World View: The Dastardly Dalai Lama






By Blaine Fridley, Editor-in-Chief

When one hears the words "Dalai Lama", the immediate thought is, of course... "terrorist".

Umm...well, it is if you're Chinese president Hu Jintao and you're more insanely out-of-touch and batshit crazy than a puree of Amy Winehouse, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Andy Dick all mixed up in a bucket.

In a recent New York Times article, Jintao explains China's heavy-handed response to Tibetan protesters as a necessary measure to protect his country's people and, um, "sovereignty" that is endangered by the brutally thuggish Lama and his clan of terror operatives/monks, stating:

"No responsible government will sit idle for such crimes,
which encroach human rights, gravely disrupt social order and gravely jeopardize
the life and property security of the masses."

Obviously, Jintao couldn't be more right. Without question, China's famously zealous pursuit of human rights protection and respect for life is second only to its sterling environmental policies and strict quality control in the manufacturing of children's toys.

A simple Google search proves everything:

China+human rights violations

Dalai Lama+human rights violations

I mean, just look at what the Nobel committee had to say about this threat to China's national security upon awarding the Dalai Lama the 1989 Nobel Peace Prize:

"The Committee wants to emphasize the fact that the Dalai Lama in his struggle
for the liberation of Tibet consistently has opposed the use of violence. He
has
instead advocated peaceful solutions based upon tolerance and mutual
respect in
order to preserve the historical and cultural heritage of his
people."
On top of that, the Dalai Lama has gone on the record as rigidly demanding not Tibetan freedom, but just more autonomy for Tibet within China.

How do you compromise with a tyrant like that?

Clearly you don't understand the threats posed by the Dalai Lama and his whacked out view of respect for other people and their religious views. I mean if this kind of tolerance spins out of control the military-industrial complex will lose it's grip on world domination and thus clear the field for a McDonald's/Wal-Mart coalition. Let's face it, the only thing giving organic farmers a chance to provide their products in today's market place is the comforting iron grip of current Chinese rule of Tibet. I mean the dots are all there, just connect them people!

Fantastic article. However, the comedy of the actual article was surpassed by the irony of the directed Google Adsense links.

"Free Tibet T-Shirts"
Support Tibetans! Dozens of designs Tshirts, hoodies, sweatshirts more!

But the right side takes the cake
"Dalai Lama Ringtones
Send Complimentary Ringtones to your cell."

I'm sure the Dalai Lama is pleased someone is pushing a crazy ring tone scheme in his name.

I'm going to Free Tibet with the power of my ring tone. What is the ring tone? The ring tone is the sound of people dying for their beliefs somewhere where they don't have RZRS or CRZRS.

Free Tibet, repressive Chinese government! READ MY HOODIE FOR DETAILS
