#1 I thought it was the job of the host country to provide security for embassies and consulates.

That said, I never liked the F-G weirdos that always hung outside the Chinese consulate in Houston. They *are* a cult.

#2 FG may well be a cult, but they have the right to believe anything they like and peaceful (and respectfully) propagandize their views. Welcome to the marketplace of ideas.

I'll leave International Law as the last refuge of fools and scoundrels alone.

#3 Yeah, if you read too deeply into that international law, you'd probably find a clause that says the gitmo detainees can sue in federal court for damages and lost wages.

#4 I think that China had a duty to restrict the protests at the Japanese Embassy in Beijing. I am sure that they abided by the "relevant international standards" that Shen Guofang speaks of in this article. Right?

That is a very Western and liberal ( in the classical sense of the word ) point of view. In far too many places, including the world's most populous state, the government issues your opinions to you.
