Misty-eyed westerners need a Tibetan history lesson : Comments

By Brian Hennessy, published 27/1/2009

Without understanding China's perspective, western criticism of its policy in Tibet is an exercise in self-righteousness.

A good article by one who knows the actual situation.

White Europeans from the West generally forget that they are responsible for the worst ethnic cleansing ever committed. What are white Europeans doing in Australia, New Zealand and North America? They went to these places not as migrants but almost completely annihilate the indigenous population.

One can watch the true situation in Tibet before the its liberation.

Whether it's the "worst" is open to question, but I concede it has been bad.
And it is true that *some* of us forget. Whether we "generally" do is also, however, open to question.

And now two wrongs make a right? I don't think so. The sins of my fathers do *not* excuse the sins of the Chinese government.

As to the video link you present - it's misrepresentations are almost beneath contempt.

This scribe has learnt his lesson very well indeed, just shows what environment can do to susceptible minds.

Now, the Han run and controlled CCP has a history, and policy of systematic denigration of other minorities, and particularly the Tibetans; makes themselves look better, disparages the Tibetans and creates a common enemy to deflect anger over all the failings and shortcomings of the CCP towards this hapless scapegoat – the oldest trick in the book. Hitler used it successfully in the 30s, with the Jews the hapless victims in this abominable scheme.

Just pick a few obscure and vague “facts”, embellish them, distort them some more, report them out of context, make some untenable connections and then repeat them ad nauseam - and hey presto, you’ve got something to besmirch and slander your conquered, subjugated and oppressed races with.
And presumably justifies your own aggression against this heathen, subhuman lot - can’t think of a more cogent or lucid admission of guilt than such deplorable tactics.

This scribe has trodden the path of other infamous ‘luminaries’ as Gelder, Epstein, and more recently Parenti, Nebe, Milliband etc, in a mendacious quest to demean anyone ‘audacious’ enough to defy the hegemony of global Chinese mind control and speak for the truth.
This ccp cabal is so impervious and completely void of any embarrassment, but to charge the Dalai Lama with slavery must be the epitome of mendacity – it is the Han Chinese CCP who has enslaved the whole of Tibetan nation in an orgy of repression, denigration and exploitation:

Appropriation of the entire Tibetan lands to hand over to Han settlers.
Systematic intimidation, harassment, wanton arrest, torture, beatings till there is enough internal injury for certain death to ensue, secret executions, secret trials, wanton sentences for framed ‘crimes’, owning and disseminating the Universal declaration of Human Rights, enunciating crimes by the Han Chinese oppressors………
Discrimination on every level, but then having the temerity to send out Propagandists with a concocted story of “privileges” for the Tibetan people – problem is that if you try and verify all these feel good propaganda lies on the spot in Tibet you’re met with menacing intimidation, instant expulsion, or jail, being charged with spying and infringements of state secrets!
State secrets indeed; for the official line bears no semblance to the reality the Tibetan people face every day at all.

But one of the worst crimes surly must also rate the fact that 1.3 billion Han Chinese’s hearts and minds have been destroyed, and reduced to regurgitate such libellous slander and untruths, plus a whole bevy of western sycophants, who, in order to protect their jobs and access to China and the worlds biggest ‘market’ have been cowered into selling academic rigor and honesty for expediency and instead toe the ccp line for fear of offending this cabal and jeopardising their chummy ties with this regime.
