Why is the Peoples Republic of China Assisting in the Harassment of American\r\nDissidents?\r\n<\/p>
Many Internet websites aimed at opposing war with Iraq have become the\r\ntargets of smear and harassment campaigns. One form of harassment involves\r\nemail spoofing. Many activist websites maintain mailing lists for the\r\npurpose of disseminating breaking news. Harassers, usually pro-Zionist in\r\ntheir aims, send forged emails using the email address of the activists'\r\naccount. The message contain statements seeking to defame the antiwar\r\nactivists owning the dissident websites. Examination of the headers often\r\nreveal the actual source of the emails. These emails have come from many\r\ncountries, including the United States, Israel, Lebanon, and Australia. \r\nHowever, I find it particularly irritating that some of the more virulent are\r\ncoming from the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). The PRC does not support\r\na war with Iraq. The PRC has tight control over the use of the Internet\r\nwithin the PRC. Consequently, it is difficult to believe that these\r\nharassment campaigns run out of the PRC operate without the PRC's consent. \r\nOne must conclude that the PRC condones the harassment of American dissidents.<\/b><\/p>\r\n
The most recent campaign out of the PRC targeted a well known dissident\r\nInternet site. Spoofed emails calling for Jihad and making terroristic\r\nstatements were send out, fraudulently, in the name of that site's\r\nwebmaster. These spoofed emails originated at the following company\r\nlocated in Hong Kong:<\/b><\/p>\r\n
