..is at the center of the world's attention for past couple of weeks and is most likely to be there for some time now, at least till the end of Olympics !
So, why do you think, Tibet is suddenly "there". It is most certain that the Tibetans want to grab attention of the world on the eve of Olympics, which is the largest sporting event on this earth, apart from the football world cup (no, cricket has not reached there yet :D). What we all know, which can be sometimes limited, is that Tibetans are demanding independence from China, the super power. Why would one distance from a economic super-power ? Maybe , they are tired of being neglected, suppressed over the years by the Chinese governments. Will they be successful to gain even autonomy, is what remains to see.
What do you expect Chinese to do? Use force some might say to suppress the agitation and that would not be a wild guess. The extent of force, hopefully is lesser than what we can even imagine. With US of A, like its old habit, poking its now economically bleeding nose into this issue, it is potentially going to be a another great war of words between, the two giant (& arrogant) nations
What does India do in all this mess ? Nothing ! Like always India will not utter a word and will remain equidistant from all the parties involved. It is probably unfortunate for the Lamas and the Tibetans, Dharamsala happens in to be in our nation, which does not really believe in taking a stand in any issue. Can't really blame her, the governments are not able to take a firm stand on internal issues as well !!
I happened to go through the following blog, which gives more insight, of what Dharamsala is all about !! http://unseendharamsala.blogspot.com/ and what His Holiness Dalai Lama has been able to achieve over the years. Also, explains why he is revered across the globe.
Finally, lets hope and pray that this and all other conflicts come to an end with "peace" winning the battle yet again !!...Peace can still be given a chance !!
