Comments on: The Dalai Lama’s Wisdom and Ignorance of the Han http://chinadigitaltimes.net/2008/03/the-dalai-lamas-wisdom-and-ignorance-of-the-han/ Watching China Politics from Cyberspace Sat, 26 May 2012 16:47:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Tanghttp://chinadigitaltimes.net/2008/03/the-dalai-lamas-wisdom-and-ignorance-of-the-han/#comment-1203 Tang Wed, 02 Apr 2008 13:35:44 +0000 http://chinadigitaltimes.net/2008/03/the-dalai-lamas-wisdom-and-ignorance-of-the-han/#comment-1203 "The ignorance of many Han lies in the fact that devotion to power and interest has rendered them incapable of understanding this reasoning: that when the Han deprived Tibetans of their autonomy, they deprive themselves of their own rights to democratic self-government, and thereby to give up their dignity in the face of all humanity."First, Tibetans have autonomy; but those are not absolute autonomy; there are rules to abide by. Second, Dalai Lama's autonomy is his first step to Independence of region including Tibet, part of Sichuan, Qinhai. Han Chinese will not be fooled by Dalai Lama's wisdom. In this case, one person's wisdom is another person's poison. “The ignorance of many Han lies in the fact that devotion to power and interest has rendered them incapable of understanding this reasoning: that when the Han deprived Tibetans of their autonomy, they deprive themselves of their own rights to democratic self-government, and thereby to give up their dignity in the face of all humanity.”

Western politicians and hollywood celebrities are no moral standards and truth bearers. Appealing to them does not mean Dalai has wisdom. Those people are his only hope for his cause. The Han Chines are not ignorant not to please those people, arrogant may me. But we've earned that right not to be "taught a lesson". Terrible logic, Mr. political commentator.
