【新唐人2012年8月23日讯】保钓船回香港 受到英雄式欢迎
成功抵达钓鱼岛宣示主权的香港渔船“启丰二号”，载着7名保钓人士，8月22号回到香港，大批香港市民和来自大陆的游客前往欢迎。但是，港府和中共方面却没有任何人到场。
下午两点多，插着中共“五星红旗”和中华民国“青天白日”国旗的“启丰二号”，在香港维多利亚港尖沙嘴码头靠岸。“启丰二号”同时还挂着“日本滚出钓鱼台”和“日本必须道歉赔偿”等标语。
“香港保钓行动委员会”在码头举行欢迎仪式，很多市民专程带着香槟及鲜花前往庆祝，人们远距离见到船只时，时而呼喊，时而鼓掌欢迎。也有人对中共在保钓行动上没有尽力协助表示不满。
而大陆民众则在网上评论说，中共当局对民间的保钓运动的态度，是既警惕防范又想利用操控，就是没有真心保护国土。
《人民日报》声称钓鱼岛属于日本
另外，1953年1月和1958年3月，中共喉舌《人民日报》发表的两篇文章，最近也在网上疯传。中共在这两篇文章中，公开声称钓鱼岛属于日本。文章引述当时中共外交发言人的说法，所谓“中国绝不放弃对琉球群岛主权”的消息，是美国人捏造的谣言。文章还说，中共总理周恩来早在1951年8月的一项声明中指出，包括琉球群岛和小笠原群岛等在内的这些岛屿，在过去的任何国际协定中，没有脱离过日本。这些中共早年出卖钓鱼岛的言论，在大陆网络上引起强烈反弹，骂声一片。很多人要求《人民日报》出面解释。也有网友表示，原来政府一直在忽悠和糊弄无知的民众，人们由此也认识了谁才是真正的卖国贼！
舆论：谷案显示法律面前人不平等
中共法院宣布对谷开来故意杀人罪判处死缓后，各界的议论一直没有停息。美国《纽约时报》报导说，这个宣判结果，似乎激起了所有人的愤怒和嘲讽。
报导引述法律观察者的话指出，谷开来作为一名律师，应该非常清楚她在做什么。“她自己策划犯罪，自己把毒药灌进海伍德的嘴巴里，她自己毁灭证据，但是她却没有受到应有的惩罚。”
而在大陆网络上，网友纷纷拿谷开来与刺死两名城管而被判死刑的沈阳小商贩——夏俊峰，做比较。有人说，“一名律师预谋杀人而被判死缓，一名摊贩因为自卫而被死刑。”也有律师质疑说，“为什么她只判死缓？难道我们的宪法被篡改为，人们在法律面前不平等吗？”

Diaoyu Islands Activists Welcomed Back to Hong Kong
On August 22, seven activists went to Diaoyu Islands
to proclaim that their sovereignty be returned to Hong Kong.
Hong Kong people and mainland
tourists flocked to welcome them.
However, the Hong Kong Government and the Chinese
Communist Party (CCP) had no representatives present.
At 2pm, a fishing vessel attached with a five-star red flag
and a flag of the Republic of China arrived in Hong Kong.
The vessel was displaying banners.
“Japan, get out of the Diaoyu Island”.
“Japan must apologize and compensate".
Hong Kong’s Action Committee for Defending
Diaoyu Islands held a welcoming ceremony at the pier.
Local residents carried champagne and flowers to celebrate.
Crowds on the scene shouted and applauded
upon seeing the vessel’s approach.
Some expressed discontent with the CCP
failing to have fully assisted on the issue.
China’s netizens commented on the official attitude
towards the civil campaign in defending the Diaoyu Islands.
The CCP authorities are on guard, but also
want to utilize and manipulate the civil campaign.
The only thing the regime failed to do was truly
protect the homeland, according to the online posts.
People’s Daily: the Diaoyu Islands Belong to Japan
Two articles published in 1953 and 1958 by People’s Daily
have recently been widely circulated on the internet.
Both articles openly claimed that
the Diaoyu Islands belong to Japan.
The articles quoted the then CCP Foreign Ministry
spokesman, saying that alleged news that,
“China never gives up sovereignty over the
Ryukyu Islands" was a rumor fabricated the U.S.
The article also said that back in August 1951,
then CCP Premier Zhou Enlai commented in a statement.
“Isles, including the Ryukyu Islands and the Ogasawara
Islands, had never been disaffiliated from Japan,
according to all international agreements in the past."
The CCP’s historical remarks aroused
wide outcry on the internet in China.
Lots of people demanded
an explanation from People’s Daily.
A netizen said in a post, “the government turned out to
have been fooling the Chinese people all these years."
“And now the public understand who the real traitor is!"
Gu Kailai Case: Inequality Before the Law
Comments continue on Gu Kailai’s suspended death
sentence after being convicted of murder with intent.
The New York Times reported that the CCP court’s
verdict"appears to have prompted anger and cynicism from almost everyone here who paid attention."
The news quoted legal observers, saying that Gu Kailai
is “a trained lawyer, (and) would have known precisely what she was doing."
“She planned the crime herself,
put the poison in his mouth herself,
destroyed the evidence herself
but didn’t turn herself in."
Chinese netizens compared Gu Kailai with Xia Junfeng.
Xia was a street vendor in Shenyang, and was given the
death penalty for killing two urban management officers.
A netizen said, “A lawyer got a suspended
death sentence for deliberate murder.
While a street vendor got death penalty for self-defense."
A lawyer questioned, “Why was she only given reprieve?
Has our Constitution been distorted
to inequality before the law? “
