  • One of stupidest decisions the Mongol Khans have done was to adopt Islam...set their descendants back hundreds of years

  • i came here from silkroad online lol

  • Only the simple minded live in the past. Oh snap... :P

  • nice clip of people on the edge of development...

  • China is not an empire. Neither is the USA. All empires are temporary anyway. How do you mean the US is `going to collapse`?

  • FUCK MODERNITY ! Chinese PRC local govt are retarded in modernizing China, they demolish all historical sites worth of cultural values to build it into some "artificial western like commercial buildings" but end up looking like trademark watered down PRC concrete crap.

    FUCK, what the fuck is wrong with the art-senses of PRC officials??

    They have no sense of aesthetics and cultural appreciation unlike the ancient Tang Song Ming Dynasties

  • Bandito: "The united states of america is going to collapse soon." Your dream might not get true, and i´m happy that not having dreams like yours.

  • thanks for the vedio clip.

  • China is an old civilization and a re-awakening empire. It will be the next superpower. The united states of america is going to collapse soon. it is just a temporary empire. it will fall apart and the 3rd world of today is going to look like paradise compared to what the americas will look like after the coming financial and economic collapse.

  • @BanditoXYZ192 That will never happen for the fact that the white man is planning to kill 1 billion Chinese through race specific bio-weapons in the coming years. Read about "the anglo-saxon mission."

  • @endofsuffering83

    if that is gonna happen again, which have happened before indirectly caused by you bastards in the last century, we might as well have to kill you first to end all suffering.

    anglos are the scums of the earth - cause of all sufferings across mankind....

    "kill an anglo a day keeps the cockroaches away"....

  • @bigfatdick5000 Bigfatdick just about sums you up.

  • Comment removed

  • @BanditoXYZ192 I am Chinese descent. The United States isn't going to collapse any time soon, unfortunately at least not in this century. I am a masters students majoring in International Relations somewhere here in Boston (top school in the world). US and China's bilateral relationship will be a critical key for world order for the rest of this century. China is playing US's set game but US also *have* to let China play this game in order to continue the game..

  • @BanditoXYZ192 china may have shiny new buildings and people own cars instead of bicycle, but nothing else have changed. because it's still a communist regime. you also mutilate your female children, like barbarians. no free markets, cannot critize the government, spitting everywhere, bad hygiene. you said its an old civilization, so is india, israel, egypt, iraq, turkey, greece, italy. the cars you make are POS. and you think you are going to be a superpower. keep dreaming.

  • @len0808 i dont think they think they're going to be a superpower, i think they know they're going to be.

    everybody else thinks so too. and if you ask me, in terms of superpower talks, i never had heard the chinese leadership say they will be a superpower. they're not a talkative bunch, i recon.

    and they're communist anymore. please, dont be naive. shiny building and a lot of money doesn't fit with communism.

  • @len0808 i meant to say that theyre not communist anymore.

  • I WONDER IF THERE IS OIL IN THIS DESERT

  • china is composed of more than 56 different cultures

    uygurs (east turkistan), tibetans(tibet), mongols, koreans (manchuria), turks, vietnamese (paracel islands) etc....

    all cultures stolen here and there..

    what the hell is chinese? :)

    yes,chinese culture mixed many kinds of different cultures.

    and "stolen"?what is mean?maybe u dont understand what the big country mean ,and what the diversification mean.

  • at least they didn't kill a ton of them and shove the rest onto reservations like America did =D (sarcasm...but true right??)

  • Is there jealousy when China try to modernize her own nation for the better of all?

  • あなたは何か知うですくあなたは何か知っ?

  • Long live the Chinese and Chinese unity.

  • The most nationalists are those who study abroad, not inside china. Why?!?

    Because the closer you get to the west, the more truth about the west you will find

    -- A mean, greedy, resentful heart under a well dress ....

  • I love it when White western cry about occupation, yet they jailed the most people and destroyed Native American cultures, kidnaps kids to assimilated them, put bondage slaves and didn't have universal suffrage before 1965. People in glass house shouldn't throw rocks.

  • most of westerners talk about "human right"in the protection of their american dady.and the westerners talked about"human right"when their armies was plundering the oil,killing the innocent people and raping the young girls in iraq~

    just hypocrisy~~the western countries!

  • Democracy in the US only exist within the borders of the US. Internationally, the US is far from democratic.

  • single state communist party of China is far better than your two party democracy which is destined to doom.

  • @Xakryn, very well said. Actually, Tibet was a slavery state before 1949. Dalai Lama himself was the leader of slave masters..

  • Al Jazeera is excellent

  • They build silk roads while occupying Tibet. They should focus on establishing peace.

  • What has Tibet got to do with anything? It is not the center of the universe you know.

  • Tibet Tibet Tibet, wa wa wa, don't you guys have anything better to do besides complaining about Tibet.

  • I speak out against any occupation whether it be Palestine, Chechnya, or Tibet.

    Honestly, why don't you just give up Tibet? What are you losing? China has lots of land, plenty of labor, and a virtual economic independence.

  • First, ShiaAfghan, Tibet exile government was supported by Indian government and it was once supported by CIA during the Cold War

    (Imagine the relationship between India and Pakistan and you will know why i am talking about) and that is why China don't trust in Tibetans.

    Second, I think that Muslims, like you, should care more about your Muslim brothers who are humiliated, tortured and murdered in East Turkistan by Chinese government rather than Tibetan people.

  • Shia Afghan...I suppose your country is buring in fire and you talking about tibetan liberation...why dont you first liberate your own country from foreign invasion.

  • You are probably another guy who cried "free Tibet" but cannot find Tibet on the world map.

    Silk Road is the path from China to West Asia (Afghanistan, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Iraq, and many countries you cannot recognize) and Tibet is NOT on the Silk Road. Stupid!

  • Tibet was part of China long before Europe colonize America. Now look at Tibet and America, Native American make up less than 2% of America and literally lost their cultural and language. Tibet on the otherhand retain their cultural,language and religion. Who is the real bad guy in this?

  • Tibet for having an old caste system government.

    China for its horrible human rights abuses.

    Usa for its horrible human rights abuses.

    Europe for colonialism.

    Dicks everywhere, I don't fucking pick side.

  • Hey, don't confuse chinese and US human right abuses. The US actually used to stand for liberty, something that China in its brightest hour still does not. The US was a country that stood for personal liberty and it changed the whole world, it was more than just a temporary superpower. China even today is at the bottom of the list in terms of its respect for human rights. The US fell from its top, but its legacy will live on.

  • Yes i agree with you, liberty used to mean something but now it's warped into another mindless consumer based ideal. China has a long way to go for human rights, I admit they came a loong way since the 70s but they need to improve on their many human rights abuses.

  • US stands for liberty only on paper and tv. In actuality, US stands for greed. Liberty in America is limited by class and racism. Liberty is limited if are non-whites. There is no human rights, unless there is wealth. Human rights is the right to sustain oneself. Only after the US became rich that they gave the blacks human rights. Where were you when the blacks were denied everything from housing to jobs to the right to vote. So STFU already.

  • I guess all those immigrants agreed with you too. The country was built on immigration and people willing to work for a better life. The slavery issue, half the world did it. Yes it should have been rectified sooner. But the country offered opportunity to anyone who came to the country. The US is over 200 years old, it might have degenerated in the last 60 years, but don't let history get in your way of US bashing. You make it sound as if the country was founded by devils.

  • u can't compare slavery in the new world with wat other countries did tha africans forcefully taken from their homes entire ethnic groups were wipe out. the racial subjugation and afteermath of the whole thing is not easily explainable to someone who is not descended from them

  • no China changed the world, it has been the center of civilization for two millenium.

    US is just a temporary superpower, like so many of its predecessors, it will fall. All the moral and social corruptions we are witnessing now are just the prelude.

    China will stand, like it has always been, an immortal phoenix, it may perish, but only to be reborn.

  • HAha, what? You're a fool. I bet you never even spent the majority of your life in China. Your knowledge of China is as deep as the history books and government reports. You have no idea what's going on there.

  • I was in China until 15 years of age, I knew nothing about the country? you are JOKING.

  • Now now, I'm Chinese too, but its this kind of hubris and blind love of China that will bring down China. True china may have been the center of civilization before, and will be a superpower soon, but let us remember that Chinese history has many episodes of shame and failure. Let us be proud but humble.

  • Thats why we should not forget the past, its just like if your becoming rich you should never forget about what its like if your poor, if you forget about it then you will more likely become spoil and your wealth will fall just like a great civilization will fall after it reaches so high because it failed to understand its past.

  • @strongestass

    yes, china can change the world, like as a center of civilization for the world like the ancient times, but not unless the PRC government initiate change and revive Chinese culture . right now it's going nowhere. its producing 1.3 billion 'hollow minded' people. unlike ancient times, chinese people were well educated in the arts and culture, has a thirst for quality. right now they 're like monotonous clones who can't think.

  • @bigfatdick5000 I understand your idea, but still : think that chinese people are living individuals, with hopes and dreams just like the others, everyone has a personality... From the West, we often have the impression of chinese being "mindless clones", but let us think for a moment : who needs us to think so, and how do they orient our opinion over that distant country and its people ?

  • 'Tibet occupation' again.

    Hey did u check when this 'occupation' start?

    The written record of Tibet being part of China is longer than the history of USA.

    I really worry when a ShiaAfghan is successfully brainwashed by Western geopolitical propaganda.

    Hey man do u know in the Tibet March riots, the mosques belonging to Hui Muslims were destroyed by Tibetan rioters?

    You still want to sympathize with them..?

  • Really interesting piece

  • ya pretty interesting indeed, the rising dragon of the east.

    ni hao

  • lol relentless development. what a bull shit. u rather have these people lives in 3rd world status. i love to see US or EU keep their old ways and milk their own cow every morning

  • Interesting to see. i was always confused that kashgar is in afghanistan.lolz!

  • But isn't it actually just over the Chineese  border in Kazacstan.
