Cultural Genocide
Posted by hardyberlin on 19th March 2008
There is a genocide that has literally been going on for decades. The fact that genocide is being committed in Tibet every day by the Chinese Communist government is indisputable. China has for 44 years been engaged in a relentless program to destroy the Tibetan people, their culture and religion. Little or nothing has been done about it by UN.
But what is the Pope doing? Well, commentators in Italy have criticized the failure of Pope Benedict XVI to express his concern for the violence in Tibet. At (Sunday’s) Angelus Benedict opted to speak about Iraq but remain silent on Tibet.
Even the Vietnam Committee on Human Rights strongly condemns the Chinese government’s recent brutal crackdown on peaceful demonstrations of Buddhist monks, nuns and lay-followers in Tibet, and calls for an urgent UN inquiry into the violence. But nothing happens.
Yet again the Chinese government is trampling on the promises it made linked to the Olympics and has preparing the ground to crackdown on the Tibetan revolt in the absence of witnesses. Thats the reason why foreign journalists, members of NGO’s and tourists were ordered to leave Tibet, and Internet communication was cut down. So no one can tell the truth to the world
As long as the world is content to make money in China and ignore its human rights violations and the commission of genocide, China will thumb its nose at the UN. But appeasement can be dangerous.
