    If you notice over the past few months china intensified/expand its territorial boundary claims including the sea. My guess is that it is trying to secure the perimeter to prevent a surprise attack. From whom? Things like these indicates clearly that something big is about to come.

    Dangerous (and potentially tragic), if true. And the Times of India is a reputable source.

    Bhutan is the last unspoiled, unadulterated kingdom on Earth: a peaceful, spiritual, extraordinarily beautiful country -- like a mini-Tibet, as it was a hundred years ago. Travel there is restricted, and national policy decisions are made mainly by the Senior Buddhist Lamas, who advise the King.

    The King of Bhutan has gone on record as stating in a speech: The Gross National Happiness is more important that the Gross National Product. An impressive and visionary policy statement from the leader of a nation-state in the 21st century.

    I lack two items that would be useful here:
    • A map showing the extent of the disputed territory, to see how much of Bhutan is currently claimed by China.
    • A crystal ball to know whether the Chinese claims will grow to "embrace" all of Bhutan, over time. That would indeed be tragic.

    It seems to me that over the last 10+ years China, Russia and US have been playing chess in the middle east. All with the intent of becoming the next super power or in the US' case, keeping it's status.

    I stumbled on the following document while researching China, Russia, US relations. It is from the carnegie endowment website so take it in with a grain of salt. It has interesting information on the nuclear capabilities of each nation and theorizes about each ones ability to use Nuclear stockpiles as effective deterrents and leveraging tools.

    I just hope Russia and China don't collaborate and preemptive strike. It sounds ridiculous but with the current situation of the US dollar, the US is left vulnerable to destabilization forces. Of course this would probably be a bit suicidal they could do enough damage to set all nations back to square one. Such a strategy seems to fit right into a genocidal NWO agenda.

    Only begins to answer your questions. Disputed borders of Bhutan and China, and other border disputes with China.

    I recently read that Bhutan was the first country to announce they were 100% organic... Perhaps a vicious attack by the GMO soy front?

    I know someone who just got back from a 6 month stay in Bhutan and returned a changed person, saying it was truly magical there. What a shame if it turned into yet another war-zone...

    I know this is kind of irrelevant, but I do not know why I want to write these down:

    Early this year, I have made my mind to go to "Tibet Autonomous Region" in Sichuan, China and to be a volunteer and teacher (Chinese, english, music...) in a tibetan buddhist temple which belongs a great tibetan buddhist master in Bhutan (DJKR).

    Anyway,I quitted my job in shanghai and planned everything (jounery starts in August, travel by train, and at first I will work for a grass root organization and foundation for orphan in tibetan region, and then make a pilgrimage to this place:


    I have this feeling of my life just begin and really hope that what I am doing will be will be benefiting this world......but I also think I am very unexperienced and short-sighted in this idealist lifestyle. Do people have suggestions or ideas to prevent some terrible things to happen?(both short term and long term I mean) Because I studied in media and making documentaries/letting people to have a voice where they are not allowed to have/changing the world was and is my dream still. (So I did plan to make some documentaries there).

    I wonder how long it will take for the true story to get out.

    Bhutan is awesome from what I read, and I really like the vibe that is projected by the King (and now Queen)



    Here is a nice story about the royal wedding with some background on the country.

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...ent-bride.html

    I am sure there is more to this story than meets the eye - I personally think India is up to no good goaded on by the Americans. (This is just speculation)

    I love the kings approach, the gross national happiness is more important than the gross national product ...no traffic lights, no road rage, the streets are clean, the people seem happy, they all speak well of the King, not one person ranting like we do here in the states ...there is a group of ET's in that area from way back ...the blue people ...agharta ... yes that city is still there and it is real ...
