"Free Tibet" protestor breaches Wen's security: Bangalore

[Bhaisahab]

While the Chinese Prime Minister was meeting scientists on the ground floor of the IISc building, a Tibetan protestor held a dramatic protest on the roof.

Tenzing Tsundue, the general secretary of the Friends of Tibet, appeared on top of the Indian Institute of Science building. He hoisted the Free Tibet banner in full glare of the international media.

There were tense moments as police feared the youth might jump from the building.

Though the police managed to arrest him, the protestor had already strewn the campus with Free Tibet literature and rent the Sunday afternoon quiet with his slogan "Azaadi hona chahiye" (we want freedom).

"There is a lapse. There is no doubt about it," said Kishore Chandra, joint commissioner of police, Karnataka.

The 40,000 Tibetan refugees living in the southern state had been warned not to stage any protests during the Chinese Premier's visit to Karnataka.

5. "Hero" is the first word that came to my mind too! People call aWol

brave. aWol's done nothing in his life and ran like a coward from National Guard duty. Then look at this kid. Heaven was made for a person of honor and action like this boy has! The boy has more courage than the entire NeoCon Republican party and all the NeoCon Whore Tanks, Heritage, Hoover, AEI, PNAC...

7. local media here is reporting

he spent close to three days hidden in the huge building, without food or water, which is why he could evade the police cordon. and its not the first time he's done it. he's in a lot of trouble though, the govt will come down on him like a ton of bricks and he wont get much public sympathy either. these days no one in india gives a fuck about the tibetan refugees. its the chinese who we all wanna dance with.

"In May 1995, Chinese occupying forces abducted the six year-old Panchen Lama from his home in Tibet. No one there has seen or heard from him since. His abduction was a crime not only against an innocent child, but against the Tibetan nation and its way of life.

In this, the tenth anniversary of his abduction, Free Tibet Campaign will relaunch the campaign for his freedom, determined to make 2005 the year of his release..."

Don't let the Chinese do to the indiginous people of Tibet, what The U.S. Government did to OUR indiginous people here in America!
