China Unblocks Sensitive Keywords

hackingbear writes "Reports from overseas (in Chinese) [Google translation] and Hong Kong-based Chinese media report that China appears to have unblocked several sensitive political keywords. Using Baidu.com, the country's leading search engine, users within the mainland border find, in Chinese, uncensored web page links and images using keywords like Tiananmen and 'June 4'. (Readers can click on the first one to view the images.) Given that the unblocking of these sensitive keywords comes one week after Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao publicly denounced left-wing leader Bo Xilai's movement of 'striking down the ganster while reviving the red culture' as going down the path of Cultural Revolution, it could signal the silent start of a major political change."

    The Chinese troops pull out of Tibet and the Han colinization is reversed and Tibet is paid reparations AND The Dalai Lama is once again in the Potala monastery.

    Hey Greek, I like your style.
    You might also want campaign for the Europeans to pull out of America, fully pay off the $16trillion, and to reinstate Sitting Bull into the White House while you're on your pulpit.
