Tibetan themselves are devided ,as for the attitude to Han-Chinese.
1, Most Tibetan citizens in Lhasa ddn’t support the riot at all. Instead,they helped lots of hurt Han-Chinese. reason? very simple, Tibetan citizens benefit from the modernization of Tibet most. They don’t want such modernization to be stopped by the riot or any unstablity.

2,The Main participants in the riot were the young peasants in rural area. Why? because those young tibetan peasants benefits much less from modernization than those Tibetan citizens,due to the lonely location and less education.
Many rural Tibetan even can’t speak Mandarin,let alone read/write Chinese. In CHina, those who can’t speak Mandarin can’t find any decent jobs in cities.
But,the less education of Tibetan is not the fault of CHinese government .in fact ,Chinese government provides free education and speical subsidy to Tibetan students.But Government’s help doesn’t always work. As we see in USA ,governmental helps doesn’t help black and aboriginal Indians out of less educaiton either.

3,the leaders of the riot are the monks
why?
very simple....The monk class in Tibet feel their posion seriously thretened by the modernizaton of Tibetan.
Monk’s class still rules the mentality of lot of less-education tibetan,espeically those rural Tibetan.
For examle,many ill tibetan eat the dejecta of monks,because they believes the dejecta of monks can cure their diseases.

If Tibet is part of China, how did all of these people who can’t speak Chinese end up there?

Yes it is simple. 1. They greatly fear the Chinese police and army. 2. Tibetans are very compassionate as it has been a way of life for them, throughout society, for centuries.

The Main participants in the riot were the young peasants in rural area. Why? because those young tibetan peasants benefits much less from modernization than those Tibetan citizens,due to the lonely location and less education.

What were very poor rural kids doing in the city then? If they hang out in the city then they are not rural kids.

the leaders of the riot are the monks

That is false. Every report shows that the monks were protesting peacefully until others started the riots. As I showed you in a previous link the ones who started the riots were Han Chinese policemen disguised as ethnic Tibetans.

90% of the businesses in Lhasa are owned by Han Chinese so it is not only rural peasant Tibetans who are being left out.
