I never noticed the peace/war conflict....bizarre isn't it. Or is it. Yes…I noticed that Guardian article and thought it really odd in terms of their apparent support for the ‘coalition’.

Thus, on fakes, that area is no longer necessarily smooth. If you compare the roughness of the fake with the ridges of a real bill, the difference are obvious. However, if you're just checking for roughness with nothing else to compare it to, it is easy to be fooled. Some fakes now have an abrasive added to the area of Mao’s jacket.

]]> Comment on Separatism and Tibet by Marko http://www.blackandwhitecat.org/2008/04/01/separatism-and-tibet/#comment-117691 Marko Tue, 06 Apr 2010 11:05:32 +0000 http://www.blackandwhitecat.org/2008/04/01/separatism-and-tibet/#comment-117691 This is indeed a helpful article. The real truth is certainly somewhere between PRC and DL truths, but not necessarily in the middle. I am however disappointed by comments from PRC apologist here. Why bringing up US or Canada examples? Most of us, people concerned about the future of Tibet, are neither American nor Canadian. Moreover, if you are looking for really bad examples, try France. Their minorities - Basque and Breton - have absolutely no rights, even worse than China. And why not bringing up good examples - like Spain - instead? Spain allowed three regions with Basque majority to form Basque country with broad authonomy and self-rule, in which Basque language is official language. Despite the fact that some Basque extremists are laying bombs around. Similar development is going on in Catalonian-Valencian areas. Great Britain is also a good example. Contrary to the popular belief, Welsh, Scots and Northern Irish (where protestants compose majority of population) have a broad autonomy and self-rule. Much broader than the autonomy of TAR.
