Who was involved in the Mao Ze-Dong genocide of Tibet?
It is widely acknowledged, even by China, that Tibetans possess a distinct cultural identity. To most of the people genocide in Tibet by China is disgusting. It is to me. Today there is still genocide going on in Tibet. Thousands of monks and other Tibetans are being held captive and tortured. Also millions of Chinese are moving into Tibet, making the Tibetans a minority in their own country. In 1950, one year after Mao Zedong took control of China, Chinese forces invaded Tibet. The Cultural Revolution in China started soon after millions across China and Tibet were killed. Mao Zedong like Hitler and Stalin was an extremist Darwinian and the Survival of the Fittest was incorporated in those atheist governments.

What does Tsampa taste like in Tibet?
I had Tsampa once in a Tibetan Village accompanied by two monks and a lama who went there to conduct a ceremony for the village. So what I had was the genuine article. I had it in two forms. With tea it was fairly thick liquid and palatable. The taste was not very strong. But later I was given it in its thick sticky paste form with no added tea. This tasted like eating mud. Thick cloying mud that made it impossible to swallow quickly. As I was in the village chief's house at the time ( an honour ) I had no choice but to eat what I was given. But I nearly threw up and it was only politeness that prevented me from doing so. Definitely an aquired taste but I will not be serving it up to my dinner guests in this lifetime.

Unfortunately, it's very unlikely to happen in the near future. The Chinese invaded in 1950 and they have an annoying tendency to stand their ground. The only realistic way I can see Tibet's freedom occurring is if the international community puts pressure on China or even intervenes militarily. The Americans or British would veto it one way or another.

Why is Tibet controlled by china?
Tibet has been an inalienable part of Chinese territory since the 13th century. The emperor of the Yuan Dynasty created the position "Dalai Lama" (which means Ocean Teacher) to consolidate religious and political authority in Tibet. The Dalai Lama, under Chinese suzerainty, ruled Tibet for the next several hundred years. When China became a People's Republic, the Dalai Lama's theocratic regime was abolished, and Tibet became an autonomous region.
There's no such thing as "a" Tibet. Tibet is a country.
Tibet is a plateu region in Asia, the highest region on earth. Sometimes it's even referred to as the "roof of the world". Also, it's a very religious country. Religion is extremely important to the Tibetans and has a strong influence over the country and its people's lives. In fact, a lot of Tibetan art depicts Buddha or other visions of religious significance. The "Dalai Lama" is a well-known term for a lineage of religious rulers.
For a long while, however, China has owned Tibet, claiming that Tibet was originally a part of China. It was their excuse for invasion. This is a very controversial issue, especially considering recent archaelogical evidence that hints otherwise, but for the time being Tibet stays under China's rule
======================
Tibet is NOT a country.
To be a country, it has to be accepted by other countries as being so. Currently NO countries in the world recognize Tibet as a country.
In fact, official maps from the West in the last few hundred years all show Tibet as part of China
In other words, Tibet has been part of China for at least a few hundred years. This would therefore invalidate the claim that China invaded Tibet in 1950.
There is one example of the map of China produced by the US government in 1944 at time index 3:04 from the video clip in the related links section below this answer.
