PrintChina Warns Australia About Dangerous Dalai Lama

The Chinese government issued a bitter denunciation of Australia's allowing the notorious terrorist, the Dalai Lama, to visit the country and meet with the Prime Minister. The Chinese claimed he was not a religious leader, but engaged in "splittest activities and destroying national unity."
China recently built a high speed railroad extension into Tibet and thousands of ethnic Chinese are moving into that region for jobs. Tibetan culture is under assault and religious leaders are harassed and prevented from carrying out their responsibilities. There is little doubt the Chinese government hopes over the coming twenty years that Tibet will be ethnically altered as non-Tibetans eventually become the majority.
The Chinese government is going to accomplish its goals, but still feels the need to attack the Dailai Lama as some sort of danger. On his visit to Australia, the Dalai Lama talked to a few political leaders who showed him some courtesy, but will not do anything that interferes with Australia's $52 billion trade exchange with China. Let's get real. Oh, the Dalai Lama did engage in some of his splittest activities while in Australia. He visited the zoo and had his picture taken with children.

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Who's this Mr. Dalai Lama fellow? Is he as bad as Osama Bin Laden? From the way the Chinese perceive things, apparently he is...hmm...maybe we should get Dept. Homeland Security to place this fellow on a "Do Not Fly" list...never can tell when he might choose to use is Buddhist philosophy to hijack a plane so as to convert people to Buddhism.
(p.s. Meant to be read as satirical).
