上面的英文写道“A Tib-etan monk was dragged away by the police in Katmandu, Nepal, on Monday during a rally at United Nations offices”。“在尼泊尔加德满都,一位在联合国门前示威的藏喇嘛正在被拖走”。
标题斩钉截铁说中国在TBT实行恐怖统治。但社论一开头也承认,“Information was hard to verify — nearly all foreigners are barred from entering and Tibetans have no freedom — but news reports said a market in the capital was burned; at least 16, and perhaps many more, people were killed; and paramilitary police and troops were deployed.”就是消息很难证实,只知道市场烧毁,至少16人死亡,派遣了武警。
接着说美国从十个人权最糟糕国家名单中删掉了中国。Whatever gain China may have gotten from being elevated above the likes of North Korea, Myanmar, Iran and Sudan was lost by the crackdown on TBT. 【不管中国由于比北韩等国(人权)略好一点而得到任何好处,都会因为在TBT的镇压而失去。】
