Truth

March 14th, 2008, riots happened in Tibet. Many harmless people were killed. Buildings and cars were burnt. Many of Chinese consulates were destoried by exiled Tibets... I made this video to record this riots and expose the truth.

Your film is really cool, and I think what you wanna talk about in the film is worthy of attention. The importance of the human rights is always a big issue for all the progressive countries, Of crouse the Chinese government should face it positively. Maybe the Chinese government was not doing something wrong, however, in my opinion, mabye it could have a better way to handle this Tibetan problem.

Good job dear!
However, I think human right and media reporting call for deep thought in this issue. Probably, the Chinese authority should handle this insurgence more "softly"?

Thanks for viewing my video. I think different politics ideas are acceptable. But why exiled Tibetans didn't burn government or attack army? Why did they just attack those innocent, unarmed citizens? They even killed little children. I think the responsiblity of government is protecting their people. Moreover, the Chinese government didn't assign armies to counterattack exiled Tibetans but protect people. I don't think The Chinese government did anything wrong on this issue. No matter what countries, what government, they will do the same thing: protecting their citizens

The video is great. You really master the video skills. As for the issue, people fight for their own reasons. Not all faults on the Tiebet government in exile or PRC government. The conflicts between them and the residents have existed for a long time and bursted sometimes, like Indonesia. The only thing I could wish is the whole violence will end up soon and they will find new balances between different ethics and political parties.

Good job with this video. It definitely brings attention to the violence going on in Tibet right now. Protesters also marched outside of the UN last week in solidarity. We can only hope that the Dalai Lama's message of peace will trickle down to the streets of Tibet. Unfortunately, I worry what affect this could have on upcoming Olympics. Will other countries boycott the Olympics there?

nice!! i like it . the idea about this film is wonderful.
No matter what is the reason of a conflict, the harmless people will be hurt .Tiebet belong to China for a long time and people here have a happy life ,the leader of Tiebet should make the people safe ,happy and peaceful,why bring them so much pain .sometimes, maybe, counterattack some is the best way to protect the others.maybe PRC goverment has no other better choice. however, fight is not good.
buy the way, wish you polish this film in the future .

There are many pictures in this film taken by different media.In this event,I do not think any one of us can totally understand what exactly happened in Tibet,it erupted suddenly,but it originated from historical reasons.We could do nothing before we know the truth.some documents shows that it is also related with CIA.
There are no friends and enimies,just interest.
War is the continuity of the politics ,and Politics is the unblooded war .To be honest,it is very hard for an ordinary person to know what is really happend .The manners that The media broadcast this pictures and movies just like a movie called Rashomon: the story about three persons saw the same event,but did three very differernt presentation in the court.They just care what they want to care.What about the truth ? Who knows and who really cares .

According to Newsweek's articles about Tibetan protest, young Tibetan exiles want to use violence to fight for their land and their autonomy.

From the Chinese government's view point, Tibetans are ungrateful superstitous wretches, for the government invests millions of dollars in Tibet. From Tibetan's view point, the ethnic Han Chinese are the beneficiaries of the economic development in Tibet.

Is it wrong for people to fight for their rights even they use violence? Or is it wrong for the ruler to protect its people by suppressing the protest violently? One thing for sure, Chinese government has to find out why Tibetans risk their life to start this riot, for Tibetans must know the consequences of the government's retaliation. You can't rule by ignorance and indifference to the needs of your people.

Nice work!

Here are some other video worth to be checked out i guess.

This one is holding some pretty extreme views, but do have some points here and there, at least from my perspective.
Tibet WAS,IS,and ALWAYS WILL BE a part of China
The following one freatures Richard Gere, the long time figure involving the issue of Tibet.
Richard Gere On CNN
u can see two absolutely opposite views.

Really complicated situation, a lot of historical and political factors involved.Anyone, i mean anyone, who's gonna comment on the issue will hold some bias.
Agree with snowman, CIA does involve in the issue. there are no real friends or enemies, only the regarding interest for eternity.
I'm not there, so I don't know what really happening. I seriously doubt what i saw in the media, whether chinese or western ones. Indeed even i could been there what i saw would also held some bias.
Just wishing there could be a proper solution makes things worked out...

It is going to be interesting to see how the riots pan out as the time gets closer to the Olympic Games. Perhaps Tibetans will have a mass protest at that time to make the world pay attention to their cause. Interesting articles!
