KEAN:
Hu Jia went to trial today in Beijing. According to a BBC report, the CCP regime has charged Hu with "inciting subversion of state power and the socialist system". The charges have something to do with interviews he gave with foreign media and articles that he published on the Internet, according to his lawyer.
But the trial is being condemned by the West as a political witch-hunt. Western diplomats who tried to attend the trial were, reportedly, turned away.
Hu is one of China's best-known activists. He has publicized human rights abuses against a long list of victims throughout the country. The 34-year old was detained in late 2007 after enduring months of house arrest. His wife, who is also a human rights activist, remains under house arrest.

  • dammed government!

  • Nobel Prize for Hu Jia I hope !

  • Such an amazing, courageous human! We need to support him, to honor him, and to not forget him, and wife. I wish China would honor such strong and resolute individuals. Any country would be proud to have him as a citizen. Free Hu Jia! We are remembering.

  • Please share videos about Hu Jia with your friends. The Chinese people are beautiful, but many in the government are thugs who have been corrupted by power. These officials do not grant people basic human rights. Hu Jia is now in prison, separated from his wife and baby, for having a conscience and peacefully expressing his opinions.

    Mention Hu Jia in blogs. If you are traveling to China for the Olympics, bring pictures of Hu Jia. Ask your government to continue to plead for his release.

  • and another question: why are ALL bloggers supporting china in every way registered as from the USA???

    which nationality are you, big mouth? r u us citizen? or just a program? or coward chinese afraid to show its real identity?

    in any way you make china look even more STUPID

  • well, if you comment here i think NTDTV is the one deleting it, not youtube.

    also THIS comment of yours seems to remain.

    i have a question for you: why did ALL my comments i wrote at chinese propaganda clips get deleted?

    and most importantly:

    DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT HU JIA OR THIS CLIP HERE???

    world would surely appreciate to hear more of your kind ;-)

  • The YouTube video backed by the US government does not allow free commenting. All my comments are deleted. Only Western propagandas and biased views hostile to China are allowed? Is this how the West preach freedom?
