One thought on “Tibetan Patriot Dies Following Self-Immolation Injuries”

  1. Tibet, an independent and sovereign state, with its own very distinct language and culture, was invaded by China in late 1950 and defeated by late 1951. The Chinese invasion of Tibet was as bloody and brutal as Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine today. The Tibetans resisted the invasion bravely, but were poorly equipped. The outside world was largely indifferent to the fate of the Tibetans, and there were no television cameras or reporters present. Chinese atrocities were covered up. The internet had not yet been invented. The outside world, even today, remains largely indifferent and ignorant about the terrible genocide carried out by the Chinese army against Tibetans and also against Uyghurs.
    Remember : TIBETANS ARE SUFFERING, EVEN NOW, UNDER CHINESE MILITARY OCCUPATION.
