Terrorists Targeting Dalai Lama

This is going to piss off Richard Gere!

Terror group's threat raises Dalai Lama alert

SECURITY surrounding the Dalai Lama has been tightened after reports of an attempt by the al-Qa'ida-linked terrorist organisation Lashkar-e-Toiba to assassinate the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader.
...
In a recent document, Osama bin Laden denounced "pagan Buddhism" as part of his general attack on anything not Islamic.

The assassination threat picked up by Indian authorities is thought to be based on bin Laden's denunciation and the extremist jihadi movement's hatred for anything and anyone that is not Muslim.
We're told by the defeatists, appeasers and terrorist enablers that terrorism is rooted in a hatred of the West, particulary the United States and our support of Israel. But here again, further proof that this is not so. Would anyone argue that the Dalai Lama is a tool of Western Imperialism and the Zionist conspiracy?

We've had less high profile examples of this insight before. The murders of Buddhist monks in Thailand being another case where no possible connection to the West or Israel is evident.

The left can delude itself all it wants. But the message from the terrorists is clear, it doesn't matter if the U.S. leaves Iraq, even the entire Middle East to it's fate. Islamic fascists see it as their mission from God to kill and destroy everything and everyone who does not share their views.
