Tibet was as provincial as the rest of china was before the communists, no doubt. The only reason the Han are hated so now is that the gov is so god-damned paternal about it to the Uighurs and Tibetans, that and a Han manifest destiny. Hu Jintao was in charge of Tibet during the troubles of 1989, his protege was then in charge of Tibet and took a harder line (confiscating Dalai Lama pictures), and then got promoted to xinjiang where he promptly started a get tough on islam campaign. Tell me how the national government isn't involved again? |
