Not strictly related to this post, but strongly related to China. Most of the bad things we hear about China are true, however we shouldn’t lose a proper global point of view and I try to show the other part:

Re: John Smith

Chinese citizens may be a bit too overconfident in the idea that the CCP has “liberated” the Tibetans, but the Tibetan GIE in Dharamsala is no stranger to overstretching the facts either. Grab any Free Tibet literature and invariably one of the 10 or so bullet points that are featured prominently will be “Tibet was an independent nation prior to Chinese takeover in 1951″. The exact truth of that statement is a very complicated web of politics that involves not only China and the former govt of Tibet, but also Britain, India, Russia, etc. In essence, the Chinese aren’t the only ones who know about propaganda.

It reminds me of American pollsters finding over 80% of Americans actually believe they are helping save the world in Iraq.
