Why won’t the Dalai Lama speak out against the War in Iraq?
Why won't the Dalai Lama condemn the war in Iraq?
The war in Iraq had no popular mandate from any nation and no legal mandate from the international community. Since the invasion there have been several hundred thousand civilian casualities and nearly 5,000 Coalition soldiers have died. If ever there was a war that could be definitively condemned it is this one. But the Dalai Lama won't condemn this war. He says it's too early to tell.
As Colman McCarthy Said: The Dalai Lama 'one more religious leader who is a pacifist between wars, akin to being a vegetarian between meals'.
