right.
Though it is quite obvious that the OP tries to stretch a picture IMO.
What the heck do four threads about this mean..
Disinfo?
BEIJING — The unceremonious firing Thursday of Bo Xilai, the populist Communist Party chief of the southwestern mega-city of Chongqing, was seen by some observers here as a victory for China’s reformers and a stinging defeat for those known as the “new leftists,” for whom Bo had emerged as a champion. But with the party’s internal wrangling shrouded in secrecy, the latest twist in China’s most tumultuous political drama in years has left many — from ordinary Chinese to foreign China-watchers — perplexed about what is really going on behind the vermilion walls of the Zhongnanhai leadership compound in Beijing.
Beijing authorities were already investigating Bo’s anti-crime crusade because of allegations that the targets were often wealthy Chongqing businessmen. Bo’s right-hand man in the crackdown was his then-police chief, Wang Lijun, who himself became the subject of a corruption probe and was demoted this year. On Feb. 6, Wang fled Chongqing for Chengdu, more than 200 miles away, and took refuge for a day at the U.S. Consulate before being escorted to Beijing by Chinese security officials.
