And Wikipedia (lol) and several books written by Tibetans (not westerners who never set foot in Asia) and from several Tibetan lamas born in Tibet that I know personally and whose personal testimonies I have read.
 
Using your misplaced logic, I suppose I can now claim supreme knowledge on this subject. While serving as the President of the Chinese Language Club at my university a few years ago, I had the privildge of sitting down for a luncheon with the Dalai Lama's brother and several other Tibetan Monks from the Tibetan Cultural Center in Bloomington.  It was quite a treat and a very enlightening experience. And while I have never had the honor of meeting his holiness, the Dalai Lama, I have been fortunate enough to hear him speak during one of his many trips to Bloomington, IN.
 
See how fun these childish pissing contests are?

You're knowledge of Chinese - Tibetan history remindes me of  Hillary Clinton's experience in Foreign Relations

Post #66 "Well aren't you the pot calling the kettle black. The irony here is that you don't see it. I'm still waiting for those unbiased / academic links."

Interesting challenge since you haven't provided one.

Post #91 "I’ve actually lived in China and know quite a few Tibetans from the Sichuan province."

Post #92"Oh, by all means, do tell what makes you such an authority on Chinese history?"

Post #93"1. The lamest thing I've seen yet on this thread is you trying to pass, "Students for a free Tibet", off as an unbiased source of authority. Obviously you can't find any academic sources to back up your quacky assertions."

Again, you have yet to provide one.

Post #94"...I think everybody with access to the internet knows about Wikipedia. It's not exactly a secret. As for our arguement the other day, I noticed that you ran out of wind."

Apparently the "pissing contest" method of debate is something you are very familiar with. In fact rely solely on.
