To play the victim offers no help for 'Tibet-independence daydream'

Soliciting sympathy
Wherever the Dalai Lama went, he would put on shows to convince others that he was misunderstood.
In its statements, the Dalai clique expressed so-called "concern," "sympathy," "sadness" and "worry" as if the Dalai Lama and his followers were the most miserable and innocent.
They have tried to convince others that they had nothing to do with the March 14 Lhasa riots, nor do they have intention of splitting China. They even claimed that they supported the Olympic Games in Beijing all along, and therefore all criticism against them was "groundless."
But facts speak louder. Some rioters who surrendered themselves to police confessed that the Dalai clique is the mastermind of the riots in Lhasa.
The fact that the Dalai clique has kept its "government in exile" and Tibetan separatists disrupted the Olympic torch relay only shows the Dalai clique's claims about not seeking Tibet independence and supporting the Beijing Olympics are nothing but pure lies.
The Dalai clique has reckoned that, by playing the victim and claiming innocence, they could shirk their responsibility, win sympathy and gain advantage by sowing discord.
Some Western media and politicians, however, while turning a blind eye to the violence and separatist motives of the Dalai clique, have commended the clique's activities as fight for human rights and against oppression.
Chinese President Hu Jintao said earlier this month the Tibet problem is entirely an internal issue of China and the conflict between the central government and the Dalai clique bears on national unification.
"Our conflict with the Dalai clique is not an ethnic problem, not a religious problem, nor a human rights problem. It is a problem either to safeguard national unification or to split the motherland," Hu said.
Facts are there for people to tell right from wrong. The Dalai clique must stop all their separatist activities if they wish to avoid ending up an outcast in history.
