    Tibet was invaded in 1949-50 and Tibetans have been BADLY oppressed by the communist party since then. Please watch

    .

    "Dispatches Undercover in Tibet"

    .

    which is currently on youtube in 5 parts as "Undercover in Tibet 2008". It seems to be by far the best documentary about Tibet. No chinese was murdered by Tibetans.

  • Right, so China liberates Tibet from serfdom, gives it food and gas. In return, Chinese businessmen are murdered on the streets and the Tibetans start protests. Then China sends in the police and the Tibetans say China started beating up a monk first? Say WHAT???????? Forget it, dont forget, the Dalai Lama was a dictator as well!

  • To see some countries who recognised Tibet as a country go to tibetjustice. org/materials/treaties/index.h­tml (remove spaces) China - Sino-Tibetan Treaty 821/823 A.D.
