Why Do Tibetans Self-immolate?

Sir, sometimes you are even too sophisticatedly subtle for your self.

You can cry a Hwango Ho if you wish, but you cannot explain why Tibetans do what they do - burn themselves.

Indians don't!

 

[W.G.Ewald]

Why dont you take your own advice?:cool2:

Because the only Chinese I have access to is the lady who cuts my hair.

A new paradigm is needed.

Tibet person douses himself with gasoline.

Grabs first Chinese passer-by.

Lights them both up.

Great, a loser give an advice to another loser.

You should strive to do better, even for 50 cents.

India could have done so much to increase its influence all across South Asia and beyond. Conquering China and other nations by religion should have been complemented with military expedition simultaneously which was a big no no in Buddhism.

Our reality check which was very late, was 1962, which weaned of remaining Buddhist influence of 'Ahimsa' non violence much of our Population was having including Nehru.

hadnt you people done that military invasion in the period of kushan to attack han china which more or less led to chinese knowing something about Buddhist from some of those indians han soldiers can capture?? said that 1962 was the 2nd time......

They burn themselves because, from the age of five onwards, they go to school in monasteries. In them, these children are trained to be ascetic monks in the middle of the most materialistic society on Earth. When they graduate, they can't find gainful employment because they haven't learned anything except how to chant prayers and shout slogans and worship, in secret, a very human and very fallible exile. Then they go back to the monastery and spend all day being useless, and one day they grow frustrated (in more ways than one) and go find some kerosene and a match.

The solution? Sinify and secularize the children. All of them.

Bar Tibetan parents from enrolling any children in these monasteries, enforce compulsory public education in secular schools, and bar religiously-oriented individuals from teaching in or even working as janitors or staff in the schools--basically, a zealous interpretation of the American First Amendment. Test the kids yearly; at age ten, put the smartest 1% in strictly secular boarding schools to get these kids away from any and all religious influences. For the rest of the children, encourage them to attend vocational schools post-graduation that let them become the builders of a better tomorrow for China and Tibet.

Give the 1% scholarships to attend colleges on the wealthy east coast of China, pick up useful skills like engineering, medicine, and law, and work on the wealthy East Coast of China, far away from Tibet. Keep soft tabs on them and encourage them to marry into Chinese society. Isolated from the family unit, these kids will search for a sense of belonging--so offer membership into the Communist Youth League, but make it selective and exclusive to the best of the best, so that all the brightest ethnic Tibetans compete against each other for acceptance into the Chinese party-state.

There are only ten million ethnic Tibetans, so every year this program would have to encompass about 100,000 to 200,000 children--a 1% cutoff is 1,000-2,000 kids, which means the program is doable with the right amount of funding. Indeed, this could be dressed up as a charity--set up a foundation to promote education in Tibet, base it out of Hong Kong, make its finances (but not its operations) transparent to the Western media, and hell, you could even tap into the very same Western foundations that salivate at the thought of splitting apart China into helping you completely Sinify the best and brightest Tibetan youth, year after year, decade after decade, until these Tibetans identify more with Beijing than Dharamsala, and can be reliably counted upon to govern out of Lhasa.

Eventually, the problem will go away. And heck--every time Tibetans attack one of these schools, incite the Tibetans to violence and try to get them to shoot at the schools. Then you can put egg on the face of the Tibetan movement in the West, by making them look like the same Taliban religious zealots shooting up schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Indians don't!

That is because you are asking the question to the wrong people. Go ask the tibetans who burned themselves. One should think it is self-evident that you ask them instead of a third part. ROFL.

says a chini who is perhaps the ambassador of the largest race of loosers(you know what i meant)!

 

[t_co]

Then, after twenty or thirty years of this program being active, you take those Tibetan 'best of the best', find the ones who are reliable (preferably ones with Chinese spouses and children), and install them back into Lhasa. A Tibetan face on a competitive, professional, materialistic Chinese heart--that is what you will have, and that is the best way to keep the peace in the region. They will have a direct incentive to keep the peace in the region, as the first people the Tibetans kill if unrest boils over will be them and their families, and because they are Tibetan (and smart), they will keep the peace using subtle, nuanced, and utterly effective methods.

WHat does that say about your country that are doing even worse than those losers?

you are really a bunch of shameless guys,aren't you!you invaded our country out of the blue in '62 and when we got ready to give your soldiers a befitting reply your PLA ran away with their tails between their legs but wait your soldiers are world famous in this matter(sino-vietnam war)!

This is what is the way to to Sinicise the people who are not Han.

Soon, the offsprings of such mixed parentage will forget their roots/

By placing such mixed parentage people in high positions, it will encourage others and they will be encouraged into mixed marriages.

The people will be converted totally!

Really?

That is news!

Afterwards the chinese will do the same thing indians did after the mumbai attack, hunt down those murderers. ohh wait..

Better get the Islamic terrorists killing Han Chinese in Western China who are hiding in Pak with full protection of Pak Army and after this also provide food to your second illegal child aka North Korea or else they would start eating Han Chinese people after they are done with their own kids.

Come to the point instead of diverting topic or else it would be diverted to Nanjing at the end.

And when the Dalai Lama protests, simply say "we are offering the children of the Tibetan Autonomous Region a way out of poverty and opportunities they otherwise would not have". Paint the Dalai Lama into a corner, and force him to choose between acceding to the program or looking like Anwar al-Awlaki, that notorious American who encouraged all Muslim parents to send their children to madrassas (and who was killed by an American predator drone in Yemen--maybe China should do the same thing to the Dalai Lama if he deviates one centimeter from his rejection of violence, or if there was some sort of regrettable terrorist incident in Tibet, say a bombing or a shooting.)

Of course. And we are the best at it--we've been doing this since the Han dynasty, two thousand years ago. Such an approach is unstoppable if correctly executed. All it takes, really, is money, subtlety, and sustained political will, and China has plenty of all three.
