He’s still my boy. *fist bump*

So, the LA Times misquoted the Dali Lama and by
dropping the bit about the ‘countermeasures’ being
something positive and kind, twisted his words into
support for a mafia style execution.

Gee, there’s a shock. LA Times misquotes and twists
meaning.  That’s ‘dog bites man’ news if I’ve ever
heard it.

Why on earth is this site quoting the awful LA Times to
me in the first place?

I am not so in love with ‘logical’ human thought as you seem to be; seeing it perverted by misuse, forced warping, and false, ignoble bases as starting points.
Tibetan Buddhism is not all that representative of what the original historic Gotama taught. The Vajrayana sect fused with native shamanistic poly-deist Bon religion of Tibetan aboriginals. It is a religion. However, the form of mindfulness, morality and insight that Gotama taught had NO gods, no afterlife, and no rules (supposedly) handed down from heaven: it is only a way of living in this mortal life and this constant turmoil. Zen, or Vipassana, or Secular Buddhism are the closest current versions of what Gotama taught.
My point is that one should not throw buddhism bath water out with the Dalai Lama baby.

“countermeasures” vs. “compassion”?  Right.

Is the U.S. Navy leadership prepared for more real application of its
“Tomahawk Cruise,” with maximum load, instead of minimum, on targets in
the U.S. ?
Or, does “max load” require application of the USAF “Cruise, ” dropped
from the air, instead of fired from under-water?
Are all “Admirals” comparable to the insult to Buddhism, the C.I.A.
pawn, the Dalai Lama, who practices “CIAddhism” as directed by his
financiers?  Is feigned holiness more holy than human altruism?  How is
bowing and placing the hands together more holy than shovelling dirt
into a grave?  Which is older, logical human thought, or Buddhism?

The U.S. Navy leadership has reached a genuinely degenerated state of
existence, when a S.E.A.L. team is ordered into Pakistan to murder a
family misrepresented as Osama bin Laden clan, falsely set up by C.I.A.
“mercenaries”.  The U.S.Navy leadership was already bad enough,
allegedly firing a Tomahawk into the pentagon in order to set up the
murder of a patriotic general who would not kiss-ass for his treasonist
“colleagues.”  Apparently, >too many< general officers in all branches
of the U.S.Military, have become the property of the NAZI element of
the C.I.A., which rules- not only, but especially- media coverage.

CHEERS to the non- C.I.A. assets!  Time to consort & take action ?

” Among the company you list, he stands out as someone who really does practice compassion.”

Depends on how you define “compassion.”
Anyway you define it, it rules out human altruism and general honesty.

This C.I.A. pawn practices whatever his hirelings tell him to practice.

I understand that you scoff at a religious leader talking about Realpolitik in Asia, but the Dalai Lama is infinitely more believable, consistent and logical (most of the time) than the other religious leaders you are waiting to hear from. Among the company you list, he stands out as someone who really does practice compassion. But if moral considerations are totally out of place in regards to war, revenge, and “justice” then on what can we base our civilization (besides right makes right)?

Now that we have heard from the Dalai Lama, all we need are the votes of the Pope, Pat Robertson, the ghost of Jerry Falwell, and Bachmann’s psychiatrist to see if we get a consensus on the bin Laden assassination, and whether we did the ‘right thing’.
