If China intervenes, it will be bloody. China knows that there cannot be a repeat of Tiananmen. Not anymore...and definitely not in Hong Kong. The world is watching how China will respond.
I hope the Hong Kong Leaders will come out to speak to the protesters and resolve to help them find solutions to their grievances. Protesters must understand that Hong Kong is now "one country, 2 systems" ... not one Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Leaders , however, should ensure that the Hong Kong system is on par with the other system, not inferior. There is the best way forward for Hong Kong.
I think a lot of us here will be long gone by 2047.
me 2wil b around ... me n android, ibm mainframe ...Not me. I am a machine, a micromachine. I will be here for many more centuries to come
Yep. That's my thoughts too. Lolas if china care about other countries opinions and judgement.
True..but China will have to tread carefully if US were to intervene. They are still at trade war with each other... US will use the violation of human rights as the lever for the trade negotiation on top of their alleged accusations of China insistence on forced technology transfer from US company operating in China, their state subsidy to their own SOE and intellectual theft.as if china care about other countries opinions and judgement.

Still ok lah 1.5% nia. No 20% No scared. Can protest somemore for another 10 weeksHONG KONG: Violent protests are driving Hong Kong down a "path of no return", the city's leader warned on Tuesday (Aug 13) as its airport struggled to recover from an unprecedented shutdown triggered by a rally and authorities in Beijing sent more ominous signals that the unrest must end.
"Violence, no matter if it's using violence or condoning violence, will push Hong Kong down a path of no return, will plunge Hong Kong society into a very worrying and dangerous situation," Lam said during a press conference.
"The situation in Hong Kong in the past week has made me very worried that we have reached this dangerous situation," she added.
As she spoke to reporters, her voice cracking with emotion at one point, Hong Kong's Hang Seng index fell by more than 1 per cent to its lowest level since Jan 4. The index was down around 1.5 per cent soon after.
She said violence by protesters had pushed Hong Kong into "a state of panic and chaos".
"Hong Kong, as an open, free, very tolerant, economically stable city will see severe wounds ... The recovery may take a long time," she said.

What she is saying portends troubling news if the demonstration in Hong Kong were to continue unabated... word like "severe wounds " ... " recover may take a long time " ... " the path of no return ". It is as though she is foretelling that the China Central Government will send it their army and quell the Hong Kong protesters by force. There is nothing she can do about.
Want to take advantage of the benefit of China as hinterland and not willing to follow the same rule... LolLam also dodged a question on whether she had the power to end the crisis by granting one of the key demands of the protesters: To fully withdraw a now-suspended Bill that would allow extraditions to mainland China.
Pressed on whether her hands were tied by Beijing on the issue, she demurred, insisting the question had been answered in the past.
"I again ask everyone to put aside your differences and calm down.
"Take a minute to think, look at our city, our home – do you all really want to see it pushed into an abyss?" Lam added, appearing on the verge of tears.

Carrie Lam is in a very tight situation. All she can say to the Hong Kong people is
