Tibet is not sitting on any oil reserves, nor does it have tons of uranium reserves etc, which does not make it as one of the coveted nations in the world. With all natural resourses depleted & a barren land unfit for even cultivation, which western power is willing to sacrifice its men & money trying to defend freedom & democracy in Tibet.
Because that pea size Kuwait has billions of barrels of oil as reserve, the US led forces wanted to or rather LIBERATE this third rated Arab country like Kuwait which has no Human rights & abuses it to the limits. Similar is the case with all these moronic Arab countries, US & the Western forces are very worried about their sovernity & security & will fight it to the finish.
Like I say, when Rwanda was attacked & a million souls were killed , all US did was to paste a protest note on the UN's official Bill Board.
