It never was , though some may no doubt debate that.
Interesting to notice first Bjork made her statement during her show in China ( 'Tibet' ) ,
then the official reaction ( 'She hurt the Chinese people...').
Next even Harry Connick Jr.'s show in Shanghai was messed with by an anxious Communist Party.
Then the Buddhist monks tried to march and were met with overreaction.
And then it blew up. In a few directions.
The CCP had a chance to show something different in their stance towards a row of monks marching, but they've blown it. Again.
Long simmering dissent from the young Tibetans ...
Anyone going to the Olympics in Beijing ?
