Gary Wilson, but since he's pleading against the right-wing I suppose he's advocating the opposite stance which would be the same as Melenchon who's leaning far-left... I dunno I just don't buy into the evil-US thing I guess there's much more to learn if I keep my head cool... Yes, the US rule, and we both have the right to share different opinions regarding whether this is good news or not... Isn't it neat?
You can google and find Gary Wilson easily. Precisely, the right and left have different ideologies are now orchestrating to a common target of attacking China, its economic success, competitiveness, coming out party and to join the world. The book by French tycoon showed Tibetans are happy with the improvements in their way of life. That's 95 percent of Tibetans compared to 5 percent of lamas, lords, exiles, etc.

The world should be patient. Why see a glass half empty instead of half full. Why not recognise the achievements of China and then work from there gradually. The destructive nature of forces opposing China amounts to bullying and can't be all that innocent or benign unless you can prove it.

Most LDCs are chaotic because they could not cope with simultaneous changes. Gorbachev's glasnost failed flopped while China prospered.

China has shown restraint towards the Tibetan rioters and the atmosphere has relaxed over the years. Human rights and intrusion such as eavesdropping and compromising individual freedom on the grounds of security are happening in the west. China is moving forward while US is regressive.

Obviously we can't just ask anyone to promise us not to mess with people and just wait to see. There must be some kinda media check so everyone can know what's going on else where and justice can prevail. IMHO The capitalist way is much better in this regard than its communist counterpart if you wanna know.
Western countries should stop imposing so-called "democracy" on others because every country has different conditions - historical, social, economic and cultural. Why is US allowed to bend rules to suit its objectives, such as supporting Mujahideen/Taliban who Muslims and far from being democratic, autocratic regimes in the Third world and now Free Tibet who are theocratic. Listen to Cindy. She knows Tibet well.

How would you like it if other countries were to go round supporting underdogs and natives in USA, Canada, Australia to fight for human rights and seccession of Scotland, Ireland from UK, and minorities in Europe? There are plans by native Canadians to protest when the Olympics go there. There are hints that UK is having cold feet and may not have a torch relay when it host the Olympics. Moral of the story : do not do unto others what you would not have them do to you.

The fact is that only USA would invade others' territories, Iraq and Vietnam, with no historical claims whatsoever, but fabricated justifications. The argument that is is champion of democracy is just a facade to satisfy geopolitical, power, economic needs.
