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?

But there was a trend to dialoque last years. And monks have chosen very good moment to ruin this in one hour.
Quote:
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?

No, I mean unprofessional state security agency work (sorry I don't know how it is called in China). They should have foreseen this and take measures. Very poor agenture work. Instead Government has acted just like monks (and who is behind them) wanted them to - the worst possible way to solve such things. If state security worked better there would have been no need to expell foreign press and there would have been no violence film material to smuggle.

In that case I meant that during their 5000 history "culture revolution" was not the only one period of massacre. There have been periods of dissolvation with massacre and periods of centralisation again with massacre.
I am afraid that if now separatism in China would be supported (and Tibet is not only one problem province - there are Sintzan-Uygur Authonomy and other provinces) - it may brake out into civil war with predictable millions of dead and unpredictable consequences of civil war in a country which has nukes. And this country is a neighbour of mine
