Ugh. I have been LONG absent from the blog for reasons of immense illness and busyness ("immense" modifies both illness and busyness). I hope to be back with a vengeance later tonight as I have much to post, but here's one for the moment as Lily continues to pick up my slack.



China Watch:



Much has happened that I haven't posted and will post tonight or tomorrow, but here's the most interesting on a local front. Morrison & Foerster has dropped Tibetan asylum clients to represent Beijing for the 2008 Olympics. Some Yale Law students have put together a letter to MoFo--one of the few YLS group actions I will unflinchingly sign.

The International Olympics Committee awarded Beijing the 2008 Olympic Games because it believed that such "constructive engagement" would encourage China to move toward liberalization and respect for human rights. Your firm's decision to end its representation of Tibetan asylum clients in order to avoid offending the Chinese government undermines this theory of constructive engagement and turns a blind eye to discrimination and persecution of Tibetans by the Chinese government.

Indeed. Indeed.
