=46rom 1950-1970 CIA sponsored war in Tibet thousands were killed.
From1987- 1989 hundreds were killed or wounded and hundreds of shops,
cars and houses were brunt.
Now 2008 dozen were killed and many houses, cars and building were
burnt to the ground.
This is the violent nature of CIA thugs. The did it all the time all
over the world.
