Behind The Tibetan Curtain

Behind The Tibetan Curtain

“Man of Peace” the United States calls the Tibetan Spiritual Leader, the Dalai Lama. “There is absolutely nothing that indicates that he wanted anything other than to engage in dialogue with China to try to resolve some of the important points in Tibet”, added the spokesperson of the State Department, Tom Casey.

Thus, the North simply described the riots of this past March 14, when in Lhasa, the regional capital of Tibet, violent organized disturbances by the Dalai group continued as part of the separatists plans from the gigantic Asian region.

As much as it is insisted on separating such events from the upcoming Olympic Games in Beijing, it is impossible not to interpret the act as marked interest in creating a crisis in the moment that the Olympic flame began its journey around the world: 130-day tour of 137 thousand kilometers.

The pacifist intention of the pro-independence movement for Tibet fell into discredit when the Chinese police discovered and gutted out a cache of weapons, ammunition, explosives, and knives in the Buddhist monastery of Geerdeng in the autonomous district of Aba close to Tibet.

Telecommunications equipment, some thirty personal weapons, 498 bullets, four kilograms of explosives, arms, and white flags of the Tibetan government in exile were concretely part of the war findings.

The nature of these events, not incidental, are explained in one of the paragraphs of the second part of the Cuban Revolution’s Maximum Leaders’ reflections entitled, The Chinese Victory, “In the course of two centuries, not even one country has recognized Tibet as an independent nation. They consider it an integral part of China. In 1950 India conceived it as such after the triumph of the communist revolution. England adopted the same attitude. The United States until the Second World War considered it part of China and even pressured England in that sense. After the war, however, they saw it as a religious bastion against Communism”.

Behind the separatist movement organization is the Yankee secret service, and if the brotherhood with the Dalai-Lama was in doubt, the award from Congress of the United States’ with a gold medal dispells that. George W. Bush glorified him for his efforts in favor of liberty, democracy, and human rights.

As Fidel demonstrated, China is sensible to the questions of the integration of its territory, and in its legislation proclaimed and applied respect to the rights and the culture of 55 ethnic minorities.

Against this dirty campaign to boycott the games, Cuba demonstrates its support and also we again reiterate our confidence in its victory.
