Should the U.S. have bombed China when they went after the peaceful Tibetan people?

Perhaps not but we surely should not have given in to the Chinese government when they told us they would not let us have their markets until we stopped helping the Tibetan people. We dropped them cold, withdrawing all support and left them open to retaliation so that we could benefit financially. God crowns our good with brotherhood. Watch and see if we don't encounter ever less grace and support as our culture collapses under the weight of our greed and foolishness, lies and arrogance.
The Chinese Government is not just an unjust government, it is aligned with evil, imagining there is no spiritual reality, no authority but the ego and no power but what man can invoke against others. And we are, little by little, assuming the same stand and we will pay the same price as our circumstances become ever more harsh and intolerable.

Interesting question. China invaded Tibet in 1950. The Dalai Lama fled to India in 1959 as a Tibetan rebellion was quashed.
It's kind of like asking if the U.S. should have bombed the Soviet Union when Soviet tanks rolled into Czechoslovakia to quash the brief period of liberalizaton known as "The Prague Spring."

Bad idea. China doesn't even need a military capability to defeat us, all they need is to commandeer every airliner within their reach and throw 100 million bodies out the door over American cities. That's about 7% of their population (1/3 of ours) who they can't feed anyway.
Remember that one of the 7 classic blunders is to get involved in a land war in Asia.
And wars can't be won from the air alone. We will have to find a way to get along with China, just as they will have to find a way to get along with U.S. We kind of need each other.

U.S. has lots of business relations with China, so U.S. would never attack china even if they did something terrible. Also China has nukes and military might, so U.S. also risks big losses in addition to business loss. So U.S. would never do it. U.S. likes to go after small countries like Libya, Vietnam and Iraq in the name of humanitarian rights....but will just ignore it if bigger nations commit the same crime.

Big Business and the International Bankers would not permit that, besides China does not have any crude oil to spare.

Yes, according to the their reasoning for these bombings. In Libya's case we are talking about an armed rebellion in Tibet's case we are talking about innocent peace loving people. The U.S. doesn't get involved with bullies as big or bigger than themselves. They only attack the weaker nations.
