| Tsering Tsomo, speaking on behalf of the Society for Threatened Peoples, highlighted the recent shooting in Kardze, Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture (Sichuan Province) as a recent example of the People’s Republic of China being caught in a downward spiral of violence in Tibet. . . . Exercising its right to reply, the PRC accused NGOs of turning a “blind eye” and trying to politicize human rights. --Tibetan Center for Human Rights and Democracy, September 18, 2014 |
Your tears have a way of working.
The miracles they perform
Are dispatched to the authorities.
You say you mean peace. I say war
Is of more value. You do not intend
To harm me... it's said over and again.
Convince me!
String up those genocides for
All to see. Spit out
The eyes... take mine...
I don't need your need.
