AP: Violence spilled over from Tibet into neighbouring provinces on Sunday as Tibetans defied a Chinese government crackdown and the Dalai Lama warned that the area faced "cultural genocide" and appealed to the world for help.
Official Translation Of Response By Western Leaders Regarding Chinese Crackdown In Tibet.
Since the Chinese government controls an economy which, in addition to providing what is in essence a work force of slave laborers; men, women and children who produce essential items for Western consumption: Goods such as Happy Meal toys and really cheap electronic products, also controls a gigantic, barely-tapped, market of more than a billion people. These are but a few of the many considerations weighed by the leaders of Western nations before we determined the fairest, most honorable and diplomatic reaction to the current tensions between China and the people of Tibet was to do nothing, thus reserving the option to appear outraged at some future date should it become politically expedient to do so.
We must remember, China contains a vast market of consumers who have shown they possess a nearly unquestionable desire for McDonalds, Wal-Mart, bad television programs and virtually all manifestations of Western goods or services. This allows Western business and industry a virtually limitless opportunity for growth. For example, Western marketing forces can focus for a decade or more on ruining the Chinese diet by supplying them with an abundance of fast-food options as well as replacing their traditional staples with fatty, sugar-laden products completely devoid of any nutritional value, all while creating a Chinese demand and market for the latest in ever-changing Western fashion.
This will ensure that in the coming decades China will have an entirely new market ripe for the picking; a billion plus people who will crave a wide range of “diet†food, weight loss products, crappy exercise equipment and “relaxed fit” clothing.
Oh yeah, Tibet.
Sure Tibetans are a people whose culture is based on a religion that teaches peace, loving-kindness and moderation in all things. (not a very consumption oriented market base) And yes, it is true that the religion of their people – considered to be one of the world’s four major religions – really hasn’t been responsible for starting any wars or for the wholesale slaughter of people whose beliefs were different than theirs, and for the most part theirs is a religion whose practitioners live peaceful lives without exploiting the world’s resources.
As you can undoubtedly see; the “Tibet Model†is not a formula that offers any real benefit to West.
So really, who cares what China does to repress them. What has Tibet or a Tibetan ever done for you?
NOTE: All statements contained above are subject to radical transformation should an enormous reserve of oil or natural gas be discovered within the confines of Tibet.
