The torch reached Everest summit yesterday, or so it is claimed by China who said they topped out already a few days before in spite of climbers watching live from Kalapattar at the time spotted them aborting above second step.

As expected, Chinese Wang got the headlines with a few Tibetan women thrown in. At this point, none of the real Tibetan ace mountaineers are mentioned and as for the Tibetan women, in other occupied countries they would be called Quislings and have their heads shaved.
