Tibet was effectively independent for decades before Chinese communist troops entered in 1950. The latest unrest began March 10 on the anniversary of a 1959 uprising against Chinese rule of Tibet.

The protests are an embarrassment for China, coming just weeks before the Beijing Summer Olympics ceremonies kick off with the torch relay, which is set to pass through Tibet.

I just hope none of this is funded by the Bush administration as an opening shot in the war the the PNAC types want to have with China after they've cleaned up Iran. That would be bad.
