How does a country deal with violent riots and uprising. Of course by using violence. You have to use fire to fight fire. Do you really think those Tibetans would calm down if the Chinese government told them to stop? Pro-Tibet people say that the Chinese government is "abusing human rights by arresting important figures (monks) of the Tibetan "government"". Of course they would be, you cut of the head and the body dies. Or would you rather have the Chinese government just kill all the rioters instead? I think if we weight the two different options, arresting a few monks does not seem so significant. |
The monks don't encourage violent uprisings; so is it fair - even if it's the lesser of two evils - to do such a thing?
