Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang yesterday again urged the international community to see the Dalai Lama's "true face" and offer no support for his secessionist activities.
Qin made the remarks in response to US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's recent call for China to consider a new policy to address the Tibet issue and to start talks with the Dalai Lama.
US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi also visited the Dalai Lama last week.

Sorry, it doesn’t work that way here. There is a long tradition on FR that it is incumbent upon the one who makes the claim to produce a site. Don’t ask me to do your homework like some Dr. Marten phony.
No, you didn’t go into detail because there is nowhere you can find anything to back up what you’re claiming.
This coming from someone who couldn’t even produce an unbiased site outside of Students for a Free Tibet. Someone who’s only so called expertise allegedly comes from talking to a few Tibetan Lamas and a little book reading. No experience the country of discussion, no ability to to communicate with them in their native language or read their native texts. It’s doubtful you’ve even ever left the country. Grow up.
You still haven't addressed the sound beating you took over your first contention on this thread. So far all you have responded with is empty chest beating as if that proves anything other than how big your narcissistic ego is. : )
He has been exposed as a hater and a Bin Laden lover by his own posts. Is there a greater insult to oneself?
None that I could think of. It was nice of him to lay it all out so well. He seems to have a peculiar talent for shooting himself in the foot.
