Little sympathy for Tibet protesters among Chinese

BEIJING-Conspiracy theories, denunciations of the Dalai Lama and an unflinching belief that Tibetans are better off under China's rule.The views of many people in China on the recent unrest in Tibet could be plucked verbatim from the most fiery editorials of the Communist Party's official newspapers.As authorities in Tibet announced dozens of arrests following anti-Chinese riots that rocked the remote Himalayan region, Han Chinese in Beijing on Thursday applauded the crackdown."They should suppress the riots, no matter using police or using military force and put the real criminals in prison," said Zhang Ming, a 25-year-old Beijing office worker."I don't have any sympathy for these people."Zhang, like many other Han Chinese, who make up the vast majority of China's 1.3 billion people, can't see what Tibetans would have to be unhappy about."I don't think Tibetans want independence. Tibet is treated well under the Chinese government.Any normal Tibetans would be happy live under Chinese rule,"Zhang said.China's rapid response to the Tibetan unrest, which began in regional capital Lhasa last weed and has since spread to neighboring provinces, has seen troops pour into ethnic Tibetan villages and journalists kicked out of sensitive areas.Like China's senior leaders, ordinary Chinese say they have little doubt as to the real drivers behind the unrest."I personally believe the Dalai Lama is behind the protests," said a retired housewife surnamed Geng."I don't believe his feelings towards the Communist Party could have changed."
