Dumbass....just cross the Rio Grande from Mexico into the U.S. at night, and you will be welcomed and protected (AND, given all the freebies that U.S. Citizens get, and be PROTECTED from deportation by HHS zealots)
The least we could do is offer to pay for the bullet.
Between the Pakistani doctor who aided the snuff of OBL and now this, it should pretty much dry up any new humintel from those places.
But that’s what Obozo wants under his program to drag this country into the 16th century then the New World Order.
Why didn’t they just shoot the poor man to avoid getting him tortured? I dislike what my goobermint does at times.
Dear leader has no soul.
Oh noes, we can’t upset China. If we do, they might not buy our debt and subsidize Obama’s destruction of the US economy.
Is Biden to take the blame for this in order to sanitize HRC?
There was a time when we gladly threw open our doors to those fleeing Communist repression and didn’t worry about what said Communist dictatorships thought or our relations with them.
RED CHINA is just as evil - if not moreso - as the Soviet Union was.
Is ANYTHING ever obastard’s fault?! FUBO!!!
This is not surprising. There has always been an understanding between communist leaders that they will turn back each other’s defectors.
Poor man.
Should have said he was gay.
You guys are acting like this guy is some kind of hero. He’s a corrupt SOB who backed the corrupt SOB and his wife who poisoned that Brit.
I read a detailed report on this case compared with the blind activist case recently. I think it was in Time, but am not sure. At any rate, this guy had a reputation that was rather questionable—dirty deals, graft, corruption, etc. and links or some connection with the woman who is currently on trial for killing the foreign businessman. Her family is in trouble for getting too big for their britches, the old Greek hubris, and he was in some way connected.
The story on the blind activist was completely different and also sympathetic. I think that the Embassy probably made the right call in each case.
I wonder how many American lives that decision will cost us because of the intel we just flushed down the toilet?
Land of the free and the home of the brave?
Thanks for positing this.
Although Lijun appears to be a bad apple, his intel would have been welcome, and he could have entered a land of opportunity only slightly less corrupt in its leadership.
Liberals are hypocrites. They say they are against the death penaty, but hand someone over that they know will be at least put to death, probably tortured too.
