Dalai Lama Biography and Life Story (full documentary)
The CIA paid the temporal (political) and spiritual leader of Tibet in their proxy war to undermine the Chinese Empire. And Tenzin Gyatso, the beloved 14th Dalai Lama, took the money, sent men to study war. They trained in the U.S. in the state of Colorado, and they came back armed to fight China on the ground. And we have been subjected to propaganda about the good monk ever since in a worldwide campaign to endear him to millions and to vilify the villainous CCP of China.

Tibet is this big compared to enormous China.

Undoubtedly, what China did in invading and ethnically cleansing autonomous Tibet, which covers a quarter of the landmass of China, is indefensible. The Chinese Communist Party is very much against Buddhism, though China is unofficially home to over a billion uncounted Buddhists.

What China continues to do to Uyghurs, Taiwanese, the citizens of Hong Kong, and Indians in and around Kashmir are terrible, illegal, and unconscionable. But we will not defend the CIA and their subterfuge. The Dalai Lama and his handlers, PR firms, and officials in his government-in-exile in Dharamsala, India, have some explaining to do.

If everyone would understand and accept why he became a CIA operative, why he sponsored war and aggression against the Han Chinese, and why he acts like a pope in front of the camera and a king behind it, then let us understand it. The proxy war continues. Let the Tibetan government be transparent.
