Maurice,
Precisely, you are
sport-on.........which is why, we must force for
Global dialogue, where people of the
world must open up to discuss
sense, with lead questions "Where are we
headed to"? and How can
we do better than what we are presently
engaged with? Realizing
that, all of us have reached dead-end, on top of a mountain cliff that
is about to cramble down........or on a
plane that is out of gas and is
about to nose dive...........I mean quick thinking capable to
save a
situation...........We are in a state of
mind that have no minutes to
wonder about how much you have in the
bank, or even having the
luxury of time to look for your
briefcase with fundamental document.
What you have in your hands is a spilt seconds to make serious life
saving judgement then take a
leap..........
This is the position where we, the good
people of the world are.
This is why, it is not a Racial, Tribal, or one Nationality problem,
but a collective problem requiring people of the world including
Chinese people themselves who are challenging their own bad
rulership with complaints that it
is marred with numerous injustices
with violations of rights including environmental pollutions and
degradation.........not caring even for value of nature
itself.........
The only person who qualifys and is
capable of heading this team
in a bipartisan manner, to evade looming serious world war with
catastrophic economic collapse, is none other than His Excellency
President Obama wuod alego.........
It is critical that we must dialogue
Thura........ for the sake of
the world.
We can do better people, I believe we can do better........

Darfur - China's Secret War (Full Documentary)
Published on May 14,
2013
2008 BBC Documentary.
Next month's Beijing summer games have been dubbed the 'genocide Olympics' by Hollywood campaigners who accuse China of supplying the Sudanese government with arms to enable it to wage a campaign of violence in Darfur. Steven Spielberg recently cut his ties with the Olympics over the issue.
Now, after months investigating China's covert arms trade, Hilary Andersson provides the first evidence of how China is arming Sudan's killers, all for the sake of oil. A Panorama team follows a trail through Chad and Darfur, tracking down Chinese military trucks which, with mounted Chinese guns, had recently been used against civilians. Panorama also establishes that China is currently training fighter pilots who fly Chinese built and maintained fighter jets that have been used in recent attacks in a conflict which has now cost an estimated 300,000 lives.

China: End Involuntary Rehousing,
Relocation of Tibetans
Published on Jun 26, 2013
(New York, June 27, 2013) -- The
Chinese government is subjecting millions of Tibetans to a policy of mass
rehousing and relocation that radically changes their way of life, and about
which they have no say, Human Rights Watch said in a new report published today.
Since 2006, under plans to "Build a New Socialist Countryside" in Tibetan areas, over two million Tibetans have been "rehoused" -- through government-ordered renovation or construction of new houses -- in the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR), while hundreds of thousands of nomadic herders in the eastern part of the Tibetan plateau have been relocated or settled in "New Socialist Villages."

Afua Hirsch reports on Ghana's gold rush in a film that discovers how Chinese immigrants are profiting from industrialising the country's small-scale mining industry. She sees for herself that, for the many locals who chance losing life and limb for a piece of the same pie, the risks are rarely worth it, and explores where the responsibility for regulating this industry lies.

Culture is the soul of a nation. This spiritual factor is as important to mankind as physical factors such as race and land.
Cultural developments define the history of a nation』s civilization. The complete destruction of a national culture leads to the end of the nation. Ancient nations who had created glorious civilizations were considered to have vanished when their cultures disappeared, even though people of their races may have survived. China is the only country in the world whose ancient civilization has been passed down continuously for over 5,000 years. Destruction of its traditional culture is an unforgivable crime..........

Rare Earth Minerals Turn Villages to
Ruins
Baotou, Inner Mongolia is China's
largest
rare earth mineral production base.
Although it is a precious mineral resource,
rare earth imposes great dangers of pollution.
Recently, French media reported from Baotou.
Entitled "In China, rare earths are killing villages",
the report highlighted massive environmental pollution.
It revealed the impact of the production of rare earth
minerals on local residents, animals and land.
The following is our report.
French media 'Le Monde' reported from Baotou, stating
that by aerial viewpoint, it looks like a large lake,
fed by numerous tributaries. On site, it is actually
an opaque discharge covering an area of 10 km2.
Surrounding the industrial plants producing 17 minerals
are reject waste waters loaded with chemicals.
There are no fish or algae
The Le Monde article introduced that rock from Bayan obo
rare earth ore mine, located 120 kilometers away, are sent here for treatment.
The concentration of rare earth in the rocks is very low and
must be separated and purified by hydrometallurgical processes and acid baths.
In the effluent basin are exist all sorts of toxic chemicals
and radioactive elements such as thorium.
Ingestion of these toxins causes cancer
of the pancreas, lung and blood.
A pungent odor exudes within radius of 10 miles.
Local villagers have been suffering from cancer.
Rows of brown houses in the village
have been reduced to rubble.
Sichuan environmentalist Chen Yunfei indicates
that rare earth refining process causes great environmental pollution and destruction.
People are unaware of the specific dangers of this project,
and the specialists involved in the decision-making.
Chen Yunfei: "Some officials only work on the image projects
for profit. They relocate once the money has been made.
Some officials collude with the business, caring about
nothing but profit, leaving the mess for the public."
According to local residents, Baotou
used to be a vast grassland.
In 1958 the state enterprise Baotou Iron and Steel
Company began producing rare earth production.
By the end of 1980, locals found that the plant was in trouble.
Last year, China Environment News reported that
Baotou Iron and Steel Group's tailing dam leakage has caused damage to five surrounding villages.
It has affected more than 3000 farmers,
and ruined more than 3,295 Acres of farmland.
Ma Peng, former Director of the Baotou Rare Earth
Research Institute, indicated that
due to the lack of a barrier below the tailing dam, the mining
waste is directly discharging into the Yellow River.
The discharge is at a rate of 300m per year.
The residents also said that further pollution has been
caused by other industries and thermal power plants.
These industries followed rare earth production
by the Baotou Iron and Steel Company.
Local residents have to breathe air saturated with sulfuric
acid and coal dust. Coal dust is airbourne around the houses.
Cows, horses, chickens and goats
are being killed by these poisons.
The locals have fled, and Xinguang Sancun village has now
decreased from 2000 villagers to 300. Every family is hit with illness.
After 20 years of complaints to the local government, the
villagers have finally won promises of financial compensation.
These have only been partially fulfilled.
Miss Hao, a resident of Baotou: "We all know.
The government is too dark.
No one cares about the people, whether
they live or die, not to mention the pollution."
For many years, there have been calls for attention
for the issue of Baotou tailing dam discharging thorium radiation to Baotou and into the Yellow River.
The hazards and pollution caused by the Baotou
tailing dam have never been effectively alleviated.
Environmentalist Chen Yunfei: "This is an investment
that has hurt several generations.
It has polluted the whole environment.
This high cost investment ought to be condemned.
Our future generations are going to suffer for it."
China Environment News indicated that Baotou
is located in the stratum fracture zone.
In the event of a major earthquake or large-scale rainfall,
the rupture of the tailing dam will threaten the surrounding
five villages, as well as tens of thousands of lives
of the Baotou Iron and Steel workers.
If the tailings flow into the Yellow River,
it will cause serious pollution to the river.

Judy,
The Chinese are not
just grabbing wealth out of Africa, they also own most of the $16 Trillion of
the US foreign debt !!!! It seems like the US too has to start worrying about
the Chinese. If they call in this loan and the US can not pay, they may
repossess the State of California.
