Why Muslims do NOT support Tibetan cause ?
by John Corniche on Apr 10, 2008 12:38 PM

If you go through the messages across this board, you won't find a single message supporting Tibetans.

Tibet "may be or may not be" an internal issue of China. But its definitely an occupation & also, its ethnic cleansing of local populace.

Muslims try to compare Tibet to Kashmir. But these are totally different. Kashmir has their own CM through elections. And unlike Tibet where Han-Chinese are replacing local Tibetans, in Kashmir other Indians can not buy land or property.

And if one protests against Indian army presence in Kashmir, why don't they protest against Pak army's presence on other side (POK)? That sends the message "that its ok for Kashmiris to be ruled by Muslims Pak". Reality is quite different; ex-army officers of Pak are settling in large numbers in POK & are replacing the local Kashmiris. Whether this is acceptable ?

Coming back to Tibet, imagine if Muslims were the majority in Tibet ! Whether Indian govt would have reacted the same way ? Whether Islamic countries would have reacted the same way ? Just becoz Budhists are getting killed, is it ok ?

CPM in India acts as if they are the only party concerned about Muslims in India. Joke ... Communists are killing their own Muslims in China in another province. So, how does Indian Muslims react to this ?

If we have given refuge to Tibetans, we should atleast allow them protest "peacefully". Human beings killed in any country, of any religion or any caste is a crime.

Its shameful moment for Ind
