    Thank you, at the time of writing not much details were available in the western press. Currently we are flooded with it.

    If you have anything useful to add to this, please be my guest,

    You have no proof of those, China did not invade Tibet, Tibet has been part of China and forever will be.

    @The Doctor: If you believe history started after it was rewritten by Mao in the 1950ies, then indeed forever started only 50 years ago and I need to agree. Otherwise: you have been fooled.

    Don’t be bothered, in the West people are fooled by history as well and they don’t know either.
