Guy, The problem is the similarity or difference between Kashmir and Tibet is not decided by you. Some say it is similar, some say it is different. Who knows? You say your words. They say their words. Democracy or democrazy, right. The key is India recognized Tibet is a part of China. What can you do for this? TO solve the problem ,there are two ways. One is to reason and talk sense, the other is to resort force. India does not know how to talk sense. Indians know how to argue and quarrel for years and do not move. China knows to discuss among political bureau and have a consencus and then move. So, they can finish everything. India can not even finish a road in five years. So, China means what they say. If India do not cooperate, they have enough measures to give India hard time. This is a fact. Big mouth solves no problem.

Tibet is sovereign country. China ruled it for few hundred years doesn't mean it is part of china. Can we accept India is part of Britain, since Britain ruled India for 3 centuries.
Infact Tibet is more close to India than China. Indian history texts and hindu textures talk lot of synonymous of Himalayas with India. Most of the Himalayas is in Tibet. In the foul play of British, we gave hundreds of thousands of sq mile land to Tibet which China has swallowed. We have to know our history, so that we stand up to China to claim our land. Sources of Ganga, and Bhramaputra were always in India -except since 1948.

Nico Davis,
Being an engineer, I very well understand "Get the job done" attitude. I agree that Big mouth solves no problems. Action is required. The question is what action ?
We cannot be naive to believe that international problems are solved by morality. No position is right or wrong. Right position is what is in the interest of your country. If there is a conflict of interest, it is solved by negotiations. Only thing that matters during negotiations is military might, economic might and lessons that we learn from history! Dont fight with someone who has nuclear weapons. Develop your own and then negotiate!
