That would need to go in the notebook,” said Dr Byler, in research published by Asia Society's Centre on US-China Relations. “Was that a copy of the Quran in the home?

China is becoming more and more totalitarian.

More and More? This isn't anything new, but still disconcerting nonetheless. They've been doing this sort of thing to Christians, Muslims, and Buddhists (Tibetans) for a long time.

China has been totalitarian since the start of the communist takeover in 1949. The only exception I think would be Hong Kong, for which I think is an "experimental" city for China when it was handed over to the communists in 1997 from the British.

They do what they do because they can. Who's to stop them? Who would stand up to them? Not the West; we sold out to them decades ago. After we gave them a pass on the whole Tiananmen Square ordeal, they knew they could no wrong in our eyes.
