Peaceful march for Tibet in Chicago ends with broken window at consulate

I love watching the news now that I have time. And even though the U.S. news is not that good, they sometimes report important things. Though this isn't about Iraq, it is important and relevant to the protests we have done and will continue to do in the future, because we can learn from this as to what is eye catching. Also, this issue has to do with human rights, which is always important, but relates to what the U.S. is doing to the Iraqi people and what our government is doing to our own people as well. The issue also has to do with allowing outsider media sources into Tibet to report what is actually happening there, a problem that we have in the U.S. as well (as it relates to Iraq, Darfur, etc.). Also, just to make me happy, the protesters wish to strip China of the 2008 Olympics, something that will make it apparent that the world will not support the genocide in Tibet or Darfur, both of which China is supporting. We must learn from these issues and realize that C.A.N. goes beyond Iraq, and into more human rights issues.

I am glad you take interests in this issue.
But I really suggest u read and research more.
The US media are highly biased this time. ( I am not sure about other things)
Thanks
