Free Tibet, my holy foot

Please do not liberate my country. I understand your energy, good nature and idealism. I was the same when I was at your age. I hope you’re there to protest for China when your ancestors pushed opium to China.

First, thanks you all. Now, I’m a naturalized US citizen collecting generous welfare benefits.  You do not understand how my life has been improved staying here. Just imagine living in the highest mountain in your country year round.  

There are always folks wanting to be kings and queens. They have their ambitions and revolutionary ideas. Some may want to be steal ‘legally’.  The last ones went to India after the failed revolt sponsored by CIA. Please let me know who sponsor today’s Tibetan movements – not seem to be a Mickey Mouse production. They do not speak for the common folks who just want a peaceful life.

News on Tibet must feed a lot of reporters in the west but hurt their conscience. Some are not true and some were reported from the desk. The recent Tibetan riot was started when Han Chinese were murdered but was reported wrongly with photos that were bought and modified to indicate it was the other way round. To be fair, Chinese reporters are no angels.

The Chinese will not give up Tibet. It is the major water source for most of Asia. How many territories within a country are now independent? We get more from the Chinese than giving back. Our standard of living improves substantially and so is our literacy rate.

The new train and the proposed 750 small dams to generate electricity are recent gifts. I bet the extraction of natural Chinese will improve our living standard further. It is the same as opening a casino in an Indian reservation. The benefits outnumber the drawbacks.

China had been ruled by Mongolians and Manchurians in history. We’re one of the 55 minorities, same as the blacks in your country or the Quebec French in Canada. Dali Lama must be the best salesman on earth with the circus of silly and most likely uneducated Hollywood celebrities. If there were one like him for Mongolia, one for Manchuria, you guys will be busy for a long while.

Unless you can convince your congress to send soldiers to ‘liberate’ us, please do not stir up our rebellious sentiment towards the Chinese.  The more you do, the more our folks suffer and ‘disappear’.

Spend your energy elsewhere. The choices are unlimited: CEOs enjoying outrageous benefits/bonuses from companies receiving bailouts, or killing Iraqi children in a war you cannot afford. Just leave our 2 million souls in Tibet alone. Check for the last 200 years, who are the ones that invade and colonize? Not Chinese for sure.

Everywhere in China, you see Tibetan cultures have been maintained (excluding the Cultural Revolution) – different from what your ‘reporters’ report. All the minorities have been exempted from the one-child policy. Check out the following link. Do they look oppressed to you?

It sounds like propaganda.  I want you to know that I have no connection with the Chinese government. Your action on the wheel-chair torch bearer for Olympic showed the world how barbarous and coward you are.

I just want to be realistic and the world at least my world will be more peaceful without your demonstrations.  I wrote the above from the mind of the silent majority of Tibetans.
 

to me tibetans don't look any diffrent that the chinese people. I think tibet is more closer to china than the rest of the world and the tibetan's and chinese should be able to get along well in the long run. Thinking of building an independent state(tibet) based on  religion (Bhuddist) will not work out well as can be seen from several other similar examples from the past- most of those states formed on the basis of religion are either financially or morally  or both bankrupt.

  China had been torn apart and brutal occupied by then superpower Britain, Frence, and Japan. Chinese leadership is highly in sensitivity if any foreign agent try to excite the Tibetan/Chinese to rebel against other ethnic Chinese. Espceially, when a violent attack on Chinese soil which usually cause Chinese leadership tightening the area in order to stabilize its society.
   Dala Lama organized Tibetan/Chinese by text through cell phone from Indian soil to had a violent terror attack other ethnic Chinese in March, 2008 which contributed a current tensionb and tightened in ethnic Tibetan/Chinese area.
   If Dala Lama claimed that Tibetan/Chinese under Chinese rule has been "hell on the earth, I wonder how much better under Dala Lama and those monk rule, Dala Lama should try to work togather to improve Tibetan/Chinese life. It seems to me this is more like power struggled in Lhasa between Chinese leadership and a group of monk led by Dala Lama.
   Dala Lama claimed that he wanted autonomous Tibet and some Chinese province surround Tibetan area. However, from the speech what he made so far, it seems to me that he would not tolerate that Tibetan/Chinese mixed with other ethnic Chinese and other ethnic Chinese can not live in Tibet and those provinces surrounded Tibetan area. Obviously, Dala Lama made a propose that Chinese leaders could not accept. those Dala Lama would and will not work with Chinese leadership to resolve problem to the best interest of Tibetan/Chinese.

No matter how hard Communist China may try they will not bale to change basic belief of Tibetan people. Tibet was independent nation with its own identity, history,langauge,culture and heritage since seventh century.  

China's past 50 yrs.of illegal occupation of Tibet has resulted an untold number of sufferings that no tibetan family exist today who hasn't had their family member directly died in hands of Chinese Govt.

It's is really a laughable to claim that March 28, as a day of emancipation of Tibet's Serf where independent media, news reporter, journalist and forigners were completely banned except Chinese propagandist reporting machines.

It's irony that China's claimed liberated Tibet today need a martial law to clamp down the will of its people and transform regional policy of force reducation to alter the basic inhabitant's belief.

China (CCP Govt) is still a loser in 21 century. I hope chinese brothers and sisters would rise up to the solgan of "Change". Change that empowers ordinary people not a few selected Communist party members.

Any State run, State Controlled, State Regulated Media will always twist and spin the History to make itself look Benevolent in front of the world.
But the truth remains.  And that Truth is It is the people, it is up to the Tibetan people to decide for themselves ! as One Nation. as One People, Struggle to maintain their identity in the face of such Repression.
The Chinese people MUST Wake up and See that Their Government has been committing genocide in Tibet.
What China has been and still is doing in Tibet is EXACTLY the same thing that Japan did in Nanking.
Chinese Gov't Rewriting the History to fit as they like, this will not change the History, It is the History of Tibetan People ! It will be told by Tibetan People not China the Oppressor, the invader, the occupier.  How ever length The Chinese Gov't goes to rewrite History to Justify its illegal invasion and brutal occupation of Tibet will not succeed in this day and age!

One does not have to look anywhere else but the Refugee Reception center in India.  Every Year, since China's invasion of Tibet, Tibetan refugees have been fleeing their homeland approximately 2500- 3500 each Year!  One just needs to ask them! they are the Tibetan people ! They are the representative of Tibetan people !
One needs to ook-up some of the more recent documentaries still exposing the same truth of what Tibetan people have been telling the world in the last 50+ yrs

1) Leaving Fear Behind
2) Tibet Beyond Fear
3) Uprising in Tibet
4) Fire under the snow
5) Destruction of Serthar

The Dalai Lama says "China has launched a brutal crackdown in Tibet" and "following Tuesday's speech, marches were held in support of Tibet in Dharmsala, New Delhi, Seoul and Canberra."

Wow he says it and it comes true.

Is this like inciting riots and hatred in another country?

There is a saying that goes like this: A Dog Mouth Grows No Ivory.  To use such a description to describe Adrienne Mong and the media in the West is very appropriate.  Every thing that China says is propaganda and every thing the self-proclaimed reincarnated Tibetan parasite Dalying Lama says is true according to Adrienne Mong.  This kind of reporting is very despicaple because it incites hatreds.  Why doesn't Adrienne Mong take a break from bad mouthing China and report some other news that is more interesting?

Big stone in China's Flip-Flops.

We (The USA) could apply backroom Politics, in letting them know that we would be inclined to raise Tariffs on Chinese exports to American soil, if they do not soften their hardline stance in Tibet.

Just talking with China, concerning Tibet, will bear fruit.

I hope we have closed the final door on the failed BUSH regime, where we were just to superior to talk with just anybody, give me a break!

Gotta say China put on really great Olympics!

The USA should just mind their own business, we cannot preach to anybody about occupying another country.

When Bush lied to invade Iraq, thus ensuring Tens of Thousands be slaughtered by well meaning US Troops (their are reports that a small number of American Troops had a hand in illegal killings) thru Collateral Damage.

So we need to shutup, because we are no better than the Chinese, we occupy as we please and so do they.

USA please stay out of this Mire.

We have enough of our problems.

And until we right the wrongs of the Bush

Administration, we are the problem with

the World.

Thank God for A Good Man in the Whitehouse, maybe he

can turn us around.

Tibet is the source of all of China's major rivers.
Thus there is no way any Chinese government, communist or democratically elected, would ever allow Tibet to become independent.

im a little suspicious about the origin of the first poster, as no Tibetan would appreciate having a higher standard of life along with the rape , murder and torture of 1000's of his own people. In fact today China is making a demographic change in Tibet by settling Han Chinese.

China took over Tibet by HAMMERING NAILS INTO THE EYES OF THE peaceful buddhist monks. This is not a USA vs Muslim dispute where both sides have a story. This is a criminal vs victim dispute where the Chinese have commited mass murder in Tibet.

http://www.tibetjustice.org This comprehensive link below will tell you all about the suffering of the Tibetan People. Now you will know why the Chinese obstruct journalists in Tibet. This obstruction defies new regulations passed in 2006 that were supposed to give foreign journalists expanded freedoms in the run-up to and during the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPNQHq5-X... that you have read the above link, this link will give you a graphic video ( shot by Western Mountaineers ) of Chinese soldiers shooting Tibetan refugees, who were trying to escape to India thru the Himalayas. ( if this link changes just search youtube – ‘Chinese killing Tibetans’)

Free Australia, Free America, after all white people illegally occupied these two countries, millions dead and kileed by whites. now it is time fore all white people go back to where they come from

Americans(Canadians, Aussies etc),
if you wanna talk about tibet, go home pack your bags and get back to Europe. Until then you better shut up so you won't appear to be a hypocrite.

In reply to Native America:

Hey don't forget the Beautiful Islands of Hawaii.

The White Man took over ourIsalnd and they are currently occupying a land that they stole and killed for.

I am starting to feel the Tibetians and the Iraqis pain at having Violent, Immoral Administration lie and invade and then illegally occupying a country.

Please leave Hawaii and Iraq, you are not wanted in either place.

Hey the guy who said all White People should go back to Europe- I'm gone!!

I will be living in Ireland in 1 week.

The one poster is right "America is the problem with the world".

Although Obama is off to a wonderful start. God Bless the people of Tibet.

communist government is well known for brarinwash or make-up stories. They make up documentry stories about anything that suits their agenda. Sometimes they deliberatly comdem or dicriminate religions or cultures of other groups. Majority of Chinese poeple are get used to it and have no-feeling toward what is wrong or right. Sooner or later people will realize that a person is an individual and should have his or her own thought and rights. Poeple will change the government and not vise-verse.

For those Chinese who pretend to be Native Americans or others NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT WHAT REPRESSIVE MEASURE ANY OTHER COUNTRY DID IN THE PAST DOES NOT GIVE THEM THE RIGHT TO OPPRESS TIBETANS OR ANY OTHER PEOPLE !

How does that make any sense AT ALL ?
If somebody has killed, taken a life of someone else, DOES THAT GIVE ME OR YOU THE "RIGHT" TO KILL OTHER?

WHERE IS THE COMMON SENSE?
DO YOU EVEN HAVE any Shreds of COMPASSION?

Where ever INJUSTICE, Violation of Human rights is taking place, it is DUTY Of EVERYONE to speak up against Such Atrocities !

AGAIN: It is EVERYONES duty to help those Oppressed !
You CANNOT say it is internal affairs, When Such Repression is taking place, such Suffering is taking place... ALL BORDER VANISHES ! because there is no border that separates ONE HUMAN BEING FROM ANOTHER ONE'S SUFFERING !

Dalai Lama as a religion leader should not mixed with politics. And as America should not interfere other countries internal affair,you America should look after your own peoples welfare.

"One does not have to look anywhere else but the Refugee Reception center in India.  Every Year, since China's invasion of Tibet, Tibetan refugees have been fleeing their homeland approximately 2500- 3500 each Year!"

Not enough and not fast enough, there are more New Yorkers leaving the city each year than these welfare cases.

Break the chains of slavery!  Learn science, mathematics, and technology to lead you out of the miserable subsistence the Dalai Lama and his gangs have placed you.  It is not your fault.  

To Anderson. Your comment is typical of the gross and inflammatory exaggerations of the Dalai Propaganda machine running amok. I have heard a lot of accusations of the Chinese "brutality" from them, but must admit this is the first time I heard rape mentioned, and mentioned in such a context as if it happened on a massive scale. Where's your source? The Chinese armed forces, the PLA did fight with the Lamaist guards in 1959 and there were casualties on both sides, with collateral damage, but never were they ever accused by Western observers or media of
atrocities like systematic rape, like the Japanese Imperial Army. Come on, you are way overboard.

To A Tibetan Crying for a homeland

You raised a valid point in that 2 wrong don’t make one right. However, you also failed to see the context of many of these China Bashing rants that precipitated the Anti-anti-China responses. We are talking about this massive hypocrisy and double standard by the West. I put to you that that is also a racial element, maybe a subconscious one, to this “yellow peril” phobia in the works. When they see a yellow race united and on the rise, they want to put it down. Let’s get back to the hypocrisy part. Western nations have for centuries committed everything that they now accuse the Han Chinese of doing in Tibet, and in fact much worse. The genocides, cultural and physical, of the Americas, Australia, Africa. The worst acts that China is now accused of perpetrating (many falsely) do not even begin to compare to the kidnapping of entire communities from Africa and enslaving them for centuries half way around the world, causing untold deaths and misery. Look at France. Let’s not forget that it was not that long ago France was thrown out of Indochina, out of Algeria. And in Algeria they committed mass executions and tortures (the French general in charge there even wrote a book later on detailing his torture methods so others can emulate). What about the harsh tactics the English used in N. Ireland – including torture. Let’s look at the present. The West today still rules over vast overseas colonies all over the world. Why do the French not give independence to the Kanaks in French Polynesia? What about the Polynesian culture – where is it? You go to Tahiti – what language do they use on their sign boards? Samoa? Hawaii?  Do you not call that cultural genocide? What about Iraq (3 million refugees living in horrid circumstances), Gitmo? Hey, how about letting the Palestinians go back to Palestine? We all know why. Why does the US Congress not pass a resolution that gives S. Carolina back to the Cherokees? How about Sikkim – India gobbled up a nation and a people. Where is the outcry? Why is N. Ireland still not part of Eire? If you have stolen a million bucks, don’t expect much sympathy if somebody screws you for 10 dollars and you then scream bloody murder. I see your point, but can you not see my point? I can accept someone critiquing on the Tibetan situation, if it is done less hysterically, more evenhandedly and in the larger context of what's going on elsewhere in this world.
