The dragon tales - Part I

If the dragon's (yes, I am referring to the China) own theories are be taken to their logical conclusion, then China ought to be a part of Mongolia. But China is this self-righteous, hypocritical foul fire-breathing entity that will conveniently apply its pet theories to other nations (often with disastrous consequences for the nation at the receiving end) , but will resolutely punish any nation severely that lays claim to China itself based on the historical fact that China was once a part of another country, in this case, Mongolia.

China refuses to honour the 1940 Shimla agreement between the British and Tibetan authorities on McMohan line and on the other claims 90,000 square kilometres of territory that stretches beyond Arunachal Pradesh to the northern bank of the Brhamaputra in Assam which was once taken over by soldiers of the 33rd King of Tibet Songtsen Gompo. This is colossal greed and international rowdyism. China should note that. One can see the Chinese duplicity and dishonesty behind these unfortunate circumstances. So what does the dragon want with land that does not rightfully belong to it. Obviously it will plunder its natural resources, rape its people, stamp out their culture (in this case, Indian culture), and settle the occupied territories swiftly with the supposedly racially superior Han people from Mainland China. After all, the dragon thinks that every inch of land around it for now, belongs to it and its Han people. And nobody should question it, because it has the guns to silence any one that dares to step on its toes.

"Once Mongolian soldiers had conquered China. But on the basis of that historical fact, can China be called a part of Mongolia now?" Rinpoche asked to drive home his point.
