Do you think the exiled leader of Tibet should be told to go home because he is not a Christian?I don't care what his religion is.
But what I don't understand is why the liberal West is so easer to embrace a man who wishes to re-impose serfdom on the majority of "his" people. Between the current Chinese occupiers and the former monastic elites, the only people deserving support are the common Tibetan people.

There was never a system of serfdom in Tibet. They were an agrarian people in an extremely harsh climate and had little contact with the outside world by choice. Thusly they were poor by western standards. Standards based primarily on the acquisition of material wealth.

Your words in post #23 read as though they come from Engles or Marx. I have learned that I cannot and should not argue with commies so would you like to clarify that?
