Wei Jingsheng Was Quoted by National Review's Article on Beijing Olympics

 

 

Last week, National Review published a series of 5 installments of series on the Beijing Olympics by its senior editor Jay Nordlinger.  This is one of the best articles about the Beijing Olympics we have read.  In his last installment, the author quoted Mr. Wei Jingsheng's answers about the Beijing Olympics.

 

We recommend our friends and readers to read this fine series.  The original links of the articles are:

The following are the quotation out of the article include the 4 questions and answers by Mr. Wei Jingsheng:

 

“I will quote to you another great man - Wei Jingsheng. In 1993, he was a pawn in China's Olympic game. He was released nine days before the IOC voted (on the 2000 Olympics), after 14 and a half years in prison. I asked him some questions by e-mail; he answered via the same means:

 

Question: Will the Olympic Games be of great benefit to the Chinese government? Will they strengthen the Communist party?

 

Answer: The Chinese government wanted to hold the Olympic Games as the proof that the whole world is standing with the Chinese Communist Party, as a way to suppress the opposition minds of the people, and to maintain an autocracy that is ready to fall. So you can see that they have treated the Olympic Games as the most important thing.

 

Question: Can any good, for Chinese democracy, come out of these Games?

 

Answer: If the CCP has a successful Olympics, then it proves that it is in control, both inside China and internationally. It means that the CCP's life is extended for 20 more years - which means that Chinese democratization is delayed for 20 more years.

 

Question: What should be the stance of the West, basically? Or, put another way, what should be the stance of free countries?

 

Answer: The free countries should stand with the Tibetans and the democratic side of the Chinese by applying maximum pressure to the Chinese government and pushing China to the road of peaceful transformation. This would be the best choice for both China and the West - also for the business community that has invested in China.

 

Question: Anything else? Anything in particular we should know?

 

Answer: What you and the American politicians should know is that the current America is in its weakest period - sort of like lobsters shedding, most vulnerable to attack. If you let the CCP succeed in this crisis period of the Olympic Games, it will come to carry out its ambition to strive for supremacy in Asia. By then, America and Japan would be its target. Taiwan and South Korea will be its first feed.”

魏京生在美国“国家回顾”杂志上有关北京奥运的回答

 

 

上周,美国“国家回顾”(National Review)发表了其资深编辑诺德令格(Jay Nordlinger)有关北京奥运的一个系列共5篇文章。最后的一篇里引用了魏京生先生就有关北京奥运的回答。

 

这是我们读过的有关北京奥运的最好的文章之一。特此向我们的朋友和读者推荐。有关文章的网页连接为:

以下是文章中有关魏京生的部分,包括魏先生的回答。

 

我将引用另一个伟大的人物 - 魏京生。在1993年,他成了中国奥运会的交换物。在被关押了14年半后,在国际奥委会(就2000年奥运会)投票前9天被释放。我以电子邮件的方式问了他几个问题,他也以相似的方式作了回答。

 

 

问题之1:奥运会将对中国政府很有益吗?将加强中共?

 

魏京生答:中国政府原来希望奥运会成为全世界都站在共产党一边的证据,用以压制人民的反抗意志,维护已经摇摇欲坠的专制统治。所以你可以观察到,他们把奥运会当作是第一重要的事情来处理。

 

问题之2:这场运动会对中国民主有任何好处吗?

 

魏京生答:如果中共成功地开完这次奥运会,就证明了他的国际国内控制能力过关了:他的生命至少再延长二十年。也就等于中国的民主化至少再推迟二十年。

 

问题之3:总的说来,西方(或者说自由世界)的立场应为什么?

 

魏京生答:应该站在中国民主派和西藏人的一边:给中国政府以最大的压力,帮助政府内的温和派实行妥协政策,推动中国走上和平演变的道路。这对于中国和西方都是最好的选择。对于在中国投资的企业界,也是最好的选择。

 

问题之4:就奥运会,你觉得还有什么我应当知道的?

 

魏京生答:你和美国的政治家们最应该知道的就是:美国正处于最软弱的时期,就像换壳时期的龙虾,最容易遭受攻击。如果让中共过了奥运会这个危机时期,他就会着手实行它的争霸亚洲的野心。那时候美国和日本就会成为它的目标。台湾和韩国将是它的第一批食物。
