Is there a hidden hand behind the anti-China protesting of recent weeks, other than of course the much maligned ‘Dalai Clique?’ Indeed there is, according to Venezuela’s Foreign Ministry. According to a statement, in part published in Venezuela’s El Universal, “The manipulation of the media in regard to the protest of violent groups in the Tibet Autonomous Region is an ingredient of a formula from the psychological warfare laboratories of the United States, that is applied to permanently destabilize countries that refuse to meekly submit to the mandates of imperial rule.”

Caracas: Today, the National Government has denounced a campaign of “infamies” launched from the United States against China over the Tibet incident and said that it anticipates the success of the Olympic Games in Beijing.
The Foreign Ministry said in a statement that Venezuela will give its absolute support to realizing the event in Beijing, and will be sending its largest delegation ever to an Olympic Games.
“Consistent with the principle of brotherhood among peoples in their battle against all forms of imperialism, the government expresses its full and unreserved solidarity with the government and people of the People’s Republic of China as they confront the relentless and systematic campaign of infamies they have been victimized by during the past few weeks through the major mass media companies,” it said.
The “manipulation of the media in regard to the protest of violent groups in the Tibet Autonomous Region is an ingredient of a formula from the psychological warfare laboratories of the United States that is applied to permanently destabilize countries that refuse to meekly submit to the mandates of imperial rule,” it added.

Fantastic find! Hahahahahaha…
Soon the UN – that dare not speak of Islamic terrorists – will be sponsoring conferences on ways to combat BUDDHIST EXTREMIST GROUPS.
BUDDHIST TERRORISM! Yes, the plague of our time.
Of course, it is important to distinguish between Buddhism the religion – which is a religion of peace – and those who would pervert this religion for their criminal ends.
The Daliai CIique…led by the shadowy figure of the Dalai Lama…is orchestrating his campaign of terror from his hideout in the mountains of northern India.
Why the Indian government continues to turn a blind eye to this criminal terrorist operating with impunity on Indian soil is scandalous.
All freedom loving peoples dedicated to the cause of progress must united to combate this “the relentless and systematic campaign of infamies” that BUDDHIST TERRORISTS have conducted against the people of China.
'The Daliai CIique…led by the shadowy figure of the Dalai Lama…is orchestrating his campaign of terror from his hideout in the mountains of northern India.'
I hope this is satire?
If not, it's too ridiculous to take seriously.
The Dalai lama is the best freind China has in this confrontation, as he has steadfastly stood firm to treat this as a human rights issue, not a call to redraw China;s borders.
He reminds me of Martin Luther King, who was reviled by whites – until much more radical groups emerged and MLK began to seem rather acceptable by comparisnon.
Very funny, marlowe. The violent Buddhist Terrorists reminds me of an old sketch in a Weird Al Yankovic movie, basically a fake ad for “Ghandi 2! No more passive resistence. This time he's out to kick some butt! 'Give me a steak, medium rare', says Ghandi.” It's Rambo-izing Ghandi.
Anyway, to the piece, if people who oppose certain American foreign policy initiatives start consistently sounding like this guy, well, maybe everything the U.S. has ever done was right all along.
Everyone knows it's the Evil Imperialist Empire behind it all. (Right, Chris?)
So he thinks we whipped up the protesters in Europe as well?
Runasim said: “I hope this is satire?”
Yep, I was just joking, Runasim. I read William Kern's line about the “much maligned Dalai Clique” and had to run with it.
Pacatrue: “Weird Al Yankovic”? You are dating yourself. Ah, he was brilliant sometimes, no? I wonder whatever happened to him.
I enjoyed this post. It is always reassuring to know that paranoid lunatics run free everywhere in the world, and not just at my family holiday dinner table….
Ah, in-laws. Why God invented Scotch!
I am reassured that Marlowecan iis still funny.
I am alarmed that while browsing blogs and other opinion sources, it's often difficult to know whent it's okay to laugh. I've laughed heartily at the absurdity of some writings, only to discover that the author was dead serious.
I once complimented someone on a blog about his excellent sense of humor, only to assautled by such a barrage of outrage that I now have to screw up my courage to even check out the site,
