Nobel peace prize

I want to pay my highest respect to Xiaobo Liu, this year's Nobel peace prize winner. I have followed him for many years, reading his articles on the web wherever I could find them, mainly from cnd.org.

Now China is an all powerful country, has vast resources, being it military, economic, or propaganda etc at its disposal. It just seems ridiculous to me that the party and the government chose to put everything on the line in order to make one private citizen's life miserable. And I am really surprised that with a huge think tank base, no one could come up a wise solution to allow the party to save face and move beyond this case. Everyone that is involved in the fiasco should be fired. I mean, come on, it is 21st century, anyone that involved in the case should be put on trial. The outrage really drove me speechless.
