Unless you are comfortable with letting the Tibetans duke it out with the massive Chinese army, it is the worlds business to make sure the dispute is solved reasonably.
Where is the basis for this argument?

1989- Democratic protesters stood up to the PRC for liberty

only to be suppressed by the PLA ARMY divisions and leaving hundreds if not thousands slaughtered!

2008- Tibetan citizens riot and attack Han buisnesses fighting to preserve tibetan culture and fighting for religious freedom....

and Suppressed by the PLA POLICE division....80 - 200 killed including 13 Hans killed by the rioters

Between these two events....two Chinese presidents have finished their terms and implemented an economic reform that raised a nations living standard.

Lets look at it this way

Would you rather have a Tibet under a theocracy? before PRC took power Tibet was still under a feudal system with surfs and slaves

Even the Dali Lama acknowledges this !

Politics and religion should always be kept separate. And the US is far from teaching China about Human Rights....who's responsible for that naked pyramid in Iraq?
