I used your facts and asked for your opinions in the last reply, but it would be interesting to see which facts we disagree on. I think it is a fact that China invaded, crushed and now brutally rules Tibet - cruelly, illegally and unjustly.
If you disagree with this fact then we will certainly disagree on them all.
And, if you can serve in good conscience as an apologist for China on this recent history, then I believe your credibility on China today is doubtful.
thanks for your reply.
I have two points. First, I judge China based on what I consider to be amazing changes that have occured in its society, economy, and politics over the past couple of decades. Second, I judge the situation in Tibet based on information I’ve gathered from sources I trust. I’ll grant you that they may not have the entire picture and that more reliable evidence might give me a different view.
But I don’t believe every source that claims some attrocity occured, whether it’s said to have occured in Tibet, Israel, or Gitmo.
