Exiled Tibetans March on Anniversary of Crushed Uprising
MSN ^ | 3/11

Posted on 03/14/2024 8:43:25 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Tibetans in India on Sunday waved the flag of their homeland in protests marking 65 years since a failed uprising was crushed by China, driving the Dalai Lama and thousands of compatriots to flee.

Leaders warned of an "existential threat" to the decades-long struggle by Tibetans in exile to win greater autonomy for a homeland many have never seen.

On Sunday, hundreds of Tibetans gathered in the northern Indian hill-town of Dharamsala, the adopted home of the Dalai Lama since he fled Tibet days after the March 10, 1959 uprising.

Even Joseph Campbell used the Chinese massacre of Tibetans on one of his shows and had film clips of the terrified women and others trying to outrun the brutal soldiers. Tibetan Buddhists were nonviolent so Chinese took pleasure in making men watch their wives and daughters get gang raped in public.
Later many women were forced to be impregnated by Chinese in order to destroy the individuality of the families due to biracial children growing up.

One summary:
Some 87,000 Tibetans and 2,000 Chinese government troops were killed, and some 100,000 Tibetans fled as refugees to India, Nepal, and Bhutan during the conflict. Post-Conflict Phase (April 1, 1959-present): The PRC government closed the monasteries in Tibet, and imposed Chinese law and custom in the region.

College students will tell you how the Chinese have long spiritual and mystical traditions are superior to the crass American ones.

Tibet's Armed Resistance to Chinese Invasion David Kopel | 3.12.2022

During the 1950s, the greatest armed resistance to Mao's rule was in Tibet. "The Tibetan Revolt was a major international embarrassment for the Chinese and for Mao; it must be considered one of the factors in Mao's eclipse and in the retrenchment polices of the early 1960s." Warren W. Smith, "The Nationalities Policy of the Chinese Communist Party and the Socialist Transformation of Tibet," in Resistance and Reform in Tibet 53, 67-68 (Robert Barnett & Shirin Akiner eds. 1994).

CIA’s Secret War in Tibet

But contrary to the pop history version, the Tibetans did not simply let the Chinese roll over their country in 1951. For almost 20 years afterward they fought a long, bloody war of resistance that struck serious blows to Chairman Mao Tse-tung’s expansionist plans. Invisible to outsiders as it raged, this largely unknown struggle that no novelist could have dreamed up got support from the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, which sponsored secret training camps and made arms and equipment drops to aid horse-mounted herdsmen against the bombers and artillery of the largest standing army on the planet.

Chicoms killed more than even Russians, mainly other Chinese.

Kissinger is rotting in Hell I figure.

Picture an AI Hologram Kissinger on a mobile platform, following Blinken around, whispering in monotone, “You left the doors unlocked.”

Thanks for the links. People need to remember this. It portends how Chinese treat the rest of the world and races they are certain are totally inferior to the Chinese.

True. The ChiComs are not nice. Not then and not now although they may try to hide it better now. Power and control seem to be all they care about even when it comes to their own people and “others” are much less to them than their own.
