I think I cannot be silence anymore!! I have no opinion on how China is treating Tibet because I am always confused on why the police cannot do the same thing as the riots do.  I have always been thinking that it could be much worse than this if it is not the Olympic year - I have always been imagining what happened in Tiananmen Square in 1989 would happen again.

Okay, back on what happened in London yesterday.. I mean their action yesterday is ridiculous and stupid. The protesters has been wanting freedom and "violence-free" in Tibet but ironically, they use violence against the Olympic torch, so what the point of that??

In my Chinese History lesson, I have been told that Tibet is part of China for a long time and this makes it silly for them to want independence because Chinese Government put so much money in Tibet for schools, hospitals,  transportation, etc.. If you think Chinese did invade Tibet, what is the difference between what China did and what the American and English did to Iraq?? Why don't they think about that?? There are often news about how bad the soldiers are treating the prisoners.

I still think that Olympic games is a purely SPORTS event and nothing politically should affect it. However, at the end of the day, it is still a government decision on whether boycotting the games or not. However, as a Chinese, I am proud of my own country and support Olympic games.

Just as I was watching BBC news on Youtube, I found this "related video" which I got really angry and confused at the same time and here is the video - hope you will take time to watch the whole video:

Why do the Western media do that?? Can anyone explain??
