Wow--what a pilgrimage of reading in order for me to 'get it"!
 
Cautionary tale of how nut-job the web really is.
Joanna
====================================


The original article comes from a right-wing Christian fundamentalist outfit
based in Canada ( see: 
http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/categories/C11 ). The article is
written by a sensationalist hack-writer with connections to the Mossad and
British intelligence.

The article is also prominently featured at two other other right-wing
Christian nutjob websites: "freedomthirst.com" (whose motto is "it was for
freedom that Christ set us free..."), and g2.wnd.com (run by evangelical
christian Joseph Farah who was part of the Arkansas Project)
- and has been virtually ignored by the rest of the world.

Gordon Thomas' "article" has the look, feel and smell of deliberate
dis-information. Probably a slap-dash joint project by very-low-level folks
at MI6 and Unit 8341 of the PLA.

The point of the dis-information is to try to dampen support for the
uprising that has been happening in Tibet for going on two-weeks now. 
Right-wing Christian nutjobs want ALL of China to themselves - they do not
want any competition from Buddhists. So they want to discredit what is going
on now.

I can neither confirm nor deny that any of the above reflects my actual
beliefs or knowledge. This conversation never happened.
