How come there is hardly any attention paid here to the continued genocide of Tibetans by China, while there is daily brouhaha over Iraq and Palestine (even though Iraq openly supports India)?

Are we hypocrites who find some innocent lives more valuable than others?

How so?

Thats my heritage. (not sure thats how u spell it :D)
Bah! Happened in SA, happens in RSA, happens in DRC, it happens everywhere. You can shed as many tears as you want. Say as much as you want. But unless you tackle why the chinese perform these crimes you arent getting anywhere
The suffering of innocent muslims everywhere is our problem, the Chinese are commiting horrific crimes against our people, but the worst and most hateful are those Israeli massacres of innocent Palestinians. Those jew parasites are the enemies of Islam, go to there sites, there forums and read there hatred for us.
I'm no extremist, but on the case of Israelis I make an exception-I hate them.

Thanks for proving my hypothesis.
"How come there is hardly any attention paid here to the continued genocide of Tibetans by China, while there is daily brouhaha over Iraq and Palestine."
No CNN, no al-Jazeera. The worst crimes are always committed in the dark.
and, it sort of spoils the illusion that the US is behind everything.
Sorry, Mo, i honestly am NOT stalking you in the forums, neither do i possess any intentions of constantly providing counter-arguments to whatever you write. But i find it as impossible to stay quiet regarding your statements about Israelis and Jews, as i do about issues such as Palestine or sanctions on Iraq.
IMHO a significant proportion of individuals who are working for justice for the Palestinian people, are not Muslims - Noam Chomsky, Amira Hass, Gideon Levy, Ilan Pappe, Uri Avnery, Robert Fisk, Hanan Ashrawi, Edward Said, John Pilger. Of the nine names i just listed basically off the top of my head, the first five are Jews and the last four are all Christians. Based upon my own personal experiences over the past three years, i have come across Jews and Catholics both more willing - than Muslims - to do the tedious, activist work on behalf of the Palestinian (and Iraqi) cause whether this entails participating in demos/rallies in -10 degree weather, developing press releases, lobbying Members of Parliament by arranging visits, organizing media interviews with TV/print media, etc. i think their tireless work has to be acknowledged. To paint them all with one brush - they’re all terrorists, they’re all sub-human - is to deprive ourselves of a wonderful opportunity to learn more about diverse beliefs as well as to know, on a one-to-one level, some truly generous and open-minded individuals. To paint them all with one brush, is no different than Muslim females being branded as subdued, repressed and oppressed, or Muslim males being simplistically painted as domineering and fanatic.
Just my two cents.
