“As for Tibet, it has belonged to China for several hundred years”

That’s a lie....pure and simple. Tibet was an independent country for most of its existence. It did not become a “part of China” till 1958 when Mao’s goons invaded and annexed the country forcibly.

No, that's a fact, Jack! Tibet has been a part of China since the Yuan Dyansty in 1246 and remained that way until the fall of the Qing empire in 1911. It was during that time and the Civil War that Tibet declared "Independence".

FYI, it was 1950 when the Chinese started reasserting control over Tibet. It was 1959 when the Dalai Lama fled Tibet.

I can’t believe how many FReepers are willing to believe ChiCom propaganda.

It's not Chinese propaganda, it's HISTORY. Learn it.
