As you can see the riots were initially begun by Chinese government agents posing as monks to crush any peaceful protest by tagging it violent. Second objective to throw away foreign media so that Chinese government can massacre Tibetans in complete silence. Sadly I must objective achieved. But what was supposed to contained and restricted to Lhasa, has spread through out. Tibetans are now protesting peacefully and violently all over tibet, beijing and China, and world. In a way Chinese Governments stupid and deadly plan has backfired. Tibetans are rejecting to die a silent death! Dalai lama should step down and let Tibetans handle themselves.
