Invading the Sovereign Land of Tibet and self imposing rule on the indigenous people of Tibet is a Crime ...

But sadly what Choice India had which itself was a colony of Britain ...

It is very wrong to say that. In fact, the Indian soldiers had to fight the Qing troops.

This Qing gate was photographed on the way to Tibet.

Qing troops were not present in Tibet during British expedition, Qings sent their own Expedition in 1910 to integrate Tibet into China.

Are you blind? One of the photos clearly show a Qing soldier and the sign at the gate is written in Chinese.

If Tibet didn't belong to Chinese, why the Sino-British treaty of 1906 regarding Tibet.
