I've never seen them more nationalist.
What? Even more so than after this or that Japanese official visited this or that shrine, or some dingbat figher pilot managed to kill himself by ramming a US patrol aircraft?

By all accounts (from a range of disinterested sources) Tibetans don't wish to be part of China. On the contrary.

So what could be more simple?

And the fact that Peking has reacted to Tibetan nationalism now and in the past with the usual brutality shows that it simply isn't worthy of the imperialist role.
