High-profile Tibetan monk dies in China prison

... and the human rights violations of Tibetans at the hands of Chinese continues.

BEIJING: A Tibetan monk who was one of China's most prominent political prisoners has died in jail, 13 years into serving a sentence, a relative said on Monday. A rights group said security forces were deployed after protesters gathered near a government office in his home region.

The US, the EU and international rights groups had called for the release of Tenzin Delek Rinpoche, 65, who was given a 20-year term on charges of "crimes of terror and incitement of separatism". He died on Sunday in Chuandong prison in the city of Chengdu, his cousin, Geshe Nyima, said over telephone from India. The Tibetan government-in-exile, the Central Tibetan Administration, also confirmed his death.

"The fact that he was not even allowed medical parole and last wish of followers to see him reflects continuing hardline policies of the Chinese government," said Lobsang Sangay, who heads the India-based administration. "Such mistreatment will only generate more resentment among Tibetans." reuters

Disgraceful. What a dark stain on China's history. And sadly, the Chinese people will remain brainwashed over these crimes.

Taking comfort, liberals, that America is not alone in persecuting people for their religious beliefs?

The funny thing is that both the Uighurs and the Tibetans are suffering a similar fate. The difference between the two is that the Uighurs are more likely to fight back with violence.

Another thing is that Uighurs are Muslims. And as soon as someone says Muslims many people instantly don't care. They assume they had it coming, just because they're Muslims and all Muslims are evil terrorists. So, China has the right to suppress the Uighurs, but not the Tibetans.

More fallacy than fake cheese...

China has been stealing sensitive technologies from the U.S. since Nixon opened this flood gate because there is a very strong lobby effort in the U.S. which protects China.

Yes, it's complete fallacy. However there are plenty of people who actually believe it.

Comments on news pages show this to be true. At least half of these suggest these Uighurs deserve everything they get for being Muslims.

Interesting. It is the same lobby which protects both Israeli and Chinese transgressions.

There is a difference between sharing and stealing. Sharing usually happens at a mutually agreed upon terms. Stealing on the other hand is a one sided effort and is not welcomed by the party at the receiving end of it. To the best of my knowledge, neither UK nor US have engaged in espionage against each other since the special relationship began.

There is no formal alliance between Israel & US and China & US. In case of China, US benefits from cheap labor that China provides. So, some groups in the US who benefit from cheap Chinese labor have vested interest in protecting Chinese image in the US. But, why are certain groups in the US defending Israeli image at the cost of US interests? That is a million-dollar question.

….what resulted to ship almost all manufacturing to China resulting substantially less job opportunities in the US. Building China's economy on the expense of US workers.
