What a Shame...China is Destroying its Cultural Heritage.......

Historically significant ancient tombs were destroyed or covered over with dirt to make way for a new housing project in Inner-Mongolia. Despite...

Their actions amounted to a violation of China's cultural relics protection law, but so far no one had been arrested.

No one has been arrested and the article also goes on to say that the destruction continues and the police are not stopping it!

There must be lots of payoffs and graft going on to do this. And where are all the officials in Beijing? Oh, I forgot, the lunatics are too concerned with which places the Japanese Prime Minister is going to visit or the plan to attack Taiwan or how to spirit out all the money that they have stolen from their own people.

A hundred Chinese tombs more than 2,000 years old have been crushed or buried to make way for a housing project in Inner Mongolia province, state media reported.

The destruction, backed by the local government, continued even though the Helinge'er county site was one of the largest and best-preserved cultural heritage sites in China, the Beijing Youth Daily said.

What an absolute shame. Next time Hu Jintao squawks about China's 5,000 years of history someone should ask him "What history?" and ask him what gives with this abomination.
