You have to care about the ideology I subscribe to, because I don't prefer to be spoken to at the same wavelength as one speaks to mindless peace lovers or folks who spend half of their time yapping about socialist mythology
I may not have picked the right news source, but the fact of the matter is that China does not consider AP itself as an integral part of India.
And when the Dalai Lama is so insistent on this one trip where he's allegedly looking to identify his successor, that's not improving anything for Indo-chinese tensions. I don't see it as any form of gratitude for a country that has hosted him for 50 years now. Nobody on earth has the balls to take him in and provide asylum, not even the US. If asylum's so hard earned, he needs to keep it shut.

Then do not assume the background of others and what kinds of people they associated with.... I also hate being talked to as somone who yaps about Christianity all day. Your Das Kapital reference was amusing - I must be the only commie-lover with an MBA.

I dont "get" the Dalai Lama or his philospohy of appointing successors who are born leaders etc. But then, I do not get any religion. My sympathies are more with the displaced people.
Oddly enough, I've recently been thinking about that "other" group of people the Chinese have occupied, the Uhigurs. It turns out, a group of them from Guantanimo bay have been relocated from the U.S. to my island of Palau, and now reside right across the street from me.
Here is a picture out of my office window. That house is where they stay.
I met some of them the other day. They seem nice enough, though they are starting to become media diva's here, and have thrown out female reporters who they thought weren't dressed appropriately.

Damm! If I were confined like that, I would ask for inappropriately-dressed female reporters to interview and "(g)oogle" me.
CDude..... (LOL) I suspect you mean more figuratively than literally!!!!
