The only way to deter chinese agression against tibetans is to talk to it in the language china understands and that language is through the projection of power through strong nuclear deterence. Until the ATV get inducted into the forces through it the third strike capability comes online, we will have to wait patiently and not let emotions in the way of making critical foreign policy decisions.
Right now Tibetans should advocate the demand for free tibet peacefully as preached by dalai lama. Any violence at this juncture will only harm tibet's cause in the long run and no western power is willingly to intervene to protect tibetans. India will be in an position to protect tibetans in tibet only when an assured minimum credible nuclear deterence becomes opeartional. Until then patience is the key.
