Taiwanese Protest Chinese Law Authorizing the PRC to Crush Taiwan Militarily

Story dated 26 March 2005

"Hundreds of thousands of people chanting 'Oppose war, Love Taiwan' joined President Chen Shui-bian Saturday to protest against China's anti-secession law that sanctions the use of force against the island. . . China's state media quoted Chinese academics as saying the march could raise tensions and sour ties." I just love it when the dispensers of dogma try to play academic. It's so much fun. Okay, 'academics', if you really believe that this march could raise tensions and sour ties, and if you are rational academics, you have to examine all the factors. Ask yourselves (if your dogma will allow you), "What is it that prompted the march in the first place?" Could it be, perhaps, a direct response to your so-called 'People's Republic' passing a law authorizing it to conquer a territory and people whom have never been subject to its political or military jurisdiction? And if that is so, is it not, then the PRC's action that ultimately could be responsible for, as you say, any raise in tensions and souring of ties? Are you engaging in the thought-stopping techniques that your masters told you to use whenever faced with a rational argument that opposes state dogma?

When is the world going to notice that the People's Republic of China is an imperialist power?
