The West was ok with Tibet being a part of China until 1949 for some ~weird reason~, and Mao loving let the Dalai Lama and the rest of the aristocracy stay in power for years until they started talking about maybe doing some land reforms to help the poo poo dirt poor peasants and the tibetan ruling class started a guerrilla war with CIA weapons and training in response.

The Qing took over Tibet from the mongols in the early 1700s, put the Dalai Lama in charge and made up a new way of succession that ensured the Lama would continue to rule Tibet as an autonomous protectorate of the Qing. Once the Qing collapsed Tibet declared itself to be independent while the new Chinese government said Tibet was still a Chinese protectorate and no one officially recognized Tibet as an independent state even if they de facto ran the country. The US held the position that China held sovereignty over Tibet until they mysteriously started to recognize Tibet as independent after 1949, for reasons unknown, what a mystery this is :thunk:

All the original leadership of the Taliban had been part of the mujahideen but the group itself was formed after the government collapsed in 92 and all the different factions started fighting each other and robbing everything they could. The Pakistani intelligence service was very gung-ho about supporting the Taliban at first.
