Cheered on, no doubt, by their legions of brave cuckoo-in-the-nest supporters (and indigenous lame-brained others) in the West.

I see the Hootsmon (Xinhua Branch) Censors are allowing us to comment on a bombing in the Philippines, but not the one in Tibet.

Why is this?

Maybe because they know that people are going to point out that the bombing was probably carried out by the PLA thugs dressed in monks robes. They have been doing this for a while now, in order to try and discredit the Tibetan monks and to discredit the Dalia Lama.

As to the bombing in the Philippines, blaming al-Qaeda is a bit lame, isn't it? The Moro national Liberation Front are more likely to be responsible, without any help from al-Qaeda.

The Moro's have been fighting for their independence from the time of the Spanish occupation of their country, through the American occupation, down to the present day. Check out the history of the Philippines.

#4 I suspect you may well be right - "disinformation" is rife, as usual. And it wouldn't be the first time one organisation/country has been blamed for a bombing because it suited Western governments to do so, Libya for example ...
