Political Buddhism in Tibet
Monday, June 30th, 2008
Explore the rise of violent political activism among Buddhists in Tibet and elsewhere. Watch this special report on the plight and paradox of Tibetan Buddhists. They teach pacifism, but their demonstrations against the Chinese have sometimes become violent. How can they persuade the Chinese that they and the Dalai Lama are not a threat? Lucky Severson reports on Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly.
I’m afraid politics just does not make sense. It is always a big question mark to what people say and then the lengths they go through to prove it!
This is not “violence”, it is not “hooliganism”, not is it just a protest, this is a Freedom Fight against the barbaric oppression by an illegal occupier who is beyond any moral, ethical or ethical bounds.
Freedom fights are a just cause, a cause that is above censure on the basis of its means, for the ends is the termination of the crimes and oppression of the occupier, the Han Chinese.
