Like Tibetans: <China only wants now to aggregate Chinese..> and Uighurs, and Taiwanese and a great variety of others of dubious similarity. What is your definition of "Chinese"? Do they have a mark on their forehead or something? What does "aggregate" mean? In concrete, the aggregate is little stones of all sorts of sizes which are mixed into the slurry and poured into shape and then frozen forever into a solid unimaginative matrix. It looks as though the Beijing megalomaniacs want to force billions of people [so far over 1 billion] into obedience to the kleptocratic masters. Mqurice

China only wants now to aggregate Chinese.. IMO, I believe Bejing wants to aggregate resources, no matter which ethnicity currently controls them. I also believe they still want to possess "buffer states" on their borders in order to control the influence of political ideas and economic ideals. But the internet and other sources of information are flanking their best efforts to preserve this agenda. I look at how foolishly China has responded to the Nobel Prize fiasco. Their decision to jail Liu Xiaobo to 11 years clinched his nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize: guardian.co.uk Not only do they arbitrarily place Liu Xiaobo's wife under house arrest so she couldn't travel to accept the award on her husband's behalf. Then they call western media "clowns" for covering the story. abcnews.go.com Instead, they create their own Peace prize.. Shades of Adolf Hitler, who did the very same thing. I fear that Bejing is losing control and making very poor political decisions. They know they are on the wrong side of global opinion, but instead of conceding this, they are "doubling down" and making the situation political worse for themselves. Hawk
