Indeed, this forum requires thousand flowers to bloom!
But they must be logical and supported. You can't expect a daisy to bloom in the North Ole can you?

If we are wrong we are wrong. You have to prove that we are wrong with logic and not with homilies of the CCP. Please understand, our minds have been allowed to grow without the ''guidance'' of our govts. Hence, we can think. Our logic and analysis remains beyond dictation. If indeed you can prove we are wrong, I shall be the first one to admit it so!! However, homilies and pious platitudes do not impress me! |

You have some parts of it right. The Tibetans are living better lives than ever. It was the CCP who brought in the prosperity. Doesn't mean that no one else could not have done it but the CCP was the one who done and should deserve credit for that.
HOWEVER, the very fact that you've got such a lethal riot indicates that not all is good. There are some very serious problems and thus far, not one of you new posters have addressed any of those issues. Why did the Tibetans rioted? It's very easy to blame the Dali Lama but why would they support the DL? Have you asked those questions yet? |

Let me know if you'll find it easier to be a PRC apologist(if not a CCP apologist) if Han chinese were to be ruled by someone else...especially if they force on the hans, free japanese education. Blatant race favoritism is difficult to hide. The Yellow mans burden is true after all.

Colonel,
Don't get angry. I too love India and I too display the same beyond rationale!! To a disinterested observer, it shows! When the logic appear weak in their eyes and they may be totally wrong!! You all laugh at me when I say Perceptions! Indeed, it is Perceptions at play and not the intent!! Last edited by Ray : 05-03-2008 at 04:25 AM. |

As for supporting DL, if a Tibetan isn't happy with the current gov't, then he doesn't have a lot of choices. I personally find the DL fairly ineffective, he's spent half a century campaigning for Tibetan Independence, then autonomy, and I seriously don't see any significant progress that can be attributed to his actions. |
