As for west caring about Tibet, thats just bs. Tibet problem? what problem. Hillary Clinton didn't seem to give a flying f*** about Tibet, as long as China can buy more US treasury bills. In the real world, money talks, b******* walks.
Ethnicity doesn't define a country. Self determination does. China is a multicultural country. Fine I accept that. But multiculturalism does not come at the expense of a nation's self-determination.

I never said the West cared about Tibet... but I do give a "flying f*ck".
