In the morning TIMES, a journalist noted that in response to the Tibetan crisis, one Chinese blogger lamented that the very idea of freeing Tibet - giving them their independence back - would be like letting California or Vermont secede.
Baloney!
Unlike California and Vermont, Tibet was once a proud Nation.
In addition - the odd-ball observer, clearly out of his element here - made the self-serving remark that because Tibet represents fourteen percent of the "Chinese Territory", a return of Tibet to its people, would represent a great loss to China.
Tough ti**y!*
China never owned the territory in the first place.
In unison all,
"Free Tibet, now!"
*A novel American expression - the meaning of which - I trust is not lost in the translation.
