Some peace plans sound promising, until you read the fine print.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8d3AlSDWr_Q

What’s really being offered… and what’s being left out? Who stands to gain, and who’s being asked to surrender twice? This isn’t just diplomacy, this is a high-stakes script, and every word carries weight.

Let’s talk honestly about what’s on the table and whether it leads to peace… or just a pause button on war.

Throwback: CIA's Covert Ops in Tibet – Fueling the 1962 India-China War?

Who would've guessed? The Tibetan "independence movement" wasn't just a sideshow; it served as a key CIA instrument to undermine China and spark broader conflict, including the 1962 Sino-Indian War.

Declassified documents from the 1990s show that the Dalai Lama personally pocketed around $180,000 annually from the CIA, starting in the late 1950s.

💵 The agency funneled about $1.7 million each year to Tibetan separatists, funding militant training, supplies, reconnaissance missions (some launched from Pakistan), and propaganda efforts, all aimed at escalating tensions in the Himalayas.

A new study published in the Journal of Public Affairs argues that these US covert strategies, rather than border disputes, were the real driver behind the 1962 war.
