The followings are a very limited part of online dicussions digested from several most famous Chinese websites and to some extent but not fully represent the feelings of some Chinese in mainland and overseas (some are living in Israel).

The followings are translated from Chinese into English; the IP addresses are hidden by the websites for privacy policy.

The background: two Chinese were killed in a bombing incident in the Israel and Palestine conflicting area on 12 April 2002; the Ambassador of Palestine in Beijing will be presented at the www.sohu.com on 17 April 2002 19:30 -- 21:00 (local time) for an online talk.

... Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affair conveyed its government's sympathy for the death of our compatriot within 12 hours. In contrast, two days later, we finally heard from Mr. Arafat his late "regret". Faced with the questions raised by the Chinese news correspondants, the Ambassdor of Palestine in Beijing expressed his supprise and regret, and said that this suicide bombing is a response to the attack on Palestine by Israel and it is a purely private hehavior (source: Xinhua News Agency).


Why you are so supprised, my Dear Mr. Ambassador? I have to nothing to say about your attitude. It makes me really sad especially my memory tells me that our Chinese have been dedicated ourselves to the freedom and liberty of Palestine for over 40 years. Even though Mr. Arafat might not know everything the army or the terrorists under his supervision would do, the possible/potential damages to innocient life of unarmed civilian and outsiders of any operation should be predicted and prevented as far as I understand.

Furthermore, what's the defination of "private hehavior", Dear Mr. Ambassador? please note that Mr. Arafat, your Chairman has already recognized an armed team of the PLO is the planner and operator of this attack. Isn't it an organized operation rather than a private one? Pls don't mess me.

In comparison with PLO, Israel, the victim of this bombing attack, never deny that this attack is a revenge to Irsael's military action, and express its sorry for neglecting its duty of protecting foreign civilian ...

... Why our newspaper and TV always describe these Arabian as the vicitims? Are these medias corresponding the truth from a real fair viewpoint? In my impression, Israel is a nation which has been suffering so many disasters in its history, a nation which never forget those who once helped it in its hardship. Some old jews never forget those days in when they stayed in Shanghai of China to avoid the Nazi's persecution in World War II. These Chinese shared with the jews their last food; They will never forget that the consellor at Chinese Ambassy in Austria issued hundreds of visas for Jews and help them to leave for China at those days. Please note that Israel is the country who had been always expecting to set up diplomatic relationship with P.R. China since PRC's foundation in 1949; please remember that, It's Israel that is always helping us develop our agriculture in acrid area and our military industry. As the Israel Ambassador in Beijing said at the end of last year, our two nations are becoming more and more closer...

In contrast, these Arabians, who get our sustainable supports, always question us " Why your Chinese never allow our Muslim brothers in Xinjiang independent from China and set up their islam country!". Remember bus-bombing attacks several years ago in Xinjiang of China, which happened on the bus during rush hours and killed dozen of innocient persons, these Arabain seems so similar in this sense.

I guess Israel should recalled what Nazi did to Jew in World War II, and it may be helpful for them to understand P's feeling.

Strongly support Israel to iron out all the troubles and terrorists there, and never stop until no terrorist survives.

I believe that we should be in a non-bias position to view the conflicts today..., Anyway, why the correspondences of our news media also stand by those Ps' side , who are really trouble-makers...

Who are the terrorists? It's not hard to identify in this case. Well done, Israel!

Israel's military operation is a reasonable defendence and part of world anti-terrorism actions. Israel' PM is a great leader.

Now, everyone should understand why the Israel's military took action against these terrorists, who just killed two Chinese. Wake up, every Chinese! Stop criticizing Israel! No government would allow its unarmed civilian to be killed by terrorism. The Chinese Government is too weak to take strong step even facing the fact that thousands of Chinese Indonesian were killed and hundreds of Chinese women were raped in Jakarta 1998.

From the viewpoint of an outsider, these actons colored by "terrorism" are just insignificant and life-waste, which are definitely led to more stronger strike-back from Israel. Anyway, if it were not Israel occupied the homeland of Ps, the tragedy should have been avoided. Meanwhile, we have full reasons to criticize the terriorists who killed the two Chinese, I feel really sad about their deaths. Please calm down, however, let us ask ourselves, who is the first one provoked the conflict?
