While the imagery is powerful yes, anytime images of this sort are used to promote a cause it makes me suspicious as this is similar to the kind of shock-graphics that anti-abortion protesters use to make emotional points that are not necessarily logically supportive of their legislative positions (AKA limbic-hijack).

I'm more in favor of the climbing the Golden Gate bridge and unfurling a banner approach.

Tanek - I think this is a bit more important than that silly anti-abortion stuff. The effects of the Chinese government on an entire nation and its residual effects on Taiwan and internal dissent impacts millions of people - abortion is such a ludicrous topic of unimortance to the world that it's a no brainer why this should garner attention over the other. The use of imagery is the sole reason such a site as this even exists.

Everyone is spewing bull. The fact that North America thinks they know anything about China and Tibet is ridiculous. It's similar to when Africans thought that Quebec should have split from Canada.
People need to get the REAL facts straight before they start bellowing facts of what they THINK is happening.

And for anyone who thinks that boycotting China (are you serious?) would be a good thing for us, your economy will completely fail.
RESEARCH. It's as if people have never heard of the concept.
