Do you have to go with a tour, or can you travel on your own?
Based on all of the Chinese characters in your signature, I'm guessing that you are of Chinese descent. If so, I think you have a pretty good chance of bypassing the Tibet permit charade. If you (or anyone else) desires, send me a PM and I will put you in touch with my ABC friend that went there sans permit. But, that might not be necessary; just have an actual Chinese citizen buy your tickets and you should be fine.

Edited to correct typo that has already been quoted.
