Yes. How can one dare after decades of supression, genocide, 1- 1.2 million people killed, torture, to start tryiong to use an opportunity to win western medias attention to raise awareness what crime china has commited in Tibet, and still does?

and Government for not being able to deal with this problem without provocating foreign press to start all this fever.

You mean the foreign press that has been completely expelled from Tibet so that only the chinese police'S cameras shall see what is happening, or do you mean that foreign press that shows film material that gets secretely smuggled out of china and was filmed often at maximum danger for the person holding the camera?

What Chinese Government have done and still are doing is like shaking red cloth in front of an angry bull. But Chinese civilisation is more than 5000 years old - they know their ways better... :hmm:

relativistic nonsens, it sounds to me. I am quite aware of how old chinese culture is. I have been educated by principles and ideas some of which have their origin in Chinese culture. the highest most essential form of Buddhism - as I perceive it - has it'S roots in China. I am also aware of this thing that is called culture revolution, where Chinese killed at least 7 million other chinese, and millions were sent into reeducation camps, and the old ways of Chinese culture were tried to be rewritten or deleted. The china of Mao is by far not the logical consequence of 5000 years old traditions, but a violant warping caused by a communist ideologist and brutal tyrant: it was a rape of Chinese cultural history. when you kill every sixth person in a to-be-subjugated region and commit genocide and massmurder and torture monks for carrying a picture of the Dalai Lama with them under their robes by putting wires through their teeths and genitals and then send electricity through them until they have almost lost their brain and their flesh is smoking, or burn women's breasts until a black stump is all that is left becasue they violated the state discipline when demanding freedom, then you can hardly link this up to cultural heights of china like the philosophy o Kung Tse, or Mong Tse, Chuang Tse or Lao Tse. It also gets not compensated by the excellent chinese cuisine. It is and remains to be barbarism - cold, brutal, inhumane.
