Tibetans Protest China's Torch Relay Launch

[TheKarmacola]

Chinka kiss my Tibetan ass :P

[Globalvisual]

There is a lesson for all Xizang ethnic minorities (formerly called Tibetans) that 99.999% of the world's peoples believes that Xizang province is a part of China. The 2008 Beijing Olympics Games has been very, very successful and the Best in History. It made many billions of people in this world Happy. On the other hand, all those people who tried to disrupt the Beijing Olympics had been Unsuccessful and many are feeling ashamed about their cowardly actions now including Steven Spielberg.

[ChinaKillsNuns]

Delete spam from Globalvisual and asilcotza.

Listen to university professors. They will tell you that Tibet and China are 2 separate countries.

[ChinaKillsTibetans]

Replacing Tibetan words with made up chinese words is part of the cultural genocide in Tibet.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) should never have accepted the chinese communist party's bid for the Olympics in the first place.

IOC get your act together. There are genocides happening around the world and you did nothing to stop them.

Shame on the International Olympic Committee !!!!!

Flame of Shame

Shame on the Government of China !!!!!

[magix93]

those fuckin guys in the trainers have no right at all to touch anyone!!

[sharfins]

think those who like to protest are those who are over-fed,and have nothing to do and they used their excess energy to make the hoohaa here and there.I never see any under-fed African countries holding any protest.I read the news about 3 white cops pumped 50 shots into a poor black innocent guy,and the 3 white cops just acquitted and walk out free,what a disgusting human right record in the country that champions human right!Look into the mirror and see your own ugly face.

[snowwhitewaiting]

the owner of slaves could never come back. stop play drama on the world.

[ChinaKillsTibetans]

Before the chinese communist party invaded independent Tibet 60 years ago there were indentured farmers in Tibet, but NO slaves.

[conneda]

What a spaz. Free Tibet my ass. Bet half of them can't even find Tibet on a map. Free Vietnam (paper tiger mess), free USSR (look what a mess that made), free Iraq (still a mess), today it's free Tibet. Hit and run democracy, gotta love it.

[jimdorj]

China is the best of the world ! You know why ? Because we, Chinese, eat NOT only dog,cat,living monkey. We also eat a just-born baby girl. It is very healthy, and gives a power to us. 広東省佛山 is the restaurant we recommend. It also contributes us to decrease people. How smart Chinese people are ! Not like you, Westerners ! You envy us ? Ha,ha. Here is the truth. tinyurl(.)com(/)5q7jw7 Tibet people are slave for China. Don't blame our domestic issue ! GO, GO, CHINA !

[nickel5online]

The chinese people are the most oprressed by the CCP I prey for their intelectual and moral freedom.

[pescesardinazzz]

FREE TIBET !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pescesardinazzz]

FREE TIBET !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pescesardinazzz]

ANSA) - BRUSSELS, APR 19 - The Slovenian presidency of the European Union has no intention to invite the Dalai Lama for a meeting of the EU Council to Bruxelles.E 'what can be read in a communiqué EU but' does not rule out contacts' with the spiritual leader of Tibet 'at other levels'. The note and 'was issued after a meeting in Ljubljana, Foreign Minister Dimitrij Rupel Slovenian with Chinese Ambassador Guan Chengyuan, special envoy of Chinese Prime Minister

[fluidin]

I can't see why all the Chinese are trying to seperate both issues. They want the pride of being able to host the Olympics, and a smooth relay. BUT, do they really deserve that if they cannot even take care of basic human rights first? If you do not take care of these contradictory issues first, you FUCKING DO NOT DESERVE to host the damned Olympics.

[oliverbutterfield]

Free CHINA

[dyoutse]

china is always free! just get out of tibet!!!

be a nice human being.

[nilnil55]

FUKIN CHINA!! the world's most SHAMEFUL AND EMBARRASING pre-olympic events in history!!! SHAME ON CHINESE FACE!

YES FREE TIBET!!! DON'T SUFFER UNDER CHINESE RULE NO MORE!! YOU GUYS DESERVE MUCH BETTER THAN THIS!

[s10fisto01]

why you are exactly right! THEY don't deserve what they get! man you are so right! i never thought of it like that!

WHAT THEY DON'T DESERVE IS HALF THE COUNTRY AS THEIR GODDAMN RESERVATION, BILLIONS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR IN AID, COMPASSIONATE HAN PEOPLE SUPPORTING THEM WITH DONATIONS OF HARD EARNED MONEY. AND THEY MOST DIFFINATELY DON'T DESERVE WARNING SHOTS, SYMPATHY, LENIENT COPS, REWARDS FOR NOT CONTINUING CRIME, AND 5 FUCKING DAYS TO SURRENDER WITHOUT ACTION.

[ChinaKillsTibetans]

"BILLIONS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR IN AID, COMPASSIONATE HAN PEOPLE SUPPORTING THEM WITH DONATIONS OF HARD EARNED MONEY."

If Tibet is costing the Government of China or ANYONE else in China money, PLEASE LEAVE Tibet TODAY !!!!!

The chinese communist party IS NOT WELCOME in Tibet and has not be welcome in Tibet for 60 years !!!!!

The Corrupt Chinese Communist Party has been TORTURING, KILLING and doing all sorts of other nasty things in Tibet since the invasion of independent Tibet 60 years ago.

[splittist]

FREE TIBET from the hegemonic CCP!

[ozzywong]

FREE CORSICA !

For many for sponsors?

Why it is so impotent?

Action against Olympic games in China are not against,... there are for something....

[imnotacow]

damn you tibet, you ruined the torch relay

[ChinaKillsTibetans]

Dalai Lama is a liar. Read the article written by an Indian, who should have no sympathy for China either. See how people think when they see the real modern tibet!

Frontline： TIBET - A REALITY CHECK

[ChinaKillsTibetans]

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.

[nanarchives]

N. RAM writes, after a five day visit to the Tibet Autonomous Region of China.

"The sky is turquoise, the sun is

golden,

The Dalai Lama is away from the Potala,

Making trouble in the west.

Yet Tibet's on the move.''

FOR an Indian in Tibet who has no sympathy whatsoever for the Dalai Lama's separatist, revanchist and backward-looking agenda, this passable adaptation of an old Tibetan song seems to fit contemporary realities.

[Ganeschar]

So what ?

I met many indien people who didn't like

Gandhi !

[zuoluo72]

everyone have the right to say something. the problem is cnn have only one ear and the other is deaf. so cnn use picture(be cut) make all western people deaf. how pity american and shame on cnn!

[EleRealm]

I love how everyone ruins the spirit of the olympics for their ridiculous little protests. I thought this was a time for when countries become one, compete, and bond. Of course people have to prove the "peace" by attacking the Chinese and creating unnecessary tension between everyone. People have been taking over other countries and territories since the beginning of time, why is it any of our business?

[34ms]

What is spirit of Olympic games? Peace? Human wrights?

For what we need Olympic games at all?

Little protests? So what? In Nazi Germany there where no protests at all, so on in Stalinist Russia, or in North Korea now, so they are wright because nobody protest?

China want to manifest their power and arrogance, but Olympic games is not Chinese product, it is not yours, so fuck off...

[Ganeschar]

it is already ruined, long before - it has become a hug business!

[gtvexx]

free tibet!

free tibet!

china free!

china free!

[Chowdder]

Tibet has been part of China since 1700s during the Qing Dynasty. It was reacquired by the communist party after decentralization during WWI and the civil war with Kuomingtan. So in effect, Tibet has been part of China longer than America has been a country. Human rights can be an issue that will be dealt with in the future, but Tibet will not be an independent nation from China.

[warwheelz]

[AdvenWonder01]

China is showing their true red communist colors. Free TIbet. Stop the insanity!

[saltlakecity2002]

Tibet protesters are ruining the peace and unity of the Olympics!

[dtenzin]

we have proof of what happened in the past and what is still going on. those protestors who cant point out where tibet is aren't only there for Free Tibet but for simply human rights too. Stop writing Bull shits here and educate yourself on Human rights. Also majority of you chinese people are brain washed by your own government

[Yaoding]

That's interesting to see how ignorant people fooled by "free media" and protested the torch relay, ask them what really happened in Tibet or simply where is Tibet, I bet 50% protestors don't know--they joined in the demonstration like running a party.

[vuthanh7]

People around the world see china as a big TOILET. Everyone in the world can take a shit. Hahahaha...

[dtenzin]

for all those who are talking nonsense. you guys have no right in saying anything. all should try to be in Tibetans shoes and you will know what it feels like. How would you feel if someone were to take over your country and had no what so ever freedom. for sweetlan9639. Watch what your writing. Be respectful of his holiness. FREE TIBET!

"The Shadow of the Dalai Lama"

-by Victor und Victoria Trimondi

Google it and read.

[orangemarkerpen]

There is no equal sign between ''respecting human right'' and ''free Tibet''. Tibet is a part of China, so I think when people ask China to respect human right, they should also learn how to respect a country. Btw, I guess some people saying ''Free Tibet'' can't even point out where Tibet is in a map.

Global Torch Relay Disruption Alliance Group.

Goal: Disrupt the Olympic Torch Relay.

Objective: Through Disruption cause the World's Media to focus on China's Human Rights abuses and not on the Olympics.

Ultimate Goal:

Force Beijing & IOC to cancel Torch Relay.

FREE TIBET.

[sweetlan9639]

Those dirty , poor knowldege guys . You are not heros your dirty riot thugs want to draw the world eys just in order to get money from US and UK . Also shame on France , poor country that couldnt have enough force to let the relay go smoothly there . Also Dalai Lama is a big liar with double faces . He is not a real Buddhist and religious person . He is a beggar walking around the world for political reasons with GUCCI on his feet . Go an see what he wrote to Mao in 50s. Shame on Him.

[dhx3000]

Then Palestinians lost their country for 50 years and even 1000 years because they protest the God-will! Jews put Jesus on cross then they were in slave more than 1000 year. God-will should be respect otherwise will be punished! Paris will be punished because the mayor and president

[Ganeschar]

Using the torch this way is almost a crime. This is the property of the IOC, it is not a Chinese torch

I think some Tibetan monks DID try to yell at Chinese communist police. So did some students in Tiananmen Square. They are dead now.

[jojojing]

How do u know that? through media? were u there urself?

[GiveUpIndependence]

中国当时二战时期重新占领西藏意图很明显，这不就和西游记里如来­佛把孙悟空压在五行山下一样吗？任凭他怎么叫嚷都没用。等五百年­以后和唐僧一起归依佛门吧！幸好很多西藏人本来就是所谓的佛教焦­土，归化起来应该不会太费力！不过大家记住，收妖需要耐心和时间­的，相信如来佛的能力以及孙悟空的悟性！

如果觉得有道理希望加以推广，如果有高人能翻译成英语更好！

[sweetlan9639]

Those dirty Dalai Lama's riot thugs who didnt know the past of Tibet has no right to do this . Dalai Lama is a liar . he is not a real Buddhist .He just uses the event to draw the eyes on him in order to get more money from westeners , he is fed by US, UK . How much do you know the past of Tibet , he was a killer and killed many of his fellow guys while he was there . Stop marring the event, the only sport game chance every 4 years for athletes to show their performerce to the world .Stop !

[pubby1]

This cannot be stopped by the olympic committee or by governments.A boycott of the games by governments would not help. The athletes themselves need to step forward in protest. refuseing to go or going and refuse to compete.Better still Win and refuse the medal! what a hero. This will teach china freedom. pass this idea to any athlete you know.

[yyyiyi]

craps

[dakarateboi]

Free Tibet!

Pee on Olympic Beijing!

Communists are always the LIARS. Communism has died in USSR. Communist Chinese are cheating their innocent Chinese people in occupying the adjacent countries in ASIA such as Tibet, Taiwan,North Korea, Vietnam, Japan, Burma, Laos. Stop your bloody hands on Tibetan now!

Boycott OLYMPIC SHAME BEIJING!

[nellie876]

Are you Chinese? No? Then shut up and speak for youself. Chinese communism may have problems but at least they've also proven themselves affective at building it up to the success it's become. Which also means many of its people are much better off. And have you ever actually been to China? In some ways, it's a lot more free feeling than in the US. Trying yelling a cop in the USA and see what happens. Even cops in so called communist China aren't as mean.

[nellie876]

Oh Communists are always LIARS? What's this? What's B-U-S-H? Pot calling the kettle black?

And how many innocents in IRAQ have died because the USA is "saving" them from oppression? And as for communism dying in USSR, so much good that's done. Another USA instigation and then it just up washes its hands when the USSR falls apart. For the USA, it was good because cold war threat gone. For USSR? Who cares if its economy collapses as long as they have "democracy", right?

[13660799]

Go fuck yourself!Stop shitting! You know nothing about Asia!Sucker

fuck you tibetan barbarian, if CHina did not build you you still backward slave society you uncivilized chimp, you do not know how to appreciate but you certainly know how to deceive, so get fuck out of my country!

[candyard1]

Please define communist? China is no longer communist... if not, why is there are so many rich people in China... and afford to send their kids to study overseas?

do u guys know one child policy doesn't apply to ethnic minority? Tibetian can have as many children as they want, and ppl in Tibet do not pay tax, as their land is diffult to farm, they cannot feed themselves. It is the chinese goverment who feed them...

[mountainofthelord]

Oh really! And I supose you are the expert on these matters? Wake up and see the light , dickhead!

[coongnoo]

Communist killed 100 million people. The world hates communists. Chinese children are brainwashed to know nothing about that. Excep the fallacy of Ignorance.

If evil such as Stalin, Hitler, Mao, HCM, and other communists come to you and say they are good now, they promise never do bad act, never kill any one. Please doubt about it because their evil nature may return at any time.

It is the same as where tsunami, earthquake, flood had destroyed everything, it will happen again

[coongnoo]

Little, Midle, Big tyrants are supported by one Super-Tyrant. Super-Tyrant survive because it is smart enough to buy/paralyze other governments, other big organization.

Unfortunately for China, this is the war of non-government people around the world fight against the last super-tyrant, the giant brutal communist. If the World can beat down this monster, all other problem surely be resolved: Burma, Vietnam, Lao, Cambodia, North Korea, Iran, Palestine, Cuba Africa, Darfur, Mekong River, Oil

[jignam85]

thanx for all the support guys..free tibet free tibet!

[mountainofthelord]

Free Tibet! Disrupt the torch relay! This must be mightily embarrasing for China seeing so much opposition and protests against the torch relay! I have never seen anything like this for an olympic event! Maybe those communist barstards should get a taste of their own medicine now! I will be dispupting the torch relay when it comes to Canberra, Australia and so will many others! The games will be remembered as the most protested in history! Free Tibet from thoses communist barstards

[dhx3000]

The Torch is coming from God, when your country and people welcome the Torch peacefully your country and their people will get the bless from GOD. But DaLai Lama is anti-GOD, don't trust him!

[SouthStreetStudio]

dhx3000 is saying that the leader of the most compassionate people on earth is anti-god !!! Are you kidding me! So subjecting people to abuse and torture is holy dhx3000?

[dhx3000]

You know how many sex salves dalai have? the half of ten thousand which were the nuns fled to abroad fucked by Dalai. The tibetans abroad are the products of great dalai fucking work. These days united states of american has been cracking down these same religious organization in which one man has more than two hundred wifes. USA had done same task as China fifty years ago.

[rkharty]

uhg shush

[dhx3000]

That is why dalai is anti-god-will! Do you want to free tibet? when tibet is free then DaLai will fuck the humman's wife as sex slaves and produce more dalai terrorists. We humman in God's will should stand up before and destroy the Dalai Clique.

[eyeswideopentravel]

Incredible that one man can stir up such a commotion. This man obviously holds some power, enough to shake the very roots of the Chinese goverment. I reckon like in most occupied countries, sooner or later there will be a revolution.. Viva Revolution!

being one of the sole members here who has the right to commune with the gods, i would say they spit on the chinese government for their crimes. it's actually the reason the world will end they way it does. they dont care about the olympics. they care about the oppression and genocide. so before you go comment about how its an insult to greece and its pantheon, remember that you filthy humans dont deserve to say their names.

damn they hid the torch root in SF soo the torch guy wouldn't get his ass kicked lol

the worst terrorist in the whole wide world.

[believekarma]

hey torch guys. we will see you in san francisco. You guys are done. unless you have 1 million armys with you.. And the fake body guards (track suits) we will beat you up.

[wellyme2002]

bring it on!

[BDotBoom]

I couldn't understand the speaker - who was beating up the guy? Security?

I keep hearing we don't know what's really going on, we have a biased view, China is good to the Tibetans, etc, but if that's true why are they censoring thier own people from youtube and google? Why are they kicking out all international reporters and foreigners? If China has nothing to hide then it shouldn't be trying to.

[APandBS]

BDotBoom, I thought i replied to your comment but it has not appeared, I apologise if it does later. The plain clothes [tracksuit] police were restraining a protester who ran at the vans, see the look of fear on the crowds face? they reacted admirable, what if he were someone more sinister?

Anyway, we do have a biased media which harkens back to Cold War McCarthy era reportage of the Evil Reds. China has far advanced & is amazingly modern in places though is a huge country with huge population

[BDotBoom]

Of course our media is biased - even without your points, China wasn't giving us any information, but the Gov-In-Exile was. That would be one-sided. The media takes whatever it can get it's hands on. BUT, if they had of been giving info it would have been reported. It probably would have still had a biased edge, but it would be there. And look and the journalists they just let in, there wouldn't have been any interviews with monks if they hadn't stormed the press conference.

[BDotBoom]

The Chinese media is worse than ours. We have access to their news if we want, but they don' have access to ours. Last I heard they were still black screening all related news reports and maintaining internet blocks. I know which bias I would prefer. Plus, since we're awear of it we can search for other views. The Chinese people can't.

[rhinesee]

I am a Han chinese, and i think the answer to your question is:

the government don't want han-chinese to know that not few tibetans hate han and want them out. The hate between folks could be harmful and leads to intense collision.

[epsilonwolf]

I'm Chinese American. I know a lot about Tibet. The American government does not release official government news or "correct thinking on issues" like China does. Americans educate themselves through open access to international news and open access to books (even banned ones) from around the world. We all form our own different opinions. I for one support the right to free speech. I support the Tibetan right to be angry and to let the world know.

[maxten]

slavery in Tibet is a lie and that Michael Parenti is an obsessed atheist who will keep on attacking every religion in the world. he hasnt even talked to tibetans how Tibet was and how they felt.

[saveme1232]

NEVER FREE TIBET AFTER THIS::... motherfuckers want china to look bad?? we fhking never let u go...

[nerchung]

Saveme1232 ! AS if you (being chinese) citizen have some power to decide! Tibet fate will be deicided by Tibetains no one else ....just a matter of time !! Why did you nation censor this video ? why not your people are not informed ! Can you do anything about it ? forget you letting tibet free..think about ur own right

[APandBS]

Congo4life great comment, simple, justified, objective and factual which means the FREE TIBET Gang are gonna mark you DOWN lol

I keep trying to find out what "Free Tibet" exactly means, what will they get?

But those crazy terrorists mark my comments as spam lol

ANSWER MY QUESTION FIRST!!!!!!!!

[Congo4life]

this is getting out of hand, China have always been generous to Tibet, Lama refugees (former Tibetan Slave Owners) are all around the world trying hard to bring back slavery to Tibet and make it a feudal state again.

[nerchung]

Where does your knowlede about tibet and lama come from ? Your government ?? Who released a news all through this week--world leaders and organziation support China (national headlines for last few days)..you saying lama-slave etc is tantamount to some chinese saying with confident that during tibet unrest --whole world was with China --btw who is with you --Nepal, India and Pakistan ?? Countries with great records of human right !!

[APandBS]

Damn tibetan terrorits!

how can they dare to desecrate such an ancient event!?!?!

The Olympics is NOT political!! protest somewhere else stop killing chinese in tibet and sichuan focus protest against the Govt.

[tenzinchoegyal]

what do u know about tibet.. from your comment i feel you are simply a frog from well. come out man.. read out and learn more about what is tibet and what is china.. who killing whom,, yeh offcourse tibetan are bit furious but you chinese are killing tibetans in drakeness.. thats a things to be ashamed of...

[APandBS]

Firstly, I'm not Chinese, I'm English.

Secondly, I am a second year University student reading Asia-Pacific Studies. There my friend, out of the well, right?

China has done harm in Tibet, I agree, but it is not the sole perpetrator. What about Britain, Russia even the US?

Why single out China? Just because of the Olympics and because the Dalai Lama has been a pawn of the west since he was a boy wondering at Western inventions. Also what is so special about Tibet? what about East Timor? Nepal?

[Opinion23]

Very well, you just managed to prove what an ignorant you are. Congratulation...Glad you feel proud of being a second year University student, unfortunately that didn't help you to broaden your view about world, only about yourself and your possibly (in the past)badly beaten ego. Well done you just managed to make me sign up for YouTube, I really felt like I need to reply to the poor soul you are.

[APandBS]

Opinion23 you signed up for Youtube specially?

Well what did you reply? some assumptions about my past, have we met? Alot of condescending remarks. And yet not one answer to my comments. Talk about narrow horizons... look within yourself my friend.

[Opinion23]

My dear I havent signed up to answer to your comments...if you havent gathered.Ive signed up for the reasons I specified in my message for you.

It would be very pointless to argue or discuss anything with someone who has such a strong opinion about themselves. I think that at this point you need to take a deep breath and just try to forget about me and quickly get back to your studies :)

[Opinion23]

It is great to study I don't deny that, but for some people such as yourself it is pointless as it doesn't seem to have any effect on your personality apart from the urge to spread information that is embedded in your mislead brain. Facts are surely very important but not necessary true and in case such as Tibet-China you have proven this theory....well think of it, how did you get to know about your facts? Who is creating statistic and who writes books....

[Opinion23]

people yes no one else then people with their own embedded emotions or their leaders watching over them (does it remind you of yourself). I am very sorry to read that you are one of many people who don't have feelings or opinion based on yourself & your perhaps heart (if you happen to posses such thing).Good luck in your constructed life hope it will work out for you...might well do in the country you come from...

[Opinion23]

(Now you might argue on this as we all know you are student who cares about other countries LOL really nice manoeuvre to make yourself sound great and popular perhaps in the society you happen to live and move within)Mind you there are also normal caring people in UK so hopefully they will have their say in statistics and information which would be preserved for the future generations...

[APandBS]

Well, well Opinion23 what have you done except critise me? you make lots of assumptions about me alot of useless comments eg "I am very sorry to read that you are one of many people who don't have feelings or opinion based on yourself & your perhaps heart (if you happen to posses such thing)" I am beginning to think you are just a 12yo kid talking sh*t. you have stated no viewpoint (I guess you are pro-Tibet) why not take a balanced view, this is all I have done man.

[APandBS]

Ask yourself WHY? WHY did so much of the UK news focus on Tibet and not our 10p in the pound Tax cut making poorer people suffer. WHY did so much of the US media focus on Tibet when their own country dove into recession because of unscrupulous bankers and the war in IRAQ?? WHY did CNN and German media crop images of the riots to make it seem there was more brutality from china.

[APandBS]

Can you give the evidence that China is killing so many Tibetans? Why would it do this in the first place when it trys so hard to keep it as China? Do you deny the minority race benefit paid to Tibetans by the government? what about the free education?

Take a look at pictures from under Dalai Lama's era and now. The difference is a clean modern country. This situation has blown out of control due to western governments agenda's. Do Tibetans really want to be their pawns against communism?

[APandBS]

Tibetans like to say the riots were targeted against the "colonising" Han chinese, however the majority of damage was against Muslim Hui minority. Innocent Chinese people were killed by rioters but it is writen in with the supposed 100 that were killed by the police/army. Where is the evidence for this further killing no-one can tell me, but they keep shouting this number as if it means something...well I guess now it does, a non-substanciated claim has become fact, very 9/11 isn't it?

No kind of demonstration or political, religious or racial propaganda is permitted in any

Olympic sites, venues or other areas.

------"Olympic Charter, Rule 51.3"

[nerchung]

Chater also says that Olympic is a symbol of peace and respect for human right ! Where is that ? If the main objetive is not met, how abt the rules ?

[veresh]

good one nerchung :)

[naranja18she]

nice one, man

[Congo4life]

Human right??? Doesn't Tibet have enough human rights from being freed from the Lamas??? Lamas had the Tibetans chained into poverty and slavery, shame on the Tibetans who aren't thankful for Chinese who liberated them!

[nerchung]

Where does your knowlede about tibet and lama come from ? Your government ?? Who released a news all through this week--world leaders and organziation support China (national headlines for last few days)..you saying lama-slave etc is tantamount to some chinese saying with confident that during tibet unrest --whole world was with China --btw who is with you --Nepal, India and Pakistan ?? Countries with great records of human right !!

[veresh]

boycott olympics

[dyoutse]

i agree

[cathybefore]

This is ridiculous. Tibetan activists killed Han civillians, destroyed public and private properties and now they are asking for appology? Shame on you! And it is a shame that they got so much support from international society, especially medias, just because they are against China.

[nerchung]

How much you know about Tibet ? If you know lot, how do you know -from your school book histroy prepared by Govt ! Wat you know about tibet from alternative source ????

[cathybefore]

nerchung, to answer your question, I am from China and I used to have classmates from Tibet. Now it's my turn to ask you question, where did you gain your knowledge of Tibet from? Novel? Western medias which dislike China? Have you ever been to Tibet? Did you ever talk to local Tibetan people? Please note, Tibet activists and local Tibetan people are quite different and activists cannot stand for all Titetan people.

[mayyoubekind]

China's repression of Tibet's ethnic minority must bear the blame for the widespread protests

[veresh]

Have u ever counted number of Tibetans killed by Hans. Count them and then say who should be shameful.

[jimdorj]
