What is non-encyclopedic about the statement, "What is more, his troops went on a rampage through Lhasa and its environs, looting, raping and killing"? It's certainly pertinent information that the Zunghars went in with the Tibetans expecting them to be benefactors, and the Zunghars planning to be received as benefactors, and then utterly destroyed those expectations in this fashion. This is how Mullin characterizes Desideri's first-hand account of the Zunghar occupation of Lhasa. Bertport (talk) 17:01, 10 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
What is "POV" about it? If you have another source that says otherwise, then we can include that too, and point out that there is disagreement amongst scholars. Otherwise, it stands as the historical account of what happened. Bertport (talk) 14:48, 13 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
