A 13-year-old US boy, who is campaigning to turn the demilitarized zone (DMZ) between North and South Korea into a peace park, was released from Chinese detention on Monday along with his mother, after staging a brief protest near Tiananmen Square in Beijing. Jonathan Lee unfurled a sign saying "peace treaty" and "nuclear free DMZ children's peace forest" as he stood outside the Forbidden City earlier in the day.

Wow.

Screw the rest of the world until our own people are not homeless and starving!

zzz

He is protesting in the wrong place.

Isn't he suppose to protest in Washington, last I checked, it is the US which doesn't want a peace treaty.

Ohh GOSH, I think this is the same kid that was supposed to visit N-Korea.

You don't go to China and protest anything in Tienanmen Square...ever. First off, staging a protest of anything in a foreign country is a bad idea. Secondly, it's Tienanmen Square...the history makes any protest there very likely to be quelled quickly. His mother really should have known better.
