Lighten up, it's a commercial. No one is "exploiting a suffering people" with a commercial. If anything, it will bring people's attention back to Tibet. Celebrities who promote their causes often lose interest after the cameras go away, so any reminder of them does more good than harm for them.
I enjoyed the Doritos commercial with the pug who flattened the guy teasing him with a chip with the door.
The finger-licker was disturbing though.
Of course, the Vader kid was one of our favorites too.
