Mongolia and Manchuria became part of China not from Chinese Han expansionism of conquest but because China was conquered by the Mongols and the Manchus and became part of THEIR empires. So too did Tibet when it ran wars into China in an expanding of the Tibetan Empire &#8211; and was defeated and absorbed in turn. Chinese culture is an amalgamation of all the different cultures that were absorbed into the greater Chinese diaspora.<br \/>\nThey who do not know history and are content in creating their own versions from western propaganda make themselves foolish by opening their mouths on topical subjects that they have absolutely no idea about.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Bonus film &#8211; Jerry Grey in conversation with Ben Norton &#8230;<\/p>\n<a class=''  href='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=q3VqIHZAHQU?a=a' rel='r15958'>[640],shadow=true,start=,stop=<\/a><script>kinaVP.jQ(document).ready(function(){setTimeout(function(){kinaVP.VASE();},40);});<\/script><script>kinaVP.jQ(document).ready(function(){kinaVP.VASE();});<\/script><script>kinaVP.VASE();<\/script>\n<p>With <em>Reports on China<\/em> &#8230;<\/p>\n<a class=''  href='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=G-98NJtUwnY?a=a' rel='r15958'>[640],shadow=true,start=,stop=<\/a><script>kinaVP.jQ(document).ready(function(){setTimeout(function(){kinaVP.VASE();},40);});<\/script><script>kinaVP.jQ(document).ready(function(){kinaVP.VASE();});<\/script><script>kinaVP.VASE();<\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The true measure is : does the government work for the people, or vice versa.
