How China Annexed Tibet - Cold War DOCUMENTARY 

Up until now there was no official statement even by the UN that China is "occupying“ Tibet

We all must stand against western views and their imperialism mindset, invasion, colonialism, and occupation! We are done with the West!

In fact it was a invasion and occupation. Just not technically and it was a landlocked nation that was in the process of independence but got botched by party affiliates in its government and the Chinese seeing a opportunity to quickly Occupy the nation before it got admitted into the UN.

@@whoareyouyouareclearlylost323 When zero countries in the world recognized Tibet as separate from China, it was not "in fact" an invasion and occupation. Your username is a sufficient refutation of your own assertion. Who are you? Clearly your words hold less weight than the entirety of the world's diplomacy.

If GB didnt recognise Tibet... howd they go and sign agreements with Tibet?

Qinghai and partial Sichuan are pan-tibetan region, so a Qinghaibron Dalai is still considered Tibetan. But yes reincarnated Lama just a play

@@MARKINAU8 But those region never under Dalai Lama's government, in fact, even today's Tibet region was divided by two parts in old time and Dalai Lama controlled the eastern part, the western part was Panchen Lama in charge. By the way, the 10th Panchen Lama was born in Qinghai province too（100 km away from 14th Dalai Lama's birth place）. And he didn't involved the rebellion of Dalai group. He became Vice chairman of the CPPCC National Committee (similar level as vice premier) twice, and died with cardiac disease in 1989.

@@MARKINAU8 Qinghai was ruled by its Muslim population then.

@@weishi9804 the hui population came in to Qinghai(Amdo) from Shaanxi and Ningxia sent by the Qing emperor in the 18th century. They were fighting from late 1700's even into the warlord period after the breakdown of Qing empire in the early 1900's....

They had no choice in the matter on Outer Mongolia - anything else would have seen Mao's gang smashed by Stalin

The only reason the CCP was less irredentist is because Mongolia at the time was ruled by a Soviet Communist puppet. The ROC saw Soviet influence in Mongolia as an expansion into rightful Chinese territories. Sometimes it's important to notice history from the historical lens of their times. I am willing to bet that Mao would've tried to claim or even expand into Outer Mongolia , had it was the Russian Empire that installed a puppet there.

Did your red communist Beijing history book told you that?

Funny. It was history that British Empire agitated Tibet interest group for independence, and Britain fabricated Simla Agreement. Of course, Britain and Tibet local interest group signed on it. It is absurd this video’s author repeatedly mentioned this Simla agreement, as if this were a legal binding document. Simply British Empire just wanted, at that time, to annex Tibet from China, and put it as an autonomous state in a transitional period. End of day, Britain dreamed of merging Tibet into British India. But that is a dream only. Will never happen. In short, I am more than happy to see Scotland, as well as Northern Ireland to break from UK. Should be able to witness this.

It happened in the 19th century, so I'm not sure you'd see it on this channel.

China has no true claim on Tibet and out of Tibets history which goes back (in terms of people living their as Tibetans) To likely 10, 000 or more years but in "proper" history it goes back for at least 2300 years or even longer depending on various sources but is at least 2300 years (likely longer) Out of Tibets very ancient history of course its had skirmishes invasions and it itself invaded other empires , countries etc (including the Tang dynasty of china But out of Tibets 1000s of years of history only 2 times is their any argument that it was occupied "by china" (pre ccp) One was as you said the Yuan dynasty which absolutely was a foreign ruler over china. Look at the mongol empire map and yuan dynasty was literally just one province (area) of its empire and was ruled by rulers such as Kubla khan and relatives /ancestors and yes it took on court system of china (as it invaded and took it!!) and it took on some aspects of china culture but it was absolutely a foreign ruler and part of the wider mongol empire so absolutely in no way , shape or form can they sue the excuse of the yuan dynasty (not to mention the yuan didnt even really properly fully rule over Tibet in the first place and was a priest patron relationship (even prior to the yuan mongols had some influence in Tibet and vice versa) And even if it was a fully han Chinese empire and even if it did invade and occupy Tibet for 100/150 Years that is no way enough. Then after that was the Han ming who had very little to do with Tibet besides trade and maybe some diplomacy etc and after was again a Non han dynasty from the Manchuria the Jurchen ethnic people or the Manchu Qing dynasty which also was seen as foreign invaders and even more then then mongols took on aspects of the predominant majority han culture but if you read any history you will see much of the han were Not happy being ruled by what they seen as "people from the steppes" and foreign invaders and even so the fact the Manchu Qing dynasty actually ruled over Tibet is also up for debate at best as during that time Tibet seemed to be doing most things itself with almost no Chinese or even Manchurian in Tibet and tibetans making there own decisions for the m most part so maybe like a protectorate state of Qing. Anyway lets just say that both the yuan mongol empire and the Manchu Qing dynasty werent foreign dominators of china (and sorry to say to the Chinese this absolutely 100% must be taken into consideration as whether they can claim Tibet especially in regards to the yuan and even the qing) Anyway lets say that the yuan and Qing were fully han dynasties and lets say both took fully over tibet and ruled tibet (even under those circumstances wouldn't be a claim on Tibet as Tibets history goes back at least 2300 years and you can not say bcos they were invaded and occupied a few times for a few hundred years out of 1000s of years of history with 2 diff dynasties who didnt even rule side by side of each other that even that is a claim that Tibet belongs to china and they know this (and that is even if it wasnt the mongol empire extentsion which ruled over china and Qing who also ruled over china and both didnt even fully rule over Tibet..lets face it Patrick the Chinese have no real historic claims at all whatsoever to any of Tibet (besides from maybe some border regions) many countries have had foreign influence and for much longer then Tibet but for the overwhelming majority of Tibets history it wants under any rule let alone chinas rule ..they know it , we know it , we all know it ..Tashi delek , Tujey che , Böd Gyalo ..and I think this guy video is from a pro china one ..Tibet is occupied by China and almost no Chinese lived in Tibet pre 1950 (except in some border regions) Free Tibet

Of course there were tibetans backed up by CIA, they dont waste time and meddle into every corner of the world, imagine if it was the other way around...

and when is recalled is justified with the worst imperialist apologetic tone

What’s forgotten is how terrible the Dalai Lama was and is. Tibet is better off with China than with him.

The same type of wealth and land transfer from religious ownership to secular happened in protestant countries hundreds of years ago. It's not weird, it's logical. Secular ownership typically encourages innovation and efficiency and thus more than religious ownership. This can be seen throughout history.

Surprised by your interest in Tibet. But I don't think it's a conflict between the Communist Party and Buddhism because the Communist Party doesn't want to destroy the Dalai Lama. but wants an agricultural revolution that is a class struggle

before 1950, 95% of Tibetans were serfs of the Lamas. A few Lamas and rich landlords owns everything.

Smart man, do some research Tibet was ruled by the noble caste and the monks led by the “divine Dalai Lama” mind you the Dalai Lama was selected by the nobles 😂 that’s how they reincarnated. Anyway back in the serf day, the monks and nobles went mad, the way the punished their serfs was worse than demons, including skinning baby’s from the bottom half, using seed bones as musical instruments, and using skins to write sutras 😂. Ask the Dalai Lama what happens to the serfs when they get back in power? These faction rebelled against the Chinese gov, and the Chinese liberated the serfs. Go to Tibet and see the musuems, you will be shocked and disgusted at how they twisted Buddhas philosophy. Disgusting demons

If you have heard of the atrocities committed by Tibetan slave owners and the horrific religious ceremonies, you will feel that the black slaves who grew cotton in the United States in the 19th century were all happy.

The map was of the entire Tibetan plateau. Fairly common if you look up “China broken up” or “independant tibet”

@@SirSamuel_Smith_Squirrel_TheIV it's fairly obvious this map represents Tibet as a political entity, not the geographic Tibetan plateau. Otherwise they could include an even larger part of Xinjiang if so

It’s a map of the Tibetan cultural-linguistic area - ‘Greater Tibet’ (which is why it is projected as the area for an independent Tibet). Sizeable parts of the provinces neighbouring Tibet are or were demographically dominated by Tibetans. I have spent a whole trip travelling around the Tibetan areas of Sichuan province for example.

According to the logic of Westerners, there is no country or region that should not be independent. The United States is a new country established by European pirates who exterminated the aborigines and invaded their land. Scotland and Northern Ireland in the United Kingdom were first slaughtered by the Anglo-Saxons through war and then colonized for a long time.

Not all of Tibet. Only Dali Lama parts. There is a Panchen Lama. His lands are not Dali Lama's. Tibet is not a nation, but a feudal state. With Dual Lama's. It's like having Two Popes.

@@armchairwarrior963 It depended on when and where. Tibet was run by various kings and religious authorities, but local leaders always had the most say.

Tibet was independent for most of its history. It was ruled by Yuan, the Mongol dynasty that also ruled China, but it was never ruled by China directly until the invasion. Before that Tibet was just a vassal state that paid tribute to China but that was about it.

@@denvergamingzone9766 true. I will never say that watching 6:17 is heartwarming.

I suppose the "whataboutism" came about because non-Western people find that a Western person making such criticism is hypocritical, given the history of Western nations.

the difference is: Tibet was part of China since 1700. so it was more like a separatists movement. a good comparison would be the US civil war. would you say the north invaded and annexed the south when they wanted to be an independent country?

It is not about whataboutism. It is about justice. Germany faced justice. Japan faced justice in the form of 2 nuclear detonation. Iraq, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, Cuba and many more are still waiting for justice to be serve. Instead the criminals are deflecting their own crime to avoid justice.

The comments are from Beijing paid wumaos . That's why. They don't want the world to know the truth, just like they have rewritten truth in China about their history.

Interestingly, according to declassified CIA documents, from 1957-1962, the CIA airdropped 20 teams of trained terrorists from Fort Hale into Tibet. Of all these teams, 19 of them were all captured or killed within two weeks. The one remaining team managed to evade the PLA for two years before simply fleeing Tibet, having done nothing other than run from the PLA troops the entire time. What is fascinating about this history is that, it simply could not have been accomplished without Tibetans themselves being extremely hostile to these terrorists and working with the PLA to capture or kill them. They were obviously unable to get any assistance from the Tibetans living in Tibet, which tells you a lot about what the Tibetans who actually live in Tibet think about U.S. attempts to destabilize their homeland.

@@jasonjean2901 True. The narrative of the Cold War Team and its viewers are utterly devoid of the concept of class struggle being biased towards its western side of the ideological concept. They make it so there is no distinction between the oppressed peasantry of Tibet that supported the PLA and the theocratic Budhists elite that are used paradoxically by the CIA as a justification to fight against a revolutionary liberation army of a then anti imperialist nation. Its a well made video but the bias is to much as if the Cold War was still present.

Most were illetrate and barely knew anything.

Considering the fact that China faced resistance (even though little) can be considered that people DID care that they were invaded. Not to mention, a lot of Tibetans migrated from Tibet to India, Nepal and Bhutan. Many of them today advocate for the independence of Tibet and are ardent followers of their former theocratic ruler, the Dalai Lama.

@@riverman6462 that China faced some resistance can just be proof that the nobles and clerics had some loyal personal troops whose fortunes were tied to their own. And the fact that they refused to expand the army to arm the peasantry even at the cost of losing badly hints at what Tibetan rulers thought the opinion of the people might be. Today we hear very loud proclamations of support for a return to theocracy by Tibetans living abroad because many of them are part of that exodus of nobles and priests, people who would be returning to positions of authority and privilege in a “free” Tibet.
