Perhaps, the Chinese Government should in a volte-face move give more leeway for the Catholic Church in China while giving the Tibetans more room. I know the government is scared of that in a way. The Dalai Lama is not seeking to confront China, and he isn't against the Chinese people at all or the government. |

| I know that after the last week, with Chinese nationalists doing such a good job of showing their true colours, I sure have less trust in China to handle the issue of minority concerns rationally. |

Frankly, I do think that China has little concern when it comes to dealing with issues like the environment and human rights. They simply want to force nature to do what they think is best for China and to force minorities to be absorbed by the Han Chinese. |

Yeah. Some people think this whole protest is a fiasco.
I'd like to hear from them about the morality of it all. |
