One can not deal with a normal law-abiding person and a hardned criminal in the same way. Standard rule does not work with everyone everywhere. One has to deal with the situation in a manner it makes the right impact. China is not a democracy. They do not care what others think of them. Past repressions on democratic movements in China is a clear indication of their style. If you deal with them in a middle-path approach, it will hardly make any impact on them. It is a waste of time. In the process, the young freedom-loving Tibetans will go impatient, leading to violence. Still, Chinese may not care. Because of the forthcoming Olympic, it is the right time to bring MAXIMUM pressure on China from all parts of the world, especially the developed countries. In fact, some countries should start talking about even boycott of Olympics unless the Tibetans are given their democratic rights -- autonomy. If so, Chinese might relent. Wish the Tibetans all luck.
