3. If the government of China discovers oil in Tibet, then will Tibet become less peaceful?

6. This would be my guess too, plus ...
... no "rare" resource up for grabs giving the occupiers justification for fighting.

Of course, if there were troops there, the U.S. would send money and arms to both sides to insure the conflict continue before deciding who should "win".

8. Try using the ignore individual thread option.

You can access it via the little box (containing an "x") at the end of the thread title.

Alternatively, you can ignore all threads created by Boojatta. It's your choice.
