The Face of Humanitarian Interventionism

Sometimes a picture really does speak a thousand words — A Tibetan supporter, right, argues with a Chinese supporter. I feel embarrassed to share a nationality with that lunatic above, who has no idea how to comport himself in public. Couldn't he have picked on someone his own size, or at least his own sex? I feel the need to apologize to that serene little Chinese woman, whose only crime is loving her country. What does that man love? Would he love his own country? Does he really love Tibet? Or does he love some abstraction based on a collective fantasy? Or does he merely love the way he feels venting his "righteous" anger, the cause du jour being only secondary? Pathetic.
