical and political changes into Tibet in recent years. Of course, most of us would think this is good. However, the authority didn't realized that apparently not everybody is ready to embrace a new way life, especially those religious aboriginals. They might prefer a spiritual life over material life which happens to be the very foundation of their believes. They might perceive the social, economical changes and the influx of commercial products as a deadly threat which would eradicate their culture and religion, and in the end would wipe out the entire nation as well as prevent them from achieving a blissful after life.

This is really a tragedy. I think both sides should be blamed for the loss of human lives.

我开始渐渐明白，为什么六百多万犹太人就那样被法西斯给活活烧死了。可耻啊！

明白的人应该不少，只是人性趋吉避凶，可以不表态最好。我也不希望明白了的人让自己曝露在危险的境地。所以，最好不要逼别人表态。

推荐你读一本书：Escape from Freedom (US), Fear of Freedom (UK) (1941), written by Erich Fromm。原文是德文，应该有法文版。
