The Tibetans who self immolate themselves are wasting an opportunity. If Tibetans must die, they should become suicide bombers and just walk into the Cental Chinese Government Offices in Lhasa and touch themselves off.

Self immolation simply makes the Chinese applaud the fact that there is one less Tibetan radical alive.

The fact is that the Chinese should leave Tibet forever.Only force will make them leave, nothing else.

I understand what you are thinking and feeling about that. Taking some enemy with you has a satisfying ring to it. But taking ten Chinese isn't ten less anything to the Chinese except ten less mouths to feed and ten less males competing for scarce females.

But, as a post earlier on alluded to, there is a psychological hit to the enemy from immolation and by killing some Chinese and introducing the aspect of revenge into the equation that negates the psychological impact. The act of immolation doesn't provoke anger which can be used to motivate counter-revenge. It deprives the Chinese of playing the Victim Card which is a major propaganda tool of socialists, communists and tyrants in general.
