中国公民刘晓波获得2010年度诺贝尔和平奖,这一消息在国内和国际引起极大的反响,
它是中国当代一个重大的历史事件,它也为中国和平地实现社会转型、向民主宪政迈进
提供了新的契机。本着对历史负责、对中国的命运前途负责的精神,我们特发表声明如
下。
一、诺贝尔和平奖委员会把本年度的奖项颁发给刘晓波,这一决定符合该奖项的宗旨和
评审标准。在当代社会,和平与人权密不可分,对生命的剥夺与践踏不仅发生在战场上
,也发生在一国之内的暴政与恶法实践中。国际舆论的普遍赞扬证明,将今年的和平奖
授予中国人权运动的代表人物,是一个及时和正确的决定。
二、刘晓波是诺贝尔和平奖的恰当人选,他坚持以非暴力手段维护人权,以理性的态度
抗议社会不公正;他以坚韧的态度争取实现民主宪政目标,而在身受迫害时摒弃仇恨心
理,这一切使他无庸置疑地拥有获奖资格。刘晓波的理念和实践也为中国人在解决政治
、社会冲突中的行为方式提供了典范。
三、刘晓波获奖后,各国政府、各地区、各组织... 阅读全帖 |

immediate end to the war, Japan’s leaders had wanted to sur... 阅读全帖 |

by Christopher Jackson
Until recently I taught at a predominantly black high school in a
southeastern state. The mainstream press gives a hint of what conditions are
like in black schools, but only a hint. Expressions journalists use like “
chaotic” or “poor learning environment” or “lack of discipline” do not
capture what really happens. There is nothing like the day-to-day experience
of teaching black children and that is what I will try to ... 阅读全帖 |

In Poland, he asks the West to defend its values of faith and freedom.

The White House description of Donald Trump’s speech Thursday in Warsaw was
simply, “Remarks by President Trump to the People of Poland.” In truth,
Mr. Trump’s remarks were directed at the people of the world. Six months
into his first term of office, Mr. Trump finally offered the core of what
could become a governing philosophy. It is a determined and af... 阅读全帖 |

missile that can deliver a nuclear warhead to Beijing and Shanghai.

THIS speech was delivered by Winston Churchill to Britain's House of Commons
on June 4, 1940, calling on the people to fight against the Nazis.
Nevertheless, our thankfulness at the escape of our army and so many men
must not blind us to the fact that what has happened in France and Belgium
is a colossal military disaster. The French army has been weakened, the
Belgian army has been lost, a large part of those fortified lines upon which
so much faith had been reposed is gone, many valuab... 阅读全帖 |
