Riots in Western China Amid Ethnic Tension
By EDWARD WONG
BEIJING — At least 1,000 rioters clashed with the police on Sunday in a regional capital in western China after days of rising tensions between Muslim Uighurs and Han Chinese, according to witnesses and photographs of the riot.
The rioting broke out Sunday afternoon in a large market area ofUrumqi, the capital of the vast, restive desert region of Xinjiang, andlasted for several hours before riot police officers and paramilitaryor military troops locked down the Uighur quarter of the city. Therioters threw stones at the police and set vehicles on fire, sendingplumes of smoke into the sky, while police officers used fire hoses andbatons to beat back rioters and detain Uighurs who appeared to beleading the protest, witnesses said.
At least 3 Han Chinese and one police officer were killed in therioting and 20 were injured, according to Xinhua, the official newsagency. Dozens of Uighur men were led into police stations with theirhands behind their backs and shirts pulled over their heads, onewitness said. Early Monday, the local government announced a curfewbanning all traffic in the city until 8 p.m.
The riot was the largest ethnic clash in China since the Tibetan uprising of March 2008,and perhaps the biggest protest in Xinjiang in years. Like the Tibetanunrest, it highlighted the deep-seated frustrations felt by some ethnicminorities in western China over the policies of the Communist Party.
Many Uighurs, a Turkic-speaking Muslim group, resent rule by the HanChinese, and Chinese security forces have tried to keep oil-richXinjiang under tight control since the 1990s, when cities there werestruck by waves of protests, riots and bombings. Last summer, attacks on security forces took place in several cities in Xinjiang; the Chinese government blamed separatist groups.
Early Monday, Chinese officials said the latest riots were startedby Rebiya Kadeer, a Uighur human rights advocate who had beenimprisoned in China and now lives in Washington, Xinhua reported. Aswith the Dalai Lama, the Tibetan spiritual leader, Chinese officials often blame Ms. Kadeer for ethnic unrest; she denies the charges.
The clashes on Sunday began when the police confronted a protestmarch held by Uighurs to demand a full government investigation of abrawl between Uighur and Han workers that erupted in Guangdong Provinceovernight on June 25 and June 26. The brawl took place in a toy factoryand left 2 Uighurs dead and 118 people injured. The police laterarrested a bitter ex-employee of the factory who had ignited the fightby starting a rumor that 6 Uighur men had raped 2 Han women at the worksite, Xinhua reported.
There was also a rumor circulating on Sunday in Urumqi that a Hanman had killed a Uighur in the city earlier in the day, said AdamGrode, an English teacher living in the neighborhood where the riotingtook place.
“This is just crazy,” Mr. Grode said by telephone Sunday night.“There was a lot of tear gas in the streets, and I almost couldn’t getback to my apartment. There’s a huge police presence.”
Mr. Grode said he saw a few Han civilians being harassed by Uighurs.Rumors of Uighurs attacking Han Chinese spread quickly through parts of Urumqi, adding to the panic. A worker at the Texas Restaurant, a few hundred yards from the site of the rioting, said her manager had urged the restaurant workers to stay inside. Xinhua reported few details of the riot on Sunday night. It said that “an unknown number of people gathered Sunday afternoon” in Urumqi, “attacking passers-by and setting fire to vehicles.”
Uighurs are the largest ethnic group in Xinjiang but are a minority in Urumqi, where Han Chinese make up more than 70 percent of the population of two million or so. The Chinese government has encouraged Han migration to the city and other parts of Xinjiang, fueling resentment among the Uighurs. Urumqi is a deeply segregated city, with Han Chinese there rarely venturing into the Uighur quarter.
The Uighur neighborhood is centered in a warren of narrow alleyways,food markets and a large shopping area called the Grand Bazaar or theErdaoqiao Market, where the rioting reached its peak on Sunday.
Mr. Grode, who lives in an apartment there, said he went outsidewhen he first heard commotion around 6 p.m. He saw hundreds of Uighursin the streets; that quickly swelled to more than 1,000, he said.
Police officers soon arrived. Around 7 p.m., protesters beganhurling rocks and vegetables from the market at the police, Mr. Grodesaid. Traffic had ground to a halt. An hour later, as the riot surgedtoward the center of the market, troops in green uniforms and full riotgear showed up, as did armored vehicles. Chinese government officialsoften deploy the People’s Armed Police, a paramilitary force, to quellriots.
By midnight, Mr. Grode said, some of the armored vehicles had begun to leave, but bursts of gunfire could still be heard.

The riot was
[*]the largest ethnic clash in China since the Tibetan uprising of March 2008,
Notes: ===>>> this is to reassert the definition of the riotas "ethnic clash" that the author had put down at the very opening sentence and at the same time exclude other definitions, such as an act of terror, a provocation to test how far the police would put up with their violence and aggression.In the future when this riot became history, people who research for today's western newspaper, they willsee everywhere defining the riot as "ethnic clash" and rule out other explanation to today's history.This is how they rob China's right toexplain Chinese history !

Notes:
[*]the excuse of rioting from a bunch of outlaws who happened to be Uighurs has been polished by the author in a fancy manner>>>>"deep-seated frustrations felt by some ethnic minorities in western China over the policies of the Communist Party. [*]Those were a bunch of outlaws who happened to be Uighurs suddenly became "some ethnic minorities in western China" [*]and their acts of terror is actually not caused by their nature of evilness but it is associated with "the deep-seated frustrations"....

Many Uighurs, a Turkic-speaking Muslim group, resent rule by the HanChinese, and Chinese security forces have tried to keep oil-richXinjiang under tight control since the 1990s, when cities there werestruck by waves of protests, riots and bombings. Last summer, attacks on security forces took place in several cities in Xinjiang; the Chinese government blamed separatist groups.
Notes:
(a)
[*]Many Uighurs, a Turkic-speaking Muslim group, resent rule by the HanChinese, It is politically correct to say "Many Uighurs resent rule by the Han Chinese"
because
how many is "Many" ?Their is no law to supervise such kind of statement.
[*]However, think it over ! Why did the author emphasize that the Uighurs are "Turkic-speaking" "Muslim group"?
That's because heintended to provoke the Turks and the Muslims around the world to standup against China !This can be proven through another article in thePhiladelphia Inquirer,written by the director of the NED (NationalEndowment for Democracy), Mr. Moisés Naím.
Muslim world's rage missing over Uighurs' plight
(b)
[*]and Chinese security forces have tried to keep oil-richXinjiang under tight control since the 1990s, when cities there werestruck by waves of protests, riots and bombings.
Note:now he used "oil-rich" to describe Xinjiang because he wanted to the readers to have an impression that this OIL is the reason that the Chinese seucrities forces had tried to keep Xinjiang "under tight control since the 1990swhen cities there were struck by waves of protests, riots and bombings."
[*]Last summer, attacks on security forces took place in several cities in Xinjiang; the Chinese government blamed separatist groups.
This sentence is to show readers that
[*]not only in the 1990s but even last year, there were attacks on security forces took place in several cities in Xinjiang
The author said that "the Chinese government blamed separatist groups" (for these attacks. ) The same author also covered the attack on security forces in Kashgar last year. In his report last year, he claimed that there were tourists witnessing the attack was done by a uniformed man IMPLYING that it's Chinese security force attacking Chinese security force and blamed it on the separatist group.Since he had such a report a year ago, now he could use his own article to emphasize that for riots and attacks, "the Chinese government blamed separatist groups".The author cleverly avoided citing the Kumming bus-bombing but chose the Kashgar attack as an illustration.He knew by heart that for the Kumming bus-bombing, the terrorist group - the East Turkistan Islamic Party had claimed responsibility immediately after the attack but interestingly, the Chinese government expressed doubt on such claim.

[*]Early Monday, Chinese officials said the latest riots were started by Rebiya Kadeer, a Uighur human rights advocate who had been imprisoned in China and now lives in Washington, Xinhua reported.
Comments:
The Chinese officials didn't say that the latest riot were started by Rebiya Kadeer and I am sure that Xinhua wouldn't report Rebiya Kadeer as "a Uighur human rights advocate" !The author is forcing his own choice of words into Xinhua's mouth !
Let's check out the original version as below :
[*]Xinhua said that"Evidence showed the riot was organized. It was instigated and masterminded by the World Uyghur Congress led by Kadeer, the sources said. "
[*]and Xinhua also said thatBorn in Xinjiang in 1951, Kadeer, a former businesswoman in China, made a fortune illegally from the 1980s on through tax evasion and fraud.
She was sentenced to an eight-year imprisonment in 2000 on charges of illegally disclosing state secrets, and was released on bail in 2005 to seek medical treatment in the United States.
She immediately got involved with overseas terrorists, separatists and extremists forces there, according to Wang Lequan, Communist Party chief of Xinjiang.
Kadeer once claimed the Congress would plot to sabotage activities marking the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China this year.
Touted as the"mother of Uygur people" by East Turkestan terrorists, Kadeer constantly visited Germany and other countries in northern Europe to build support.
"Kadeer's credentials got the recognition of overseas East Turkestan forces, and her experience is also an advantage to be capitalized on by Western anti-Chinese forces," said Ma Dazheng, director of the Xinjiang development research center of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
Pan Guang, an expert in international affairs and director of the Shanghai International Studies Center, said, "The East Turkestan terrorist forces portray Kadeer as a figure comparable to the Dalai Lama to promote her international influence."
"Actually, they just want to follow the road of the Dalai Lama to put the so-calledXinjiang issue into the international spotlight," he said.
Evidence shows Rebiya Kadeer behind Urumqi riot: Chinese gov't
BEIJING, July 8(Xinhua) -- The separatist World Uyghur Congress led by Rebiya Kadeerwas behind the deadly July 5 Urumqi riot, in which at least 156 peopledied and more than 1000 were injured, sources with the government said.
Evidence showed the riot was organized. It was instigated and masterminded by the World Uyghur Congress led by Kadeer, the sources said.
The Congress used the June 26 factory brawl between Uygur and Han ethnic workers in Guangdong Province, in which two Uygurs died, to create chaos.
On July 1, the Congress held a special meeting, plotting to instigate unrest by sending messages via the Internet, telephones and mobile phones.
On July 4, some people inside the country began to send out a flood of online posts encouraging people to go to the Renmin Square in Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, to protest on July 5 to support separatists abroad.
At 1:06 a.m. July5, police in Urumqi were tipped off that some people were putting out illegal information calling for an illegal gathering at Renmin Squareat 7 p.m. July 5.
According to recordings of calls, at 11 a.m. July 5, Kadeer said, as she called her younger brother in Urumqi, "A lot of things have happened, and we allknow something might happen in Urumqi tomorrow night."
On July 6, Kadeer held an emergency meeting with some senior members of the Congress to make plans to further stir up both domestic and overseas demonstrations and to call for intervention from foreign governments and human rights institutions.
Their schemes were immediately materialized in the attack on China's consulate in Munich, Germany, on Monday morning and the violence done by over 150separatists in front of China's embassy in the Netherlands that afternoon.
All these facts pointed to Kadeer, whose personal experience bore further evidence of her splittist connection.
Kadeer was elected in 2006 to be the chairwoman of the Congress, which was founded in Munich in 2004.
The Congress, an organization alleging to represent the ultimate interests of East Turkestan people, is wholly dedicated to masterminding secessionist activities in the name of human rights and democracy, the government said.
Born in Xinjiangin 1951, Kadeer, a former businesswoman in China, made a fortune illegally from the 1980s on through tax evasion and fraud.
She was sentenced to an eight-year imprisonment in 2000 on charges of illegally disclosing state secrets, and was released on bail in 2005 to seek medical treatment in the United States.
She immediately got involved with overseas terrorists, separatists and extremists forces there, according to Wang Lequan, Communist Party chief of Xinjiang.
Kadeer onceclaimed the Congress would plot to sabotage activities marking the 60thanniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China this year.

Note :
Using one sentence to decriminalize the Dalai Lama and Rebiya Kadeer from the crime of their separatist movement activities which include beating, smashing,killing, looting, arson, the author tried to mislead the readers to believe that the riots have nothing to do with theseso-called "spiritual leaders"

---------------------------------------------------------------
The author was shifting the responsibility of the clashes to the police.He was ridiculing himself by implying that if the police didn't try to disband these unlawful protesters who demonstrated without applying for a rallying permit, all the brutal activities of these outlaws against innocent unarmed Han civilians & passes-by wouldn't happen.And the arson, and the looting, and the smashing, and the many more.... all of them were the police's faults !
Interestingly, until now, I have never seen any western media displaying any pictures relevant to this "peaceful demonstration"though it had been widespreadbeing held by most of the western media as an immediate cause of the clash.I couldn't find it from the home site of the World Ughur Congress either.
While the World Uighur Congress and its western media backers couldn't show any supportive evidence to prove that the demonstration was a "peaceful" one to start,the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman had argued in high tone that "VIOLENCE IN URUMQI NOT A PEACEFUL PROTEST."
FM spokesman: Violence in Urumqi not a peaceful protest
FM: Sunday violence in Xinjiang is not a peaceful protest, but "an evil killing, fire setting and looting."·Anybody calling the violence a peaceful protest is to turn black into white to mislead the public.More than 150 people died and other 1,000-odd injured following the riot Sunday evening in Urumqi.
BEIJING,July 7 (Xinhua) -- The Sunday violence in Urumqi was "an evil killing,fire setting and looting", said Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang on Tuesday. "Anybody calling the violence a peaceful protest is trying to turn black into white in an attempt to mislead the public," Qin told a regular press conference.
More than 150 people died and a further 1,000-odd were injured in the riot Sunday evening in Urumqi,capital of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
Qin said this was an action born out of the fear of Xinjiang's social progress, solidification and prosperity.
"The violence is a preempted,organized violent crime. It is instigated and directed from abroad, and carried out by outlaws in the country," Qin said, noting that the evidence was irrefutable and conclusive.
Xinjiang police said Monday they had evidence that separatist World Uyghur Congress leader Rebiya Kadeer masterminded the riot.
Rebiya Kadeer, a former businesswoman in China, was detained in1999 on charges of harmingnational security. She was released on bail on March 17, 2005 to seek medical treatment in the United States.
"Rebiya Kadeer is also involved in serious economic crime," Qin said, noting that the Chinese government, out of humanitarian consideration, allowed her to remain out of custody and obtain medical treatment, and she had promised not to engage in actions endangering the country's security before her departure.
A series of facts in recent years proved that she was totally aliar. She took separatist actions at all times when living abroad, Qin said, urging related countries to see clearly the essence of Eastern Turkestan groups, and not to extend sympathy or support to them in any form.
According to a local official, the Chinese authorities had evidence that Rebiya Kadeer used the Internet and other means of communication to mastermind the riot in Xinjiang.
Internet was cut in parts of Urumqi following the deadly riot to prevent violence from spreading.
Qin said this measure was taken in order to deal with the incident and safeguard local stability.
After the Sunday riot, The Xinjiang judicial departments arrested some suspects in order to safeguard the normal life of the local people.
"What they have done was justified, and any country could take the same measures while facing this violence," Qin said.
He also said the China, by rule of law, would not wrong one innocent person, nor setting free any evil one.
Qin refuted the accusation by some human rights organizations criticizing Chinese government's measures to deal with Xinjiang violence.
"Those organizations view the case with bias, and their conclusion could not objective undoubtedly, and it stands in the opposite direction of ethics, laws and all Chinese people's minds," he said.
Foreign journalists, about 60 in number, were in Xinjiang on a reporting trip arranged by the Information Office of the State Council, the Chinese Cabinet.
"China takes an open and transparent principle on the news report, and offer active help and convenience for the foreign and Chinese journalists to cover news in Xinjiang," Qin said.
A press center had been established in Urumqi, with service offered by officials there, Qin said, hoping that the media would fairly report the truth.
Qin also reminded the reporters to abide by related regulations and laws, and take care of their own security.

[*]
There was also a rumor circulating on Sunday in Urumqi that a Hanman had killed a Uighur in the city earlier in the day, said Adam Grode, an English teacher living in the neighborhood where the rioting took place.
The author tried to decriminalize the Uighurs' act of violence by borrowing the mouth of an assumed "road-side witness", Mr. Adam Grode, who according to the report was "an English teacher living in the neighborhood where the rioting took place."to convince the readers with such a detail as " there was a rumor circulating on Sunday in Urumqi that a Han man had killed a Uighur in the city earlier in theday."This unheard "rumor" is solely sourced by the New York Times.It seemed that only Mr. Adam Grode knew about this "rumor" sofar because I have never read about the same claim in any other sources of news.
[*]“This is just crazy,” Mr. Grode said by telephone Sunday night.“There was a lot of tear gas in the streets, and I almost couldn’t getback to my apartment. There’s a huge police presence.” v.s.
[*]Mr. Grode said he saw a few Han civilians being harassed by Uighurs.Rumors of Uighurs attacking Han Chinese spread quickly through parts ofUrumqi, adding to the panic.
What a contrast !
Comparing "a huge police presence"with " a few Han civilians being harassed by Uighurs" !
Note :
according to the "witness", they're only being "harassed" , not "attacked", not "assaulted" and not "killed" !
How can the readers not be convinced the Chinese police was using excessive force upon the civilians, eh ?
[*]Rumors of Uighurs attacking Han Chinese spread quickly through parts of Urumqi, adding to the panic.
Here the "witness" shed light on another piece of details , which interestingly was also a "rumor"!
While the previous "rumor" was about a Han man had killed a Uighur ,
now the witness had another "rumor" to tell the New York Times journalist that
it was about the Uighurs attacking Han Chinese.
Note :
According to this "roadside witness" - Mr. Adam Grode,the Han Chinese were being "harassed" by the Uighurs.
How dare somebody spread the news about the Uighurs attacking Han Chinese ?
That got to be a rumor !
Indeed, that was a rumor,at least,to Mr. Adamn Grode's judgment, right ?
[*]Xinhua reported few details of the riot on Sunday night. It said that “an unknown number of people gathered Sunday afternoon” in Urumqi, “attacking passers-by and setting fire to vehicles.”
Note:
Here, the author appeared to be a bit annoyed by the simplicity of the Xinhua's report which cautiously didn't use any unverified roadside information like the New York Times did irresponsibly, driving the readers to any unnecessary misjudgments.

Comments:
[*]Uighurs are the largest ethnic group in Xinjiang but are a minority in Urumqi, where Han Chinese make up more than 70 percent of the population of two million or so.
Notes:
[*]While both the Uighurs and the Hans are subjects of the People's Republic of China, only the Hans were addressed by the author as "Chinese".This is separatism in the form of writing which forced China , also in the form of writing, to let go with the Uighurs to be split away from the rest of the 55 ethnic groups of China.
[*]The author provide his readers, which are mostly in the West, with an intentionally selective background information about the Uighurs.
He was painting a picture that
the Chinese government encouraged the Hans to move to Xinjiang en mass thus marginalizing the largest ethnic group, the Uighurs, in Xinjiang and pushing them to become a minority in the province's capital city,Urumqi, resulting the Uighurs' resentment towards the Hans.
What a "perfect" explanation to the bloody 7/5 Urumqi Riot !
Shifting the blame to the Chinese Government, he let the elements of separatist terrorism walk away alive and free !
The author had purposefully dis-informed his readers with a lot of historical facts about Xinjiang so that he could give readers an impression that the Uighurs were the indigenous people and the Hans were the colonizers.
The Inconvenient Truth About
the Turks, the Uighurs, the Hans, and Xinjiang
[*]The ethnic origins of the residents of Xinjiang began to be clearly recorded in the Han Dynasty (206 B.C.-220 A.D.), the main ones being the Sai (Sak), Rouzhi (or Yueh-chih), Wusun (Usun), Qiang, Xiongnu(Hun) and Han.[*]Han Chinese started living there 800 years before the Turks came and 1000years before the Uighurs arrived. The Turks didn’t come to Xinjiang (or so-called “East Turkistan”) until the 6th centuries.
[*]Tümaen,a Turki leader, defeated the Rouran in 552, and set up a state centered in Mobei (the area north of the vast deserts on the Mongolian Plateau).The Turki realm later split into the eastern and western sides which fought ceaselessly in their scramble for the khanate.
[*]In the middle of the eighth century, both the Eastern and Western Turki khanates disappeared, their descendants being assimilated by other ethnic groups.
[*]And the Uighurs didn’t found their first khanate until 744 and the khanate collapsed in 840 because of natural disasters, internal strife and attacks by the ancient Jiegasi tribe.[*]Consequently, most of the Uighur migrated westward. One of their sub-groups moved to the modern Jimsar and Turpan regions, where they founded the Gaochang Uighur Kingdom.[*]Another sub-group moved to the Central Asian grasslands, scattered in areas from Central Asia to Kashi, and joined the Karluk and Yagma peoples in founding the Karahan Kingdom.
[*]After that, the Tarim Basin and its surrounding areas were under the rule of the Gaochang Uighur Kingdom and the Karahan Kingdom.
[*]The local residents were merged with the Uighurs that had moved west, thus laying the foundation for the subsequent formation of the Uighur ethnic group.
All these Kingdoms have been vanished, now it’s the time for the Turks and the Uighurs to merge with the Chinese.
When did the term "TURK" first appeared on history ?
[*]The first historical text to mention the Turks was from the standpoint of the Chinese, who mentioned trade of Turk tribes with the Sogdians along the Silk Road.......... [*]The first recorded use of "Turk" as a political name is a sixth-century reference to the word now pronounced in Modern Chinese as Tujue..........[*]The first known mention of the term Turk applied to a Turkic group was in reference to the Göktürks in the sixth century. [*]A letter by the Chinese Emperor written to a Göktürk Khan named Ishbarain 585 described him as "the Great Turk Khan." The Orhun inscriptions(AD 735) use the terms Turk and Turuk..........[*]The main migration of Turks, who were among the ancient inhabitants of Turkestan, occurred in medieval times, when they spread across most ofAsia and into Europe and the Middle East.[*]The first state known as "Turk", giving its name to many states and peoples afterward, was that of the Göktürks (gog = "blue" or"celestial") in the sixth century AD.

The Uighur neighborhood is centered in a warren of narrow alleyways,food markets and a large shopping area called the Grand Bazaar or the Erdaoqiao Market, where the rioting reached its peak on Sunday.
Mr. Grode, who lives in an apartment there, said he went outside when he first heard commotion around 6 p.m. He saw hundreds of Uighurs in the streets; that quickly swelled to more than 1,000, he said.
Police officers soon arrived. Around 7 p.m., protesters began hurling rocks and vegetables from the market at the police, Mr. Grode said.
Traffic had ground to a halt. An hour later, as the riot surged toward the center of the market, troops in green uniforms and full riot gear showed up, as did armored vehicles.
Chinese government officials often deploy the People’s Armed Police, a paramilitary force, to quell riots.
By midnight, Mr. Grode said, some of the armored vehicles had begun to leave, but bursts of gunfire could still be heard.

Deadly Riots in China - by Edward Wong
---------------------------------------------------------------
Here are more details that the author presented to the readers through the road-side-witness Mr. Grode who had told the author about the two rumors, of which,
one was about the Uighur being killed by a Han
while another one was about the Han being killed by the Uighur,
that caused the act of violence from both the Uighurs and the Hans.
According to Mr. Grode that he
[*]first heard commotion around 6 pm[*]went outside[*]saw hundreds of Uighurs in the streets[*]the Uighurs quickly swelled to more than 1,000[*]Police officers soon arrived.
[*]Around 7 p.m., protesters began hurling rocks and vegetables from the market at the police[*]Traffic had ground to a halt.
[*]An hour later, the riot surged toward the center of the market,
[*]troops in green uniforms and full riot gear showed up, as did armored vehicles.
[*]By midnight, some of the armored vehicles had begun to leave,
[*]bursts of gunfire could still be heard.
NOTES:
[*]Interestingly, Mr. Grode didn't recall any "peaceful protest" , did he ?[*]Mr. Grode said that "Around 7 pm,the protesters began hurling rocks and vegetables from the market at the police. "
Yet the author told us earlier in the same report out of his subjective judgment without demonstrating any supporting source of information that
The clashes on Sunday began when the police confronted a protest march held by Uighurs to demand a full government investigation of abrawl between Uighur and Han workers that erupted in Guangdong Province overnight on June 25 and June 26.
So, what is the best interpretation for such a gap of the two versions?
Choice 1.The author's credibility is a quest.
Choice 2. The road-side-witness - Mr. Grode's credibility is a quest.
Choice 3. Nobody, including the author, really knows what happened .However, lies will become truth after it's being repeated for a hundred times.So,be "bold" to make things up.After all, it's not what you say but how you say it.Lies being said again and again for a hundred times will also become truth.

图片链接有问题？？我看不见图片 先顶。后看。 Apparently, the author EDWARD WONG had no idea of what really happened. But to show he did know something, he made the "truth" out of his biased imagination. 哇。。完全看不懂 本帖最后由 hong_hai_er 于 2009-7-28 05:46 编辑
Thanks Mian Qin and Flasher.
I have a feeling that Mr. Edward Wong is not simply a journalist but also have some background on western political propaganda training.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Modern Propaganda Techniques
# 1. Guilt By Association:
This is used to damage someone's reputation by associating them with an unattractive person or organization. It doesn't matter if there is an actual association or not.
Example:
Kristen said that too many people were moving into the South without the input of Americans already living there. "This land is for my grandchildren, not world wide social experiments. She lives a couple states away from where David Duke has his national office, and some think many in the region feel the way she does.
# 2. Backstroke:
Systematically belittling the goals of the subject of the article as the goals are being listed. For every step forward for the subject, the propagandist pulls the reader back.
Example:
This year the political party's stated goal is to give the rally a warm atmosphere. We walked into the cave-like coliseum as the preparations for the rally were taking place. "We're trying to create a family atmosphere" said one representative of the party as he squinted into the harsh lights. "There are the children's rides" he said happily pointing to where union workmen smashed open wooden crates with iron crowbars.
# 3. Misinformation:
This is a subtle technique, it involves reporting information in such away that the final message of the story is not true, it's what the propagandist wants you to believe.
Example:
Recently a well known conservative tried to run advertisements in university newspapers addressing slave reparations for black Americans. The writer listed several facts which he felt demonstrated why reparations are not necessary and not fair. One of these facts was the fact that black Americans in the United States today earn, on average, around 20 times more than blacks living in Africa, and therefore, according to the author, descendants of slaves are actually far better off today than the people who remained behind.
A second author, writing about the advertisement, stated only that "the first author said that blacks were better off being slaves.", but didn't explain the facts the first author had shared. Imagine if you read the second author's report and weren't familiar with the first author's position. You would think the first author was a monster for saying that people were lucky to be slaves! But that's not what the first author said, he said their descendants have a lot more money now than the people still living in the original countries have.
This is misinformation, you're given a half truth about someone's position, and it is presented in a misleading fashion.
# 4. Over Humanization:
It is a perfectly valid technique to tell a story by focusing on thereal people who the story impacts. However, this is also an easy technique for manipulation when a propagandist tries to mask an issue by making anyone who has a valid disagreement look evil due to all the human suffering talked about in the story.
Example:
Standing in the dusty desert was Juanita Lopez Camal Esquedo and her 15 hungry children. Half of the children were blind, the other half were crippled. As the smallest child, little Juanita, looked across the barbed wire fence into America, she begged her mommy for some food.Since everyone in Mexico had died of starvation, and food would nevergrow there again, there was nowhere else for them to go. And after all,this was the only family that wanted to come into America anyway. Just one more family.
Over humanization can be used not only with illegal immigration, but also with any other potential tear-jerker topic.
# 5. Name Calling:
This is officially the oldest trick in the book. It is cheap and easy.Often immigration reform activists are called anti-immigrant, people who are against state sponsored racism are called "racists" themselves.Name calling clouds and confuses issues, and when repeated by enough people on one side of an issue, creates a weight of its own, which isn't really there, but must now be explained before the victim "may"have an opinion regarding the issue in question.
Example:
By saying that the population is growing too quickly, many people assumed she was a racist.
# 6. He Said, She Said:
This is a technique whereby the author can say something they know isn't true, or isn't fair, but they want to say it anyway.
Example:
Project USA is a group which claims to support reasonable levels of immigration. They've put up billboards with Department of Statistics information which states that the US population will double within 50years. The billboards have pictures of children of different races with the words "The population of the US will double within this child's life time. Stop it congress". Some people say this is hate speech.
Note:a statistic (the fact that the US population will double at current levels of immigration) cannot be hateful. This is just a numerical fact, like saying water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The author knows this is an unfair statement, but wants to say it anyway. That's why she says "some people say", rather than "I say".
# 7. Unproven "Facts"
This is when a (usually immature) "writer" is frantically trying to"prove" a position and they begin to quote "studies", "reports", and"experts" as "proving" this or that, but they never mention the study'sname, location, where copies can be found, or the conditions specific to the experiments.
Example:
Recent studies show that the media is right 99% of the time. Also, an expert from the University of Happiness was quoted as saying "People in the media work harder than anyone who thinks they have a real job".
# 8. Lying
Sometimes complete lies are told.
Example:
An author in Arizona writes a report which states that the reason that a local mayor decided not to use the police to enforce immigration law was because protests by a certain ethnic group scared him away from it.In actual fact, as stated by the mayor himself, the reason the police weren't used was because no training program had been set up between the police and the INS.
Any person who was a member ofsaid ethnic group would gain from a report like this because, if people begin to hear that "that group is really aggressive and authorities do what they say" then the power of that group is enhanced, and everyone reading the "news" will begin thinking they should always let that group have what it wants.
The fact that our police need special permission to enforce some laws and not others is a topic for another discussion.
# 9. Telling the Truth, For a While
To throw people off the track, biased news services will give good accurate reporting for a while, usually when it no longer matters, then they will stick it to you the next time your guard is down. The best way to recognize this technique is to simply remember who the biggest transgressors are. You must understand that if someone lies or tries to manipulate a story once, they will do so again. They will never be non-biased. They will, however, say something fair from time to time.This is due to the fact that if they were biased every time they spoke,they would soon run out of credibility. Do not trust them twice. Would you buy a car from someone who cheated you on a previous purchase just because they say something you want to hear later?
# 10. Not Talking at all about Something
Of course the biggest recent example of this are the Muslim riots inFrance. The fact that the rioters were still burning more than one hundred cars EACH NIGHT was suppressed and avoided, rather we were fed the line that the riots were over. The media went days and days not reporting on the riots which were revealing the complete failure of French social, economic, and immigration policy. However, France, being a socialist country, is favored by the socialist media, so the country's failings were not reported. When you're aware of a major issue underway, but see no coverage on it, then you can be sure the media is against the ideas which discussing that topic would raise.
# 11. Subtle Inaccuracies/Dismissive Tone
Misstating a topic, often a serious one, and pretending any objecting or concerned view is silly, unrealistic, or just not necessary. Illegal immigration is a major threat to the United States. With the rapid importation of distinct, and not particularly grateful, ethnic groups who have no interest in anything American, we create division,conflict, and risk. This is a risk that will grow to overwhelm our children.
One writer used a childlike, grandmotherly tone to try to belittle and dismiss this serious topic. Her style was to write with pleasantries such as "oh, my you've grown, look at the happy big new population". This is an intentional disservice to the readers and an attempt to manipulate them into not recognizing the risk they and their children face of being supplanted in their own home once and for all by foreigners, who, by the way, won't care about you once they outnumber you.
At best, this is a foolish policy. At worst, itis self destruction. In any case, it must be controlled responsibly if we are to remain masters of our own future.
This author's method is just one way to use a dismissive tone to trick people into not recognizing the topic's seriousness. The next time you're reading an article which seems to speak childishly of a serious issue, you should be aware that in all probability the author doesn't fail to understand the seriousness of the issue, rather they may be trying to further an opposing agenda.
# 12. A One One Punch
Pretending to represent two sides, but one side gets a couple of great lines , the other side gets a lame line.
Example:
Tax cuts are all the rage these days, but two senators disagree on how appropriate tax cuts would be right now. Left Senator Jones says "The rich are the ones getting a cut. Who needs rich people with more money?". Right Senator Smith doesn't think that's correct. He thinks only certain individuals should benefit. "The smallest number of people who enjoy this are the people with the most money" repeated Left Senator Jones. "I think that money belongs to all the people, and the best way to give out money the government collects through friendly tax raises is for the government to do it! It's like all the people getting a raise!", said Left Senator Jones. Right Senator Smith didn't agree. He thought the money should reflect the people who had earned the most. When asked why Right Senator Smith felt this way he said "People have to earn a living". Left Senator Jones said "It is precisely this attempt by Senator Smith tokeep people from earning a living that I and my party oppose!".
# 13. Volume
This is related to Coordination, it is merely a deluge of the same story line everywhere, until it becomes dominant, and the media's view of it becomes the dominant view (Elian Gonzalez, Florida Recount, PoorElection Night Coverage) If you pick a topic with a strong liberal attraction, you will often find that all the "news" stories about a given current event seem to draw a similar conclusion about it. When you notice this, just ask yourself if it's probable that, in a nation of nearly 300 million, no one has a legitimate opposing opinion. For example, does everyone think Republicans want to poison themselves andall the rest of us? Does everyone want unlimited, uncontrolled, illegal immigration to displace their children? Does everyone love working from January till May for free to pay the government taxes? No, they don't.
# 14. Coordination
This occurs when a number of like minded journalists all report the same angle at about the same time. This really doesn't require aconspiracy, there are so few "journalists", and they can easily see what their buddies' takes are on issues, then parrot the same line.
Acouple years ago we saw an article in a Southeast paper that actually addressed the damage being inflicted by uncontrolled immigration. Wewere shocked.
Unfortunately, there followed soon after along rose-colored story about the wonderful immigrants saving our economy (which was the magnet for their arrival in the first place) at no expense to us, written by the previously honest author, plus 5 other additional co-authors (read "thought police"). It did have a tiny list of "challenges", which was followed by an immediate rebuttal, and altogether comprised less than 5% of the article, which among journalists passes for equal time.
Magically, a very similar article appeared at the same time in a nearby regional paper written by three other authors with almost the same structure, a list of wondrous immigrants and everything was perfect about them. Did the "Censoring 5"and "The Three Amigos" just happen to telepathically think the same thing, write it, and publish it at the same time? We'll let our readers decide the odds of Spontaneous Identical Publishing (S.I.P.) for themselves.
# 15. Fogging an Issue/Total Nonsense
Sometimes certain groups have an interest in making sure that as few people pay attention to an issue as possible. A good propagandist can write a long, nonsensical article for the purpose of confusing themajority of readers, who themselves work hard all day. It doesn't takemuch for them to see a catchy headline, then begin to dig into a long rambling article, then throw their hands up and say "I don't have the extra energy to decipher this!". The reader is correct, the fault is with the propagandist.
Example:
The Real Reason Why We Need Tax Cuts!
A lot of people want tax cuts these days. Here's the real reason they might not be such a good idea. The social ramifications are themselves reason enough! Given a perplexing view of the real inter-generational conflict in today's "live and let live" society, most people make the more responsible choice. This leads us to the logical question, with school budgets tight, can we afford to argue over social services? A close examination of IRS records plainly displays the fiduciary incentive for economic re-examination in a post-socialist sense.
(this article will then ramble on like this for 3 or 4 pages)
# 16. 2,3,4 Technique
Mentioning only one side of an issue 2, 3, or 4 times in an article,each time pretending you are about to present the opposing side, butyou never do. Then the article suddenly ends and the reader feels bombarded, outnumbered and alone. In reality the opposing view is by definition held by many people, the author merely refused to present the side of the argument he or she disagrees with.
Example:
The decision to seal off an additional 4 million acres was a controversial one. Barbara Oaks of Center ville says "There are great advantages to sealing the area off". Many in town feel the same way, less trafficmeans less pollution, less damage to the area, and less noise. However, not everyone agrees with her.
The most common complaints don't address the additional benefits of closing the forest, such as increased education opportunities for area children. Not many opportunities like this afford themselves year round, and keeping the area closed will guarantee the educational hikes around the perimeter can continue. Many longtime residents feel that closing all 4 million acres will be a burden.
But don't tell that to Steve Longmont. "I hope they close even more"Steve told our interviewers. "There's no good reason for heavy travel through the whole forest, and I'd like to see the place prohibited".Several area polls show a large number of people in favor of closing the area. Keeping the forest closed is what is best for the town.
# 17. Preemptive Strike
This is when the writer "attacks" the reader viciously at the veryoutset of the article with the "acceptable" view of the topic. The writer tries to "beat it into" the reader.
Example:
Just a couple days ago the possible presidential run of a politician who is very pro-enforcement of immigration law was featured in an article by an East Coast paper. The article began by saying the candidate doesn't expect to win because of this or that, and in fact doesn't think he'll win at all, he just wants people to talk about immigration.
Nowhere in the article did the candidate say he didn't expect to win, or that he only wanted people to talk about immigration. In fact, the article pointed out that he had already visited Iowa 4 times in 6 months, not at all like someone who doesn't even want to win.
At the end of the article were instructions on how to defeat this candidate. The opening attack on his seriousness as a candidate, and the closing advice on how to defeat him are classic examples of Preemptive Strike.
# 18. Framing the Debate
Setting an argument around two "alternatives" which you would prefer, rather than the true alternatives.
Example:
The debate over how much funding to give to the project continued. Some are arguing for a reduced amount, while others want to see a much higher contribution level. The needs for both a lower budget and a higher budget have been laid out and defended in the debate brochure, which all members of the decision making body have been reading over for the last three days.
(Note: the correct decision was to stop the project completely, it accomplishes nothing and the people running it are stealing the money, but you weren't offered the choice ofstopping it.)
# 19. Token Equal Time
Sometimes a weak, tiny understatement is added to a propaganda piece,apparently so the writer can pretend they had been fair.This technique is quite common, it consists of an article written with entirely one point of view, then at the end a meager statement from the opposing view is printed, it is immediately refuted, then the article eitherends or continues on with the preferred point of view.
# 20. "Interpreting" A Statement
Have you ever seen a writer say that someone said something, then what the person said followed, but it didn't look anything like what the writer claimed was meant?
Example:
The official said that they didn't hold anyone from the previous administration responsible for the loss. "I think we should just focus on the future" said the official.
(note:he didn't say he didn't hold anyone from the previous administration responsible, he said we should focus on the future. See the difference?)
# 21. Withholding Information
Is it the same as lying? Some in the media might not want to answer that question. Recently a candidate for mayor of Los Angeles was portrayed as a "jubilant son of an immigrant" in an article. What the article didn't mention was that he also once said "Prop 187 is the last gasp of white America in California", he belongs to, or once belonged to, a racist separatist organization which plans to takeover the American south west for Mexico to rule, and at a recent ceremony honoring early black leaders he called one of the early union members an***** in front of 400 black leaders. 100 people walked out of the meeting room, though it was reported as 25% in order to diminish the effect. None of this was included in the article about the "jubilant son of an immigrant"
More recently there is the example of multiple murders on private land in Wisconsin by a Hmong immigrant.In actual fact, of the six people murdered all but one were unarmed,one was a woman, shell casings were found all around the area, meaning the murderer chased his unarmed victims all around to try and kill them. The story as reported called all the victims "hunters" to conjure up the image of tough armed men in a fair fight, even though thevictims weren't "hunting" at all but were warning the killer to stayoff of their private land, hence he murdered them. The upsetting details only came out long after the story was initially reported.
Are the authors of these articles lying to the public by not presenting all of the information about the stories, or are the authors so incompetent and clueless that they aren't even aware of these major points even though they are supposed to be writing about these important stories?The authors are either liars or morons.
# 22. Distracting or Absurd Metrics
With this technique, the writer attempts to drag the reader into a debate about what the reader is even seeing. This is usually used whenthe propagandist is falling behind and must hurry to destroy correct understanding of events.
Example:
During the French riots many writers began arguing about the number ofcars burned and whether the number still "indicated" riot levels. In other words, let's argue about what a riot is, and when you have enough destroyed cars, we'll talk. Meanwhile, you're discussing burnt cars and not the ongoing riots. 15# zhaoqinyu567

Sure. One cannot become a journalist of the famous western media unless he either had such training or had taught himself.
I have no evidence to suggest that Mr. Edward Wong was making the "truth" under the instruction of someone. But it is totally reasonable to suspect that, by making the "truth" that way Mr. Wong would best please the biased appetite of those chief editors and readers.

Mr. Edward Wong is no doubt writing such kind of propaganda articles to serve his Master's interests.
The interest of his Master matched perfectly with the interest of the anti-China group that back Rebiya Kadeer, the World Uighur Congress. well, had paid attention to this edward wong for quite some time, all of his articles were very baised against china, especially those after the riots in tibet.
also that william foreman of the associate press, a master of twisting facts, inserting his own words in the reports.
need to nail on associate presss, ny times, BBC. BBC in chinese is one of worst liars you can get...
