Before I answer your two questions,please reply to my questions seriously.
1,what is a nation?
2.what is the symbol of a nation?
3.what represent the national sovereignty?
4.why many Indian friends here clamored to recapture Tibet,and claimed Tibet is a part of India?
5.why the leaders in Tibet for almost 7 hundred years have to be conferred titles by Chinese emperor?(like “Japan” (today’s name of Japan(日本) ,its former name is Woguo(倭国)) is given by Wu Zhetian---- the only female emperor in Chinese history , the Japanese have to admit it for the gold medal which shows the history was found in Japan. You can also find many cultural relics in Tibet show its history. )
6.why you think China is very mean and it is China betrayed China-India friendship, if you open the history book, you will find the chronicle,which shows that India try to divide Tibet from China after we two countries build relationship, before 1962 war, China’s then premier even flied to India to have a talk with Indian leader.You all believe the westerner’s lie that China invaded India, Vietnam, but why when we reach our purpose (deterrence), we would retreat to Chinese land.
7.you say Chinese medias were strictly regulated by the gov,and what we read are all what the gov want we know.but why I have a feeling that I can look the outer world more objectively through medias than you in democracy countries?
8. You think Dalai Lamma is a saint, but why he is so violent (in the eyes of more than 1.4 billion people), he tried to resist Beijing Olympic Games,and killed many innocent people ,why the kind hearted westerners say something for our Chinese?
9,Have you seen the post here” ‘We killed all Chinese soldiers along the route’”
http://www.defenceforum.in/forum/indian-sub-continent-china/964-we-killed-all-chinese-soldiers-along-route.html
How proud they are?
And you know why they can they can kill the well trained PLA so easily? Because our great Mr Mao, he set the order, no soldiers can shot to the Tibeten,even when they were killed rudely by Tibetans by knives, because of Mao’s good heart, we make a united China with 56 ethnic groups peacefully, but many soldiers lost their young lives(most of them are below 25).
Then who is the hero, who is the terrorists?
What is Nobel Peace prize? Tell you sincerely ,nobody here believe it here, including me .
regards
Tibet was not a part of India and therefore the issue of ‘recapture’ does not arise.
I have not understood what you are stating about Japan and China. Are you stating that Japan was a part of China? If so, will Tibet be repeated on Japan because Chinese artefacts have been found in Japan?
You can find many Indian artefacts in Tibet as also:
Tibet geographic location throughout history has made it essentially the crossroads of Asia. The Middle Eastern influence from the West, Mongolian influence from the northeast and of course influence from the two most populous civilization in history: the Indians to the south and Chinese to the East. However Tibet still created and maintained its own distinct culture and language and also influenced these nations themselves and other smaller surrounding nations in return(some more that others). So the question I ask is which people had the largest influence on Tibetans throughout history and why? What examples are there of these peoples influence?
Here are just a few foreign cultural influences in Tibetan culture, there are many others. Please list any other you can find.
Middle Easterners:
-Tibet has a small minority of Tibetan Muslims known as “Kyangsha or Gya Kachee“. “Tibetan Muslims…are largely of Kashmiri and Persian/Arab/Turkic descent through the patrilineal lineage and also often descendants of native Tibetans through the matrilineal lineage”.
Mongolians:
-Tibetan dress and clothes were adopted from the Mongolians.
-”The actual title [of Dalai Lama] was first bestowed by the Mongolian ruler Altan Khan upon Sonam Gyatso in 1578″. Reincarnations of the Dalai Lama were many times supported by Mongol rulers.
Indians:
-”The most important event in Tibetan Buddhist history…was the arrival of the great tantric mystic Padmasambhava in Tibet in 774 at the invitation of King Trisong Detsen. It was Padmasambhava (more commonly known in the region as Guru Rinpoche) who merged tantric Buddhism with the local Bön religion to form what we now recognize as Tibetan Buddhism. In addition to writing a number of important scriptures (some of which he hid for future tertons to find), Padmasambhava established the Nyingma school from which all schools of Tibetan Buddhism are derived”.
- Alot of Tibetan scholarly knowledge has been learned from Indians throughout Tibets Buddhist history, “In 1204 he Kashmiri master Shakyashribadhra arrived in Tibet accompanied by an entourage of Indian scholars…Tibetan scholars were inspired by this opportunity to learn directly from knowledgeable Indians”. From contacts like this Tibetans applied themselves to mastering Sanskrit grammar and other aspects of Indian linguistic and literary learning, whether Sanskrit was introduced by the Indians I am unsure of though but it seems most likely. Tibetans also learnt and developed much of what they know on Buddhism from the Indians, like most Buddhist states in Asia.
-”The Tibetan writing system was based upon sixth or seventh century North Indian or Central Asian scripts that were derived from the more ancient Brahmi script (which, in an early form, had been used to inscribe many of the edicts of the famous Indian monarch of the third century BCE, Ashoka)”.
Chinese:
-”The King of Nepal and the Emperor of China offered their daughters to the Tibetan Emperor in marriage. The wedding to the Nepalese and Chinese princesses were of particular importance, because they played important roles in the spread of Buddhism in Tibet”. There is controversy in regards to which princess played a major or predominant role in the spread of Buddhism in Tibet. Chinese sources claim that it was the Chinese princess Wen Cheng whereas Tibetans claim that it was the Nepalese princess and not the Chinese whose influence was greater.
- The Tibetans, like the Japanese, had loaned their pronunciation for numbers from the Middle Chinese pronunciation.
I am afraid your history book which indicates that India was trying to divide is another figment of imagination that has been indoctrinated by the CCP on the Chinese people. The propensity of the CCP to fudge facts is too well recorded to be enumerated here. Yet, one would be the huge hoax played on the Chinese people about the SARS and when it could not be hidden, it was admitted! Even then the Chinese Health Minister, Zhang Wenkang, said there were but only a handful in Beijing. It was only when Jiang Yanyong, a CCP member and a PLA veteran and a nationally renowned surgeon wrote a letter in the media things were exposed. He claimed that health workers in military hospitals had been ordered to keep the epidemic a secret. (see Susan Jakes, Beijing’s SARS Attack, Time magazine 8 April 2003 and People Who Mattered 2003, Time Magazine, Asia Edition 29 December 2003).
So, that much for what your government respect for facts!
If you were so free and capable of obtaining information and facts in China, how is it that there is always a gag on the Internet whenever something happens, like in Xinjiang now? Why are the gags on Google?
Dalai Lama never killed anyone. It was the repression by the Chinese that sparked the tensions as is happening in Xinjiang as we write.
So Mr Mao or is it the Great Helmsman who prevented the PLA from shooting Tibetans? Really? He only killed a whole lot of people in the Cultural Revolution, just because he wanted to have fun by seeing an orgy in bloodshed being enacted? So, the Tibetans ‘rudely’ killed with knives? What did you expected them to do? Kill with clubs? Are they allowed to have firearms?
Do you seriously mean to say you know not of the Nobel Prize? Again, it shows how your government keeps you all in the dark!
As far as the guerilla you quoted of killing Chinese soldiers, what do expect him to do? Surrender or roll over and play dead?
