Three Tibet activists returned to the U.S., arriving at JFK Airport after being deported for staging a protest near the Bird’s Nest stadium in Beijing, one hour before the Olympic Opening Ceremony began yesterday. Jonathan Stribling-Uss, Kalaya’an Mendoza, and Cesar Maxit displayed three Tibetan national flags and were quickly grabbed, assaulted, and tackled to the ground by security officials. Displaying Tibet’s national flag is a serious crime in China.
