| China's Internet Controls Here to Stay: Beijing Official Reuters China has every right to punish citizens using the Internet to challenge Communist Party power and ethnic policies, a senior official said on Monday, pressing Beijing's counter-offensive against Google.

The dispute has stoked friction between Beijing and Washington, two global economic heavyweights already wrestling with tensions over trade, U.S. weapons sales to Taiwan and human rights. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton last week urged China and other authoritarian governments to pull down Internet censorship, drawing a sharp rebuke from Beijing.
