Sorry but it's Halloween so i cant help it. That o-am-so-worthy report from HongKong about 3 beanbags (omg! the evil bastards and they made steet fighters kneel with hands up text book style!) narrowly missing nearby reporters made me laugh. I mean given the number of 'reporters' in Hongkong protest videos (outnumbering often the police and the fighters), a drunken bat playing reporter dart couldnt help but score a bullseye im Hongkong!

Am sorry. But seeing iraq, chile, and having been in Barcelona and London recently, am sorely tempted to say...get some perspectives...Destroy Chinese cities if u think u r hard enough, over. the. border. not hongkong, o please brave warirors. ;)

And yes am paid 50cent for this and I love it!

Here are a couple points I thought were interesting..

-- Keeping the armed forces under the Party's command and ensuring that the people's armed forces are completely loyal to the Party and the people so as to safeguard China's sovereignty, security and development interests;

*interesting they would even say that. Exposing the potential that they do NOT have control just seems odd for an authoritarian state. I would expect praise and uplifting of the military while maintaining ruthless subjegation of its leaders.

-- Upholding the principle of "one country, two systems," maintaining lasting prosperity and stability in Hong Kong and Macao, and promoting the peaceful reunification of China;

*promote peace, enforce through violence?

-- Adhering to the unity of independence and self-reliance and opening up to the rest of the world, taking an active part in global governance, and continuing to make contributions to the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.

* This particular line is troubling, "continuing to make contributions to the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.".. They use the same type of language for Uighers. Its not participating in a global community, but building of a community with a shared future. Using facts to find truth, this means global ideological control over every community, to create a shared future, one where everyone is respected, but especially the CCP - which means no one else has a say.
