Look no matter how you feel about the China and i dislike their government as well the “kidnapped” person was according to them relocated and allowed to live a regular life and there is something to be said to not allow a six year old to be forced to a religious figure forced to abide by among other things vows of celibacy.
Ah yes instead of indoctrination into the religion of his people he gets indoctrinated into the thinking of a politcal state hostile to his people. Basically equivalent /s
The CIA was highly active in Tibet from the 1950s through the 70s. The current Dalai Lama absolutely worked with the CIA at one point. Whether that relationship is ongoing is unclear, but he is closer to the US and her allies than he is to China.
You’re not allowed to talk about this. This is Far-Left Tankie Bullshit Lies and also it doesn’t matter and also nothing the Dali Lama or his brother said in hindsight matters.
In 1999, the Dalai Lama suggested that the CIA Tibetan program had been harmful to Tibet because it primarily served American interests, claiming “once the American policy toward China changed, they stopped their help … The Americans had a different agenda from the Tibetans.”
Gyalo Thondup, the Dalai Lama’s elder brother, also expressed frustration with the role of the CIA in Tibetan affairs. In a 2009 interview, he stated “I never asked for CIA military assistance. I asked for political help. I wanted to publicize the Tibet situation, to make a little noise. The Americans promised to help make Tibet an independent country. All those promises were broken.” He continues, claiming that America “didn’t want to help Tibet. It just wanted to make trouble for China. It had no far-sighted policy for Tibet. I wasn’t trained for this (clandestine operations). We didn’t know about power politics.”
The important thing to remember is that Tibet is a free country being villainously occupied and oppressed by the Evil Chinese Invaders. Everyone in Tibet hates everyone in China. They yearn for freedom. And if we can just put enough heavy weapons into the hands of Tibetian dissidents the country will explode into a liberal democracy of freedom and liberty and Buddhism which is the one good religion that everyone on Lemmy loves.
Hes only saying that because he was kidnapped and brainwashed

Brainwashed Panchen Lama vs CIA operative Dali Lama, who will win?
Obviously, anyone who doesn’t like their people being genocided by the CCP must be a CIA operative.

You think Kash Fucking Patel somehow even understands what Buddhism is?
You need to quit the movies kok
You got the wrong agency. Kash Patel is head of the FBI. The director of the CIA is John Ratcliffe.
