Monk in foreground, Chinese rescue workers hard at work in their lovely clean gear while a Chinese military man sorts out his camera. "Oy monk don't walk into the scene!".
So there was a wee 7.1 magnitude earthquake in China's Qinghai province on Wednesday. For those that don't get out too much that area used to be Tibet with a load of Mongols moving in during the 18th century.
In 1928 and then really super officially in 1949 China invaded and took it over for its own good, ach go watch the film Seven years in Tibet if ya can stand Brad Pitt's Austrian accent which was terrible but better than the Norn Iron one he did in The Devil's Own:
"One man trapped by destiny, and another bound by duty. They're about to discover what they're willing to fight, and to die for."
I'm too sexy for the RA!I've never seen an IRA terrorist as pretty as Pitt, to be honest they are usually shouting "please don't kill me I was diddled by priests its not my fault I'm a murdering coward" with tears doon their faces and shit stains in their y-fronts. Ach did I get off track ? try to focus ya cunts.
So Tibet .......... the Chinese hate them but being commie bullies like to be in charge of a poor mountainous region that is of no use except its another part of the world they can own and it gives them an expendable no mans land to protect its real borders.
As soon as the quake happened hundreds of Tibetan monks and nuns were on the scene giving what relief they can and pulling bodies from the rubble. Now holy men may be total tit-heads but unlike the holy men of the Vatican these Buddhist monks don't make excuses they talk the talk and walk the walk just like those in the Burma protests so fair play to them .
Chinese soldiers and rescue workers have been mostly only digging bodies out of official Chinese buildings and schools, they are more eager to guard their own shit than dig but what can you expect its a 90% Tibetan region ....
The monks have been doing most of the work and are the only ones digging out people in the hooses.
Only official media allowed but Old Knudsen has his sources doon at Panda Express where the egg rolls flow free for Old Knudsen.
When the cameras turn up the soldiers get off their arses and send the monks packing and are seen to be the ones pulling the bodies out..... ah propaganda don't ya love it? memo to Bush, wear an open necked blue shirt with the sleeves rolled up.
Unlike the monks many rescue workers can't handle the altitude like they gave a fuck anyway.
The Chinese President Hu Jintao showed up at the same time as a load of government aid did and in front of the cameras hugged crying people and wrote in chalk on a blackboard in a makeshift school in a tent "There will be new schools! There will be new homes!"
He didn't say where they would be as now is a great time for China to move broken ethnic Tibetan families to more chinky regions to get rid of them.
Don't worry Americans with you getting over all caring Socialist health care which you often confuse with cunty Communism you can still be total wankers just like the chinks. During Katrina the government was under no obligation to help but it was expected and media pressure made it so. Why would they help? its not a socialist cuntry, ach ya want it all but not pay for it.
Oh sorry its Tibet Not Norman Tebbit the English MP who this year violently kicked a chinky child who wore a Chinese dragon costume during a Chinese New Year parade.... silly twat!
Who gives a fuck its Tibet? What about those cunty Icelanders and their volcano ash? now that is serious I mean who wants ugly American tourists stuck in Ye Olde London .......... England for any longer than they have to be? "I'm an American damn it I should be airlifted out by the space shuttle, McCain wouldn't have let this happen, damn you Obama!"
