Correction: There are NO Tibetan areas of China.

Tibet is Tibet and China is China.

johninnaha, that would be news to Tibetans living in west Sichuan and virtually all of Qinghai, living there as their ancestors did. They did not move; borders were changed. Some of the Tibetan's most sacred locations such as the Kumbum Monastery are no longer "in" Tibet.

China is a cauldron, with volatile fuel supplied from multiple sides, and its political structure aggravates the situation by allowing no outlet for grievances and no satisfactory, permanent solutions. Zhongnanhai must change or it will be changed. The former can be guided; the latter would be revolution. They are running out of time.

I believe "India-based Tibetan government-in-exile" should be responsible for the unrest and dead case, this organization is definitely a violant and terrorism type of organization since couple years ago when Dalai Lama stepped down from leader position. It's no doubt the organization back up the "attack type protest". Moreover, although China communist party is not good and deserved to be strongly criticized, however it should not be done by the US government who killed more innocent foreigners than any government and it is a bad example as well.
