So, there has been some nasty thing happening in Tibet for a while with the protests and riots.
People seem quick to point the finger at China, saying they're an evil entity focused solely on evil. That's not really entirely true and I believe that both sides are at fault.
First of all, there is the misconception that the protests are peaceful. They are not. There have been civilian deaths (against Chinese storeowners?) and massive destruction of properties.
Secondly, China sending in the military is completely justified in this circumstance. The protesters lost all of their 'civil rights' the moment they stopped being 'civil' (which is when they began using force.)
I'm not saying that China doesn't have a history of bad human rights.They're absolutely horrible... but there really isn't any other option in this situation. China can't/will never let Tibet go. This is pretty much a fact (along with Taiwan). The sooner people realize this, the better.
Another rant...
I think the whole Dalai Lama reincarnation thing is retarded to begin with. Why would any civilized Westerners allow such a stupid concept to exist? Is there anyone out there who believes in this bullshit?
I mean, if I started a religion where I am the supreme owner and ruler, does it mean I have special rights in my house? No. Tibet lost their government and they should get over it.Using their religion to cover it up is just bullshit cheap sympathy gathering tactic.

No one seems to mind the pope either, and he has even more influence than Lama.
Also the dozens of buddist leaders who are are all oddly rich (limos galore).
Religions should be scythed off the planet altogether.
Also, China can totally let Tibet (and Taiwan) go, it's like saying the British shouldn't have let any of its colonies go way back then.
Especially with Taiwan, since there is nothing to let go of. Taiwan's been opertating independently for almost 100 years now. It's like saying why doesn't China go for the rest of Mongolia. It's just not a good idea.
