On what fucking planet do you live on? Of course, in everybody's mind a FREE TiBET means a Tibet that people can...enjoy not only religious freedom but economic freedom as well... Except maybe the Chinese. So yes of course some benefits might come out of this train for the Tibetans. But what is the main goal of building this railway? Helping the Tibetans enjoy economic freedom? Wow. Think man think. Don't be scared, it wont hurt you on the contrary... Sorry man but what is so difficult to understand about the fact that the Tibetans are/where a sovereign nation with its own written language, its own culture, its own religion and so forth and that they have been BRUTALLY invaded by the Chinese. They are outnumbered by the Chinese and are second order citizens in their own land. And this is what this train will do to Tibet. Make it more and ever more Chinese. I don't know how you can come up with such an idiotic point of view but let me tell you that it should be to the Tibetans alone to decide whether they want to have a train running on their land or if they want to be Buddhist or Taoist or communist or whatever. Tibetans want to live free on their land with a democratically elected, non-religious government. But the Chinese have a very different agenda and they are holding very, very tight to it.
FREE TIBET!
