Has anyone considered that China may actually have a legitimate claim? I mean, Hawaii was only colonized in the late 1800s and incorporated into the US around the same time as Tibet (Tibet was definitely a continuous Chinese colony from at least the 17th century). Would you say Hawaiians have a legitimate claim for independence?
