Check NED’s China grants for Independent Chinese Pen Center and Minzhu Zhongguo magazine, which Liu heads.<br /><br />If Liu were American he would be in violation of FARA (Foreign Agent Registration Act). Ron Paul had once commented “What the NED does in foreign countries… would be rightly illegal in the United States”.bobby fletcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17988368193662201410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19492813.post-5299134437388803662010-10-11T06:52:33.342+01:002010-10-11T06:52:33.342+01:00It's great!

He, and everyone who signed the Charter 08, are in more danger than ever now.<br /><br />As Sean is saying, I'm not sure I would have their courage. We can publicize their actions. But we cannot protect them. And we're not going to jail with them.Claudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307495672130972111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19492813.post-70229871943718354122010-10-11T00:13:31.505+01:002010-10-11T00:13:31.505+01:00Repeating myself: I am not sure whether I'd ha...Repeating myself: I am not sure whether I'd have given shelter to a Jew 70 years ago.<br />This is why I do admire (the more) people like Liu Xiabo, his wife and many others in many other countries.Sean Jeatinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08978285783271305489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19492813.post-13958818601229882692010-10-10T23:47:55.222+01:002010-10-10T23:47:55.222+01:00It's amazing to me just how brave and resource...It's amazing to me just how brave and resourceful some people are.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747450215034568033noreply@blogger.com
