do i claim to have a solution? no.

Well that makes two of us because I don’t have one either.

do i know well enough that there is no solution, especially with naive audience chatting away on the sidelines without dealing with the facts

So you have all the facts?

and imagine a solution based on ill-conceived notions and faulty dreams?

Maybe someone should ask the Tibetans about their notions and dreams.

the solution is rarely outside intervention in just about all cases, because then push gets back shove.

Agreed. Outside intervention is rarely a solution. There can be some short term positives (Bosnia, Darfur) but long term they never seem to work very well.

now, let us hear you on the Message 24555174 , do tell ... just so that we can move on to the crux of the matter in tibet that is actually china region

Never claimed that it was or wasn’t part of China. I haven’t delved deeply enough into the murky history of that subject to speak on it with any sense of certainty. As I said in a previous post - “No, not trying to make a country out of Tibet”.

which was once ruled by dalai lamas borne of political machination in beijing which had gone wrong by serfdom, then gone wrong by cia, then fixed

Then fixed? By the “great helmsman’s army? By the red guards? By the public security bureau? Fixed?

From your previous post:

my point made, and so then why do you think you know what you are talking about in regard to tibet? do tell again.

With all due respect, no your point has not been made.

i most assuredly did not state you mentioned anything particular in context. i am mentioning what i mentioned as an obvious invitation to a clear trap for you, simply stated, and one that you should think a whole lot of times before approaching.

Kind of brings to mind the scene in the “Wizard of Oz” where the big, scary image of the wiz is warning Dorothy & company not to approach any closer. Remember what happened when they got closer and looked behind the curtain?

a yes or no will do, and we will take this Message 24554163 (linked here as i would not want you to shimmy away from the obvious questions) one step at a time, now that i have clearly shown you where i intend to go toward.

Again with all due respect, I am not really concerned about where you intend to go. You seem to ask a lot of questions without providing a lot in the way of meaningful input. You seem to ask a lot of questions and, if not answered to your particular satisfaction, then seem to imply the responder is somehow naive. You seem to imply that you have the “facts” and you imply those who disagree are also somehow naive. Enough.

At this point, maybe the best thing to say is that you have your opinion and I have my opinion and, if we don’t agree, so be it. In reality, neither of our opinions really matters that much in the whole scheme of things. The opinions that matter are those of the Tibetans.
