		<description>US is trying to split Tibet from China, to steal their resources.  The Tibetans including the Dalai Lama are just puppets, and everybody is BRAINWASHED…again.  Dalai Lama and Tibetan monks had slaves, serfs, feudalism and theocracy.  Britain invaded and stole Tibet in 1904.  CIA initiated the monks to revolt in 1959, and has been funding the Free Tibet movement around the world since.  US has military bases surrounding China.  BEST EXPLANATION of what’s really happening:

		<description>The Dalai Lama was recently in Seattle and I heard him speak.  He spoke on several issues and I began to educate myself on Tibet, the monastaries, the invasion by the military, the destruction of a people that didn't fit into the desired 'way-of-life' of the ruling party in China.  I have read information from several areas, not from one country but several.  The human right's violations always come when one 'class' of people decide they are more important than another.  Several of the chinese comments say that things are better in China now.  I don't understand these comments unless they are coming from the ruling class, the mandarin chinese, the govt., and the military.  The chinese people in this blog say that they stopped slavery, why then did so many people flee to India?  Are you saying that the destruction of a people's way of life and the imprisonment and torture of so many is okay?  Not only Tibetans but other political prisoners.  Tibetans are unable to practice their religious beliefs without threat of reprisals.  Tibetans admit that there were people who worked the fields, there was conflict with power seeking religious people, etc.  Many countries have been violating human rights and it breaks my heart that there has been so much suffering.  If my culture was being systematically destroyed, I don't know how easy it would be to sit idly by... when religion is part of any conflict though, there are no winners or losers, we all end up losing.  We all need to question ourselves and determine what is right and wrong.  Do we want to continue the violence, the wars, the killings, the greed?  This world will suffer unless 'people' decide that we have suffered enough.</description>

		<description>What I want to explain is that what the effective independence was and how the substantial unification was realized. And the innocent people should be aware and cautious of what will happen in the future.</description>

		<description>Tibet is of China's sovereignty in history. And Dalai Lama system was constituted by Mongolian military group and Mandarian(Qing) monarchy. At the start of this century Tibet was almostly colonized by British. But the central government at that time never signed an official treaty to quit the sovereignty. When the Chinese Communists unified the country, they viewed the local Tibetan government as a kind of Guomingdang's (Chinese Nationalist Party) regime and forced them to sign a peaceful liberation treaty. But they kept Dalai Lama's ruling as a kind of minority nation policy. It was the peasantry slaves who saw that labouring people outside Tibetan area had had overthrown their exploiters' ruling and demanded land and more equal political status with the feudal and religious ruling class in Tibet. This annoyed the ruling monks and official class greatly. They decided to organized a rebellious army and was exiled in 1959. So how comes the exiled Tibetan government. In this point of view it was the Communist Party who unified the country. Now once 90% population of Tibetan peasantry slaves become Chinese citizen and never want to go back to feudal monarchy's ruling again. But the western propaganda still can influence some people, especially the monks because they need not to labour in the old system.</description>

		<description>I am near to Hong Kong. So I could read messages from both western and Chinese media. I realize this is a kind of Cold War propaganda. I was bred in a most populous Tibetan province. And I studied the history of Tibetan area. The Chinese Communist government blocks the news and reports because western sociaty is a kind of superior sociaty than that in developing countries and easily overthrows their regimes.</description>

		<description>I wanna know how many of you  who critic Chinese human right as if they knew the truth,have ever been to China?Do you know the truth of the riot happened in Tibet? Or you just accept the news from BBS or other media without any thinking even it's A BIAS?

    In the past years,what i hear about you western people is that you have ideas of your own,you can tell right from wrong.but now i doubt this very much because you trust whatever the media say ,both right and WRONG.


    Here,I am proud to tell you that I AM CHINESE! I've been living in China for 21 years and i think i have a louder voice on the fact of human rights in china than you guys who critc it but lived hundreds of thousand miles away.I dare say that the human rights in China is no worse than any western countries.The U.S always critics the human rights in China,but what about the fact of his domestic human rights?---wars in Iraq,maltreating the captures,high crime rate etc. Why there is a double-criteria in human rights? why  the human rights in the western country is always  GOOD ?


 sometimes when i read  news about tibet riot from the west media i felt that the west media are so "considerate".they are so" pitiful" to us Chinese .it seems that  they know us chinese more clearly than ourselves.The fact that we are living a happy life turns into a deep distress in their descriptions.
Obviously ,there is a cabal,a cold war against China.

    The reports from the main west media all with distorted voice astonished us.Look at the media's great creation!Even vilify the riot happened in Nepal and Indian  to tibet . who attacts whom on earth? why lots of the west media have selective BIAS,neglecting truth? Thanks to CNN ,BBS,Spiegel,all the liar western Media .Their behavior have educated a whole generation of young Chinese what the western Media really is. There are always various obstructions on the process of Torch Relay,but We all chinese people will spare no effor to guard the Olypic torch ,to guard our GREAT MOTHERLAND -China!


what the human righs really is in China and what the truth of tibet riot is  on earth,TIME WILL TELL!</description>

		<description>Boycotting the Olympics tries to nullify a very spirit of the Games, which is a consensual unity of folks round a globe for peace and a better life for all.

Perhaps, this ancient notion is among a few traditions should really be kept through epochs.</description>

		<description>What is human right? Is to allow and even instigate some Dalai mob to kill innocent civilian,to burn stores,to rob of bank? I think any government never permit any mob to ruin country's public security.Before post your comment on Tibet,you'b better read its history carefully first,even go there and realize Tibetan's normal life,not only trust on some media and newspaper like CNN,BBC etc.</description>
