  • 1:00 "they detained Llamas and normal people" WTF why the Llamas? what did they do?

  • and then an electric fire burned the temple down

  • The protest at the time were real, The riot was a false flag, chinese security in disguise flaming the rioting so that china could excuse the excessive force used.

  • My heart goes out to those brave monks -- they must be languishing in prison by now. Free Tibet!

  •  if these monks have trapped in the temples by chinese goverment, how could they know what was happening outside?

  • free tibet

  • I pray that they will find peace in their own land. GO MUNKS!

  • They are so because they are involved in politics....I'm not saying they deserve it, just that they should not be involved

    It would have been ok if they were just normal citizens

  • No one should be treated like this.

    But again, Monks should stay out of politics according to the teaching as far as I know

    I've read about it, but maybe TIbetian monks are different?

    Also, was China government violently oppressing people prior to protesting? I am not very familiar with what's going on

  • the chines government has been ruining their lives for a long while.

  • Before they go against Chinese government? how?

    Please explain. Im curious but too lazy to read the long article posted...

  • I've been wondering about this question.

    I thought Buddhist Monk is not supposed to be involved in any politics and live simple life...

    Are tibetian monks different?

  • @benkenser

    Well, they're really just trying to speak out against the deceptive propaganda which is the Chinese media. Sure anything dealing with the oppressed Chinese minorities is bound to be political, but that's not their intent here.

  • The words of the Sikh Guru's are the one to be remembered-

    Soora so pahchaniye, je lade deen ke het,

    Purja-purja kat mare, kabhu na chhade khet.

    (Only he is brave who fights for the cause of the poor. He may be cut into pieces and may be killed, but he should not leave the field.)

  • I say only one thing, no need to show more videos to world the right way to respond is to fire where it hurts the most, Indians too believe in non violence but they have to use violence in order to save themselves. If one dies along with him dies his qualities and righteousness so what good is going to come out of it if you die in vain your qualities for which you always stood will be lost.

  • These CCP stooges would turn in their own mothers if they said anything that "subverts state authority" Of course getting payed in a communist country puts you above the rest, so why wouldn't you?

  • So you are telling us that in a communist country most people are slaves. Sounds about right to me.

  • how come anyone say 'tibet is a part of china' take any book on history china invaded and occupies tibet oh sorry you don't have such 'capitalist books' 'cause the party has its own ones i feel sorry you have to live under a regime which calls itself 'people's government' maybe read some marx there's nothing in communism doctrine about the party imposing its own truth! ccp is a criminal organisation that should be dealt with! it constantly commits crimes against humanity! free tibet free china!

  • because you only read biased foreign books on chinese history.

  • shijieheping123

    The Government of China likes to tell, BIG, HUGE and MASSIVE LIES. The chinese communist partys Central Propaganda Department has the BIG LIE technique sorted, and manages to fool most of the world.

    Do not trust DISTORTED history books from the chinese communist party's Central Propaganda Department to learn about Tibet.

    Have you read and memorised all the DISTORTED history books in the chinese communist party's Central Propaganda Department Library ???

  • Expose those pathetic excuses for human beings the CCP. They are killers and should hold all their heads as low as they can go. They have lost face with the whole world!

    They may have tried to spam You tube with their false videos but now have been called out.

    Cant wait for August, they have a real shock coming to them in Beijing. They really wont know what hit them.

    Free the great country of Tibet and free the Chinese people from almost 60 years of oppression!

  • hmmm, terrorism from Tibetan separatists? is that the "real shock" coming to them?

  • Where are the Tibetan suicide bombers?

  • Tibetan terrorists only kill other people

    Not themselves

    Remember the innocent people who were murdered on Mar 14/08

  • terrorize = oppress by fear, violence

    So the imperialist chinese communist party are TERRORISTS !!!

  • The Chinese people are misinformed by their own media. The so-called monks riotting were dressed-up Chinese soldiers. I have seen a picture of the soldiers, each holding a monk's robe under his arm. Johnsonwu, pay attention to the ones you haven't listened to before. The truth might be uncomfortable, but, well...truer that what you believe. Talk to tibetan monks being tortured in prisons, then judge.

  • I dont understand why western media keep on using the the word "protests" when there was riot.. people dont walk around with sticks, swords, and rocks when they protest... .. for those monks .. if they didn;t do it. then who did it... there are raw footage caught by tourists showing monks participating the riot as well.... I used to hate the communist for confiscating my family's property back then, but the western media is just sickening...

  • Chinese Government is stupid. The dispute is there for sure. But it's the government's fault. The Tibetan attack first. Tell the truth to public. The Monks protest? Let them go. They have do the violence everywhere in the world. They just show themselves.

  • Chinese government has these Tibetans spoiled.

    Do not gave Tibetans priveleges than Han peopls anymore. Treat them eaqual. They do not like it? Kick them out.

  • CHINA OUT OF TIBET!!! Kick them out!!!

  • johnsonwu: that is not true. the protest did begin as peaceful protests. it was once the Chinese police intervened and starting attacking monks that the Tibetans began to fight back.

  • 哪里有压迫,哪里就有反抗。

  • Pay attention people. Chinese communist government is now concentrating in control the media. All the negative comments and pro Communist China come from the people which called watch dog of regim. Most of them got paid by the government to support China government and distort the truth. All the Chinese who really know the actual ugly face of China government got blocked to enter YouTube. Keep it up people. FREE TIBETT, BOYCOTT OLYMPIC 2008.

  • is that your idea of justice well Im proChina cuz I know the Western media are lying all Chinese students in universities everywhere are protesting against bais and hatred from the Western media you think your lie will last long?! nice try lapdog of racist paranoid Capitalist lying Politician!

  • S3al2ch3l2

    The easiest thing would be for China to get out of Tibet.

    Don't worry about us not learning social skills. We don't need you to care for us, and we don't need chinese money, nor do we need you in our country.

    Your very presences is a huge shadow. It is a psychological and a physical torture for us to see Chinese in Tibet. Just shut up and get our will you!!

  • Growing up in the west and educated in the west,what do you know about Tibet?

    There are far more Tibetans living in other provinces than in Tibet. There are Tibetan students in lots of major cities in innerland of China.

    Outside Tibet, historically, Tibetans have been living together with Han,Mongolians,Hui,Yi and other ethnic groups for ceturies. Tibetans migrated to neighboring regions as well.

  • Right? wat right u r desiring? political power?? yeh every1 yearning for that, but sorry, just bunch of roits or splittists wont get u any advantage to gain such powerful, there r 2.43M tibetants out there, first of all u need to work on them first, so try to find a better accusation next time!

  • The problem why Tibetans hard to get a job beside other ethical group, to be honest, is tibetans spend 2 much of their life time to process their religion, spend 3 or 4 years to walk thousands miles to the temple to worship ur god??? Yes we truely repected that but pls bring some books into ur bag and learn some social skills! (and FKN respect other minorities, ur god is others).

  • Tibet is poor becoz it lack of infrastructures or effeicient transport system. to develop those system will be a pain in ur narrow mind consider u treated those as cultural invation. Han Chinese n Tibetans indeed have generally equal opportunities and rights (except in some aspect law n regulations has been provided to favour tibetans to counteract the minor cultural disavantages)

  • errr, ok another BS, more accurate translation pls!! u free media still misleading ppls and spreading the hatred. Think Chinese really need some nationalism now

  • Hu +jintao+bush+hitler+demon+frog­+mao+tsedong= hellllllllllllllllllllllllllll­l

  • Free Tibet and East Turkestan.

  • By 2050, America will be half Mexican and Europe will be Muslim. China will be the last man standing.

  • for dictatorship

  • Not all the people are peaceful people, not all the monks are peaceful monks.

    The monks in Tibet Riots are criminals. What they have done to others are brutish crimes!

    These monks are no more monks, but animals!

  • how much do the party pay you?

  • how stupid can you be?

    Don't be so CNN!

  • dont be so cpp

  • Please help the oppressed people of Tibet and China.

    Boycott all Chinese export and activities till free Tibet.

    Stop feeding the Chinese evil puppet regime, stop buying the products of slavery and child labor. Demand for human rights to Tibet and China.

    Free the people.

    FREE TIBET!

  • dorjelee

    why don't you see for your self?

    buddhism dot kalachakranet dot org

  • if really dalai lama denounce tibet freedom,than why there is tibetan exile gov.?why tibetan national anthen has hate words for china? why tibetans school in india teach anti china?

  • do u know that before1959 ? there is no i inch of hwy,no public school,and 95%tibetans are illiterate.,no hospital,does u r parents read and write tibetans?

  • namook,,,poor means if u compare to other country or city.and u don;t know that before 1959 tibet how poor it is than now?

  • dorjelee,

    Why is Tibet poor?

    Who gets the benefits from the billions the Chinese government says it has invested in Tibet? Do U truely believe that the opportunities given to a Han Chinese & a Tibetan (TAR as well as the neighbouring provinces)is equal?

    What educational opportunity & what job prospects do Tibetans have?

    R Tibetans given the right to decide policies in Tibet?

    Does Jampa Phuntsok really have any real political power or is he just a political non-entity, a puppet to Beijing?

  • Tibet is poor becoz it lack of infrastructures or effeicient transport system. to develop those system will be a pain in ur narrow mind consider u treated those as cultural invation. Han Chinese n Tibetans indeed have generally equal opportunities and rights (except in some aspect law n regulations has been provided to favour tibetans to counteract the minor cultural disavantages)

  • actully young tibetan don't want to live in tibet,tibet is poor,weather is bad,thats why tibetans are running from tibet and chinese are coming to tibet.

  • Dorjelee:

    You are so misinformed. There are many many Tibetans that escape to Dharamsala in order to learn their own language. Many parents send their children to Dharamsala as well. Do you really think they would be risking their lives to do so and spending so much money just because the 'weather is bad'(which is completely untrue by the way)????????? Please use your head.

  • Evidence that China staged violence in Lhasa to discredit peaceful protests of Buddhist monks:

    A witness reports a Lhasa policeman disguised himself as Tibetan & joined protests with a knife in his hand. The witness also recognized him in BBC news & news photos PROVIDED BY CHINA

    On Mar 14 a Chinese woman from Thailand was sent to the police office where she saw a man with a knife in his hand walk in with arrested Tibetans. The man later took off the Tibetan clothes & put on a police uniform

  • This isn't the first time the CCP sent policemen to act as rioters in civilian protests to stir up violence & frame the protesters. In his Events in Lhasa March 2-10, 1989 , the Chinese journalist Tang Daxian revealed the CCP's intrigues in suppressing the 1989 protests in Tibet.

    According to the book, a few days after the Tibetans' peaceful protest, the CCP authorities sent out many special agents and plainclothes police disguised as civilians and monks to create a scene of rioting.

  • Quote:"On the dawn of March 5, the Armed Police in Tibet received the action order from the Chief Commander of Armed Police headquarter, Mr. Li Lianxiu....The Special Squad should immediately assign 300 members to be disguised as ordinary citizens and Tibetan monks, entering the Eight-Corner Street and other riot spots in Lhasa, to support plain-clothes police to complete the task. Burn the Scripture Pagoda ...Smash the rice store...incite citizens to rob rice and food..."

    FOR SHAME!

  • This is the reality... China must shame when they have face.....

  • The shitty china communist butchers will be doomed.....SOON...2009,2012

  • so we all want to know the truth! we should put more pressure on the chinese government to allow the journalists to investigate and report freely!

  • There are serious fears for the welfare & whereabouts of the group of monks who spoke out.

    The 3 major monasteries in Lhasa, Ganden, Sera, & Drepung, remained under lockdown today. Journalists weren't allowed to visit, despite repeated requests. Reliable reports indicate that the water has been cut off at Ganden, Sera and Drepung, & monks are running out of food. Local people aren't allowed to take food to them, and one source said monks who tried to leave Sera were forced back at gunpoint.

  • they are beasts before the Han Chinese

    they are lambs before the western journalist

  • so Han Chinese better leave them alone. Get out of Tibet to save your poor arses.

  • -.- considering how many monestries there are in Lahsa, it's not impossible the monks in this monestry is not involved

  • monks do not lie. their vows prohibit it. chinese govt. spokespeople do lie. their actions demand it.

  • monks do not lie. their vows prohibit it. chinese govt. spokespeople do lie. their actions demand it.

  • mswinwood:

    the monk were probably not trying to lie, but the may not know the truth. they may believe in the false stories.

  • the monks said they had been trapped inside the jokhang for more than two weeks. they would know. they said they're being accused of hitting, burning and destroying. they said they did not do it. they would know. what are the false stories they were referring to?

  • mswindwood:

    if they were trapped for two weeks, how can the witness the arrest and death as they said. How did they find out "1000 arrested, 100 dead and even saw dead body"? Use your head, OK?

  • no matter how they try, the authorities cannot stop the flow of information. today, these monks were not talking about 1000 arrested or 100 dead. they were talking about their imprisonment, and the fact that the officials were lying about them. that's right, specifically them. pls. do not try to confuse the facts. disinformation will not work any longer. the great wall is beginning to crumble, and through the cracks, splintered sunlight is finally beginning to shine through . thank you.

  • mswinwood:

    this video didn't show the part they claim the death and arrested number and even said they witness the death. But you can find it in other full version videos.

  • i'm sorry, will not engage with you any further. if you feel you must be the watchdog of this comment string, and convince viewers of your particular spin, i hope that one day, when you awaken, and can admit to yourself what has been taking place, you have the ability to understand what you've done, and honestly regret it.  good evening.

  • haha, when you hear there are evidence contradicting your view you stop engaging in discussion. Seems like that's something the pro-Tibetan terrorism people are really good at xD

  • there is nothing "haha" about what is happening in tibet. and a claim, perhaps true, likely not, of further evidence DOES NOT taint, disprove or contradict the claims of the monks. and the monks, and tibetan people have for the past decades been the victims of terror, and terrorists, not the perpetrators. thank you.

  • I'm not laughing at the Tibetans, I'm laughing at YOU. It's funny how you talk like you know it all then just suddenly give up after you hear there are evidences to prove you are wrong xD P.S. There's a big distinction between Tibetan people and those Tibetan terrorists, stop mixing it up. You speak of terror like you have evidence, where? Anything that's not fabricated by the "exiled government"?

  • your words, meant to be insulting, are words of fear and paranoia. each day the wall crumbles a little more, friend. buddhism teaches that everything is impermanent, always changing, and so it is for the repressive and arrogant chinese leadership. the entire world is watching now.

  • yeah and people are supposed to take the word of the communist government dictatorship? Please, the world will never trust the Communist Chinese Government, 95% of the things they spout are lies, or selected parts of the whole truth. There are countless examples of that.

  • monks don't lie? what a joke! try search "seven lies dalai"

  • monks don't lie? what a joke! try search "seven lies dalai"

  • I know the chinese gonvenment have a bad record, so nobody believe it. But remember, the world is not so simple as black and white. A liar's enemy may also be a liar. The enemy of a bad guy may also be bad or even worse. To find out the truth, don't just follow your emotion.

  • Heart wrenching.

    Buddhist monks crying for freedom... crying because their brothers are in jail.

    How can anyone watch the Olympics now without this in the back of their minds?

    "One World, One Dream"... what a disgusting mockery this slogan is.

  • the tibet riot has become an international champion of liars, which include chinese gonvenment, western media, tibet gonvenment in exile, monks, naive people

  • the monks claimed that there were 1000 arrest 100 killed and they even saw death body. However, they also said they were restricted in the monastery for two weeks, cannot go anywhere, cannot talk with anyone. Isn't it strange? If they cannot go anywhere, how do they know the death and arrest, how can they see the dead body?

  • zuoyezhideng: Because maybe they saw these things BEFORE they were locked in the monastery??! The rioting began on March 10.

    Honestly, it is absolutely astonishing to me that someone could steadfastly cling to their beliefs when they are presented with evidence refuting it. These monks are quite obviously telling the truth. Why on earth would they risk their lives otherwise???

    If we showed you an apple, but the CCP told it was an orange, I think you would just be insisting it is an orange.

  • ariell:

    in the video the monk claim the arrest and death happened on March 14, that's the reason why I feel strange.

  • ariell:

    As to the people who steadfastly cling to their beliefs, are you talking about yourself? there are plenty videos on youtube showing how the story was twisted. you choose not to believe them, but the self conflicting claim of those monk without any pic and video proof. BTW, I saw today quite a few major western media use the pic of Napel police beating tibetan as proof of chinese gonvenment violence again.

  • Ariell:

    It is quite obvious to me too that these monk believe they were telling the truth. But what people believe may not be the truth. Giving the situation that they have been isolated in the monastery for two weeks. Don't over estimate the judgement of regular people, for example, stupid American elected Bush twice, you can tell how good their judgment are from it.

  • So what if they speak in Chinese? Does it make any difference? What a loser!

  • How would you feel if you saw an American fighting for Al'qaeda? Wouldn't you feel even worse than you would if it was an Arab?

    How would you feel if you saw an African-American white-supremacist? Wouldn't that be even more absurd and ironic than just a Caucasian white-supremacist?

  • dingy: Oh honestly!!!! DO stop posting here with your foolish comments. What on EARTH would be the point of Chinese monks pretending to be Tibetan and complaining about how the Chinese are mistreating them????? Honestly, use your head!!! They are TIBETAN!!!! Many Tibetans can speak Tibetan and Chinese.

    You can watch the BBC clip where they SPECIFICALLY mention that the monks spoke in Chinese and Tibetan since you cannot seem to understand. Look for: BBC: Monks disrupt Tibet media trip

  • Thanks for providing your stupidity for my laughter benefit...LMAOOOOOO!!! Convince me even more of your Chinese arogance...seriously, I'm not answering you for there's no reasonable discussions--something that you don't get from the Chinese in general.

  • They BEGAN by speaking in Tibetan, and then switched to Mandarin so that they could be understood, okay? That's been reported ad nauseum in about 100,000 places. You only get your information from one, however, so I suppose you can be forgiven for your error.

  • Please dont comment here rubbish if you dont know anything about monks in tibet....In Tibet monks dont use to shave their heads always becoz of cold weather. They are speaking the truth but chinese government trying to hide them. shame

  • Crazy pseudo-Tibetan minds poisoned by religion.

  • WTF?! Those monks are not even Tibetan. They speak Chinese!

  • dingy: Of COURSE they are Tibetan!! They gave their statements in Tibetan AND Chinese

  • Well, which part is Tibetan? Do you understand Tibetan or Chinese? For all I can hear, it's completely Chinese. And they look Chinese, too.

  • Well, which part is Tibetan? Do you understand Tibetan or Chinese? For all I can hear, it's completely Chinese. And they look Chinese, too.

  • dingyilin, idiot they have spoken in chinese so that u idiots can understand what the hell going on tibet lhasa. They also said in tibetan too ..

  • Show me the Tibetan part, then. I hear no Tibetan. And they were not interviewed by Chinese, but by western journalists. Who are you calling idiots by?

  • when u dont understand tibetan,, dont say they are not speaking in tibetan...i think you are brainwashed by chinese evil government.

  • They are not westerner reporters idiot! I've seen a lengthier version of it in which the monks started off with Tibetan and the reporters had to ask them to speak in Chinese as they don't speak Tibetan and thus, the Chinese. If you'd like to know the truth...do your homework or else, take ignorance as a bliss. But anyways, so what if they are speaking Chinese? What's the hell is up in your numb-skull? Arghhhh...

  • i met a young tibetan at his early twenty in Dharmasala India to learn Tibetan.

    Give Tibetan freedom so they can stay in their land for religious and cultural pursuits~~

    TEBET WILL BE FREE~~

    TRUTH WILL PREVAIL NO MATTER HOW HARD CHINESE TRY TO C0VER THE TRUTH~~

  • WTF dingyilin i think you are not a chinese you are writing english..ha ha ha laugh

  • Bless them for their bravery.

    China, you can throw up all the smoke and mirrors you like, yet people of conscience will never believe your lies. We know that these courageous monks ARE telling the truth.

  • Now, the world sees the true face of china!These brave monks face prison and torture, if the international community doesnt act now, it is guilty as well! Act Now!

    Free Tibet!

  • free tibet

  • I greatly admire these brave young monks for spoeaking out.

  • Maybe China hasn't figured out the world is round?

    Wrong is Wrong and the World see's it !!!

    i hope theres some kinda human right reps there too get monks information for there protection!!

  • These monks are so desperate and so brave. Every one who has not a heart of stone can see that they are telling the truth.

  • More and more truth will be revealed and until then, Chinese can blame and label us all they want with their close-mindedness. One prime example is that Chinese officer dressed as a Tibetan with sword in his hand--caught by a truth and revealed.

    Every major sites have Chinese uploading propaganda videos and these should be taken seriously as any average people doesn't know much about the real situation in Tibet under the Chinese repressive government.

  • i have been following this for a while, but to my dissatisfaction i have not seen some chinese people leaving positive comments about the minority case in china.

  • Can you make any positive comment on Bin Laden or 911 hijackers? Do you want to praise terrorism? You cannot find anything praiseworthy about it, unless you are brainwashed or brain-damaged.

  • Say what? LOL! Chinese convinces me more and more everytime how stupidly dumb and arrogant they are.....oh, and also they define the word HYPOCRITE.

  • you are right the brainwashed people with their gayass pride redefine the word HYPOCRITE..

    that is why the minorities in china always say one can never reason with a chinese..because no matter how reasonable u sound they are always more reasonable than u hahaha

  • Exactly and hence, my liberal view of them went out the window and something that I always tried avoiding possessed me unfortunately.
