Risible
Encore une histoire mêlant bêtise, Japon et nationalisme chinois chauffé au fer rouge et blanc.
Pour résumer : Un japonais un peu rond, accompagné de sa femme chinoise et de ses enfants se prend la tête avec une chauffeur de taxi pour une histoire de chewing-gum collé sur la banquette arrière. Comme toujours en Chine, ça se termine en engueulade avec des insultes qui volent dans tous les sens. Les amis chinois du petit japonais sont dans un autre taxi, et décident de prêter main forte. Forcément ça se termine mal quand les chinois décident de faire le coup-de-poing. Tout ça pour finir en protestation devant le consulat Japonais de Shenyang. Ha yaaaaaaaa !

Anti-Japan protest after cabbie beaten (SCMP)
By KEVIN HUANG
Hundreds of mainlanders demonstrated outside the Japanese consulate in Shenyang, Liaoning province, earlier this week after a taxi driver was attacked during a dispute with a Japanese passenger.
Xinhua yesterday quoted local police as saying the row started at 9.30pm on Monday after a 58-year-old Japanese man stuck chewing gum on a taxi seat.
Taxi driver Gu Xiaodong argued with the passenger, who was accompanied by his Chinese wife and several Chinese friends, and the two started pushing each other.
While stopped at a red light, two of the Japanese man's Chinese friends travelling in a cab following Mr Gu's taxi pulled Mr Gu from his vehicle and started beating him up, Xinhua said.
It said the Japanese man quickly left the scene after the attack, but witnesses called the police and officers arrested the two men attacking Mr Gu. The taxi driver sustained a minor eye injury and received medical treatment.
Police questioned the Japanese man and others involved in the case, including the man's wife, on Tuesday. The report said the passengers had been drinking alcohol before the dispute.
The consulate declined to comment on the matter yesterday, with employees saying senior staff were on business trips. But Reuters quoted it as saying 200 to 300 Chinese people, mainly taxi drivers, staged a protest rally near the consulate late on Monday night.
During the hour-long demonstration, protesters shouted anti-Japan slogans. The consulate said its buildings suffered no damage.
The rally highlighted the tense state of Sino-Japanese relations in recent years as a result of what Beijing sees as Japan's failure to own up to its brutal wartime behaviour, its bid for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council, and Japanese politicians' frequent visits to a Tokyo shrine that honours war criminals.
The Shenyang consulate has warned Japanese citizens in the area "to refrain from speaking aloud in Japanese" in public and to be careful about what they say and do when dealing with Chinese people.
