China executes 2 for deadly attack on police
That’s sick!
No regard for any kind of life! Especially since it’s the communist paramilitary police that started all this. The Genocide Olympics had already been tarnished by the way the communists have treated the Tibetan people on the Tibetan Plateau and else where. When China was given the opportunity of hosting the Olympics, one of the promises was to be more open and allow for more freedom of the Tibetan people and foreign journalists, well we can all see what happened with that.
The communist party imprisons any one who speaks up on truth regardless of being a Tibetan citizen or Chinese citizen. Talk about the true history of Tibet, go to prison, but I’ve never seen that on the Monopoly board.
China executed two members of a Muslim minority on Thursday after finding the men guilty of killing 17 police in an attack last year in the country’s far west that Beijing said was an attempt to sabotage the Beijing Olympics.
An overseas activist group called for an investigation of the men’s trial and allegations that they were tortured in custody.
The executions in China’s Xinjiang region came a day after two Tibetans were sentenced to death for arson during riots in Lhasa last spring, showing the government’s determination to tamp down unrest in regions that have chafed under its rule. An overseas group said security has been tightened in cities in Xinjiang with house-to-house searches of residents.
The attack on police last August in the city of Kashgar near the border with Pakistan and Afghanistan was the most brazen of several in the weeks around the Olympics, marring what the government and many Chinese hoped would be a showcase of China as a modern power.
Abdurahman Azat and Kurbanjan Hemit were convicted in December of ramming a truck into a group of police and then lobbing bombs at the officers and stabbing them on Aug. 4, four days before the start of the games, according to the court. [read more]
