From the article: "Zhang Yu, representing the family of Shi Tao, said they were considering taking Yahoo Hong Kong Holdings to court either here or in the United States. 'We believe what (Yahoo) did was illegal so we are considering taking Yahoo to court,' Zhang told reporters, adding that Yahoo had refused to discuss the matter with him. "

    Bush should still bomb those fucking gooks, look at how he brought freedom and democracy to Iraq. We liberate the oppressed, it's the American way.
