If you have been keeping up with the recent protests in Tibet against the Chinese government's occupation of that country, then this beautifully done poster is self-explanatory.
Many Buddhist monks have left the peaceful confines of their temples to join the populace in protest and they too have been attacked and brutalized by the Chinese army. Using the upcoming Beijing Olympics as backdrop, the ad hopes to shock people with the purpose of galvanizing public opinion in support of the Tibetan people.
