I've posted a few things about the Chinese government's use of on-campus Confucius Institutes to promote their political ends. It appears they've jumped the shark on this one though. From the RG:
The Chinese government is pressuring the mayor of an Oregon college town [Corvallis] to order that a Taiwanese-American businessman remove a mural advocating independence for Tibet and Taiwan. ... 9/11/2012.
