But he is only one person.
I know nothing about him, but his credentials do not impress me at all.
Any one person can be mistaken, or bribed, or coerced, etc.  Who knows?
Whenever it is a case of "many against one" I tend to believe the many.

But if the Chinese would not be committing atrocities right now in Tibet,
they would allow foreign journalists in.
Since the whole world knows how brutal the communists are, and how they
NEVER admit to any wrongdoings, the ONLY reason for banning foreign
journalists is that they are cru****ng the Tibetan protests with
absolutely brutal and inhuman methods.
