The Dalai Lama and Tibetans were hardly nonviolent. With CIA help, they fought the ChiComs for over a decade (Tibetans were trained in the Colorado Rockies). Nixon cut off support in 1969 but some Tibetan contras continued to fight until the mid 1970s.

...some Tibetan contras continued to fight until the mid 1970s.I am informed by some who know that the Khampas in Eastern Tibet are still resisting. Outside help is close to nonexistent but people and things still manage to cross the borders.
