President Xi soon to arrive in London!!

Anti-corruption campaigns in China have traditionally been about purging the party of less desirables and rivals. What makes you think this one is somehow different, M?

I'm not going to take the time to once more type out information that I've already posted 50 fucking times on this forum, and I'm pretty sure I've already discussed with you anyway.

Duh mac! Because Xi is, and I quote, "as cute as a bear".

Don't you see it?!

[macbone]

M, that's the equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and saying, "La, la, la, I can't hear you! China is so great! La la la!"

The fact is, the current anti-corruption campaign is a political purge. You know it, I know it, the CCP knows it, and the media knows it. The only people who don't are the ordinary citizens who are lied to by the establishment.

You know what would be awesome in China? If any citizen were allowed to run for political office. Think of the greatness China could achieve with every citizen part of the political process!

And how about going after the people locking human rights lawyers up and torturing them? Now that's reform I can get behind! Let's get rid of the scumbags who beat and torture lawyers who are advocating for the people!

I assume you are joking.

I assume you are joking.

And I assume you ignore the inconvenient facts. Just so you can sleep at night.

Sigh.

Do you really think they'd be doing that if they thought the campaign was nothing more than a witch hunt?

From several of the articles i just read, the only reason why China has such an operation in the first place is because they don't have extradition treaties with many countries because of their flagrant Human Rights violations.

fantastic duck and dodge!

If thats all you have to say after cutting everything else but my first sentence out then I must say that sentence should read "fantastic attempted duck and dodge!"(For yourself of course) Don't cut out the rest of my arguments to suit yourself is what i'd like to say, but i still know you probably will.

On top of that none of them mention actually exporting any of the accused.

Also I find this interesting:

Xi’s crackdown on graft -- the harshest since the republic’s founding in October 1949, state media say -- started weeks after he became party boss in November 2012.

It started WEEKS and it conveniently snags political rivals LOL.
Also Witch hunt implies chaos. This is planned with a perfect disguise of a legitimate reason over the purge. Aka. Not a witch hunt rather a predetermined and coordinated strike with the excuse of a legitimate reason.

Next time try to actually read the rest of the post, but maybe you just have too much wool over your eyes to do so. Or maybe they are just filled with too much sand.

It cut it out because all it contained was:

a) evidence you did search very carefully for information about my claim that the US has extradited Skynet suspects before declaring it false (which it is not, as 10 seconds on Google provided me with evidence of)
b)a rehash of dumb points that the conversation has already been through and moved on from

But kudos for topping it off with a random non sequitur about human rights. Looks like you've got the hang of political mud-slinging to a tee!

I didn't say it was wrong, I said after reading 3 articles (i was interested in that site, but random crap kept me from reading the article), none of them mentioned extradition of captives.
And if by Been through you mean: you refuse to actually dispute then yes.

You didn't say I was wrong, you just threw doubt on what I said

Exactly. There is a difference you know. And then I asked for you to provide more information. Which meant i was interested in the rest of what your argument was. Shocking I know.
