1. Nobody cares if Tibet had been part of the PRC for 10 million years.
It is irrelevant. NOBODY CARES.
2. The issue is whether the Chinese (and this includes the Tibetans) are
free. The simple fact is that they are not. That is what people are
protesting.
3. Some Tibetans (like some Hawaiians, some from Quebec, some Puerto
Ricans etc) would like to dissolve the political bonds. They have the
right to express this opinion, and to try to make it come true.
