Chewitup, the bigger point I was making about making knee-jerk reactions was that we first blame those known terrorists. Sure enough, some made claims that turned out to be groundless. Introspection as to why it happened will continue for a very long time.

Chewitup, he blamed Norway for getting what it deserved because China has condemned the Nobel Committee for awarding the Liu Xiaobo the Nobel Peace Prize.

What a tragedy. Even more tragic when we start blaming the wrong people - even if we think we have the right reasons.

A Chinese ministry researcher, Mei Xinyu, blamed Norway itself, and even posted that on Weibo (China's twitter) until netizens' angry responses forced him to delete his comments.

pranavk, it's called a human interest story. You can be sure there are plenty of Americans (and other non-Americans, like myself) on this site who are concerned. If you don't care about your nationality, that's your business. A lot of people do care where they come from and what their actions mean on behalf of their country.

RIP Taylor, with condolences to her family, friends and students.

I agree with mrjack: send them to do some of the clean-up work. Let's hope they are caught and taught a life lesson.

How do you stab someone multiple times and NOT kill them?

Because he was a wimp? Possibly, that was what his older brother called him before the attack.

Posted in: What do you think about the wave of anti-government protests in countries like Egypt, Tunisia, Yemen, Bahrain, Libya and Iran? Should countries like China and North Korea feel uneasy about it? See in context

China is not North Korea. China's got a lot of problems, but as long as the majority of its people continue to improve their lot - despite corruption and cronyism - few people will see the need to revolt. Though it will be interesting to see what happens when the property bubble. North Koreans, however, have many reasons to rise up against theirs leaders.

so why the need for Australia to butt in?

Maybe because the Australian government is willing to protect its own. Why isn't the J-gov stepping up?
