What would probably help, as unfortunate as it would be, is to goad the Chinese into doing something truly horrible to Tibetan protesters, to the point where the world can't turn a blind eye.
That wouldn't matter. The world wouldn't not even care. Case in point, Darfur. Sudan is China's colony, and nobody wants to piss China off by intervening. What makes you think the world would do anything about Tibet?
DrCaleb, it's more about the economic influence that dictates what action will occur. South Africa is insignificant in the global economy. China plays a huge part in it.
