We don't know whether the "reality" some western governments, NGOs and campaigners wish for can come true, most probably not, because we know that the free tibet comprise of some violent, terrorist, extremist and religious fundamentalist groups. The Tibetan Youth group has publicly threatened "suicide bombing" to gain independence. The foreign supporters should awaken and realize the sort of people the west is dealing with.
Now, was mujahideen what the west really "wanted"? Supported to pressure Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan regardless of long term strategy, the Taliban has become what it is today. Now it is tough trying to get rid of their own creation. This is the "reality" we are talking about.
The US and its allies supporting free Tibet will once again turn out to be a disappointment if they do not learn from past lessons and reflect on their excessive interference. Investment in disruptive forces could backfire because they are likely to get out of their control.

thanks very much for this post, what you said is just what our people want to say and let the west world know. In fact most of the separatists in Tibet are monks and the posterity of former Tibet slave owners and lords, because in old Tibet controlled by Dalai Lama had slavery and integrated constitution of religion and politics, Dalai is the toppest political leader and also the religious leader, monks were the ruling class having many privileges, but CCP changed all, CCP liberated the serfs and gave serfs lands, and crackdown some evil slave owners and lords, CCP acknowledged the monks as Buddhists but rip off their privileges, monks are still respected by Tibetan but they have no ruling previleges, so they are hostile against CCP and Han Chinese.
I think most of ordinary Tibetan support our gov.
