wow.. I'm totally astonished and amazed by this historic moment.   
that was incredible. full credit to the chinese space administration and the 3 taikonauts.

			Presto   
Why didn't you post a something that wasn't biased regarding current Shenzhou space flight? Why of all the thousands of articles, you deliberately chose something that's misleading, faulty, and hurtful?   
Your actions won't bring you respect from anywhere. Not on RevScene. I will be the first to tell you that.

Why do you state that China is not a respected member of the international community? Could you provide a reasonable reason attached to a senseless statement when you post?   
Not just only with China bashings you guys, when you post on a forum, post in a manner that other normal human being can actually perceive and interpret your message.  
If you really want to get involved and actually have your voice heard. Do some research. It's really not that difficult.  
For example, China's premier Wen Jiabao gave a speech on China's roles and massive contribution to eliminating poverty across all third world countries, yesterday at the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the general debate of the 63rd UN General Assembly.  
How come the western medias didn't make news of that? Why? I'm puzzled and dazzled.

			It's obvious that they posted the article by mistake.  News agencies prewrite articles all the time, there's articles already done if Obama won the election and articles for McCain.  They do this so they can be one of the first to post the news when it happens.  Articles take days, even weeks to write.  All they have to do is edit it a little, swap out the dummy text for what was really said and post it up.  If CNN posted an article tomorrow by mistake saying Obama won the election, everyone would have a good laugh but because the same thing was done by China, everyone starts bashing.
