China seized Tibet by force, and holds it by force. There isn’t any way around that.

The Dalai Lama has never supported any kind of militant opposition to Chinese rule, and still does not. The only threat he poses to them is as a reminder of a Tibetan culture that has not yet been entirely extinguished.

And for them, that is enough to make him their greatest enemy.

The Dalai Lama is no more a “threat” to China ... than Ghandi was a “threat” to England.
