Highlighting Hypocrisy

IF you have been watching the news for the last week or so, you have seen the protestors in Europe and San Francisco. Admittedly there is nothing new or surprising about protestors in Europe or San Francisco, both places seem to have an excess of lunatics with more time on their hands than they know what to do with it. However this time the protestors are not objecting to the United States Military or to American foreign policy. They are not taking to the streets to demand civil rights for criminals that sneak across the border into our nation. They are not even demanding constitutionally guaranteed rights for Terrorists being held at Guatanamo Bay that are not in any stretch of the imingination covered by the US Constitution. Instead they are flaunting the law to protest the actions of the Communist Chinese Dictatorship. To be precise they are protesting the Chinese treatment of dissidents in Tibet and the political exile of the Dali Lama. They are trying to send a message to the Chinese Government by putting out the Olympic Torch.

In case you have not noticed the Olympics are being held in Beijing China this year. These ultra leftist lunatics are demanding freedom and civil rights for the people of Tibet. They are willing to attack the Police and commit thousands of dollars in property damage to send this message to the Communist Thugs that are cracking down on the Tibetan dissidents.

Maybe it is just me, but I find this very confusing. These are the same left wing lunatics that demand we withdraw our troops from Iraq BECAUSE the freedom of Iraqi citizens is not worth fighting for. WHY are the civil rights of Tibetan people more significant than the civil rights of Iraqi people? Are the executions of Tibetan dissidents more brutal than the execution of innocent Iraqis? In China they are throwing people out of the homes in order to make room for the Olympics, In Iraq the Insurgents (Iranian & Al Queda sponsored Terrorists) are slaughtering innocent people for being the wrong religion or for not supporting the Radical Islamic Insanity of Osama Bin Laden and others.

Either these very politically correct, very liberal, very "fashionable" protestors are telling us that Tibetan people matter more than Iraqi people OR they are just being hypocrites! Could it be they only oppose the freedom of the Iraqi people because President Bush is waging this war? I am trying hard but I just don't remember these kinds of protestors when President Clinton waged his wars in Bosnia and Somalia. Again I have to question why? Is it possible that Politics is driving their "anger" instead of humanity? Perhaps we can ask Senator Clinton as she avoids sniper fire or Senator Obamma in between Anti-American Sermons by his church.
