Chinese may have killed 140 Tibetans this week: Dalai Lama
2 hours, 14 minutes ago
Chinese security forces opened fire on a crowd this week in eastern Tibet and may have killed 140 people, the Dalai Lama told a French daily on Thursday.
"The Chinese army again fired on a crowd on Monday August 18, in the Kham region in eastern Tibet," he told Le Monde. "One hundred and forty Tibetans are reported to have been killed, but the figure needs to be confirmed."

Keep on killing during the Olympics. Yes, communist regime gets a gold medal on Olympic massacre.
Thanks for reminding the world of what the regime is all about. This will snuff out whatever warm-and-fuzzy feeling some naive and gullible people may have had about Chinese regime after watching Olympic propaganda show.

So then, did they win the Gold Medal for “Human Rights Abuses”?

You’re talking about Democrats and neocons, right?

Sends a heck of a message to those who may oppose chinese oppression. The world isn’t going to say a word if the Chinese kill you.

They got gold in Human Rights Protection just after Edwards got his Father of the Year award.

Photos are not available yet. Don't worry.
If they ever get posted, it will be on the separate thread and I will put warning phrase on the header.

It is just beyond belief that the world allows the Chinese government to get away with things like this. What they have done/are doing in Tibet is beyond a human rights violation; it’s genocide!
To: TigerLikesRooster
That’s O.K.
The Olympics were great and everybody did well and had a good time (sarcasm).

Good verse. Sums the issue up. The absolute hypocrisy of tyranny.

This doesn’t even make the news with thousands of so-called reporters over there!
Disgusting.

Interesting headline. Now......here is the dilemma. The news reports that the Dalai Lama claims that 140 were killed. Now, there are reports he didn't make such a claim. If the later proves to be true, would you be willing to retract such a posting?
