That was already ended centuries ago.
How? Is Tibet not still illegally occupied? Don't you mean, it's
politically incorrect because it does have any oil and China is very
big.

Whats the point? You think a few lefties getting irate is going to make
the country with the worlds largest standing army quite tibet? Get real.

Besides , the only thing the BBC cares about outside britain is the USA and
Isreal+palestine. Anywhere else only gets a mention if theres a natural
disaster or plane crash and even then it'll probably only get 2nd billing
to Obamas dog farting.

Thank you Boltar. Got it in one!

Also, check out (a) the World Service, now easily available here in
the UK, and (b) The World Tonight on R4.

Quite why I'm posting this bemuses even me.

Erm, I think the point of the post is that at least one lefty doesn't
get upset about Tibet. Like the Northern Irish and the Falkland
Islanders (etc), the Tibetans might make the Wrong Choice.

Thank you. National Public Radio often carries World Service
Newscasts. Most afternoons I catch the end of "The World Tonight"
just before "Book at Bedtime" on my PC. Keep in mind it is eight
hours earlier here.

I was talking about the main TV news - you know, the source that most people
get their news from. Yes on their news web site you can find world news (though
usually very little on the main page) but if you're on the web anyway you might
just as well go to the original source assuming its in english or a language
you can understand.

Yeah, but if we get any further off-topic we'll end up discussing the
Principality of Sealand! :-)
