First report from HH, from Hong Kong, re Dalai Clique

Spoke to Tashi Wangdi, His Holiness's Representative to the America, in Seattle with HH. We laughed over how busy he was as a member of the Dalai Clique controlling the world media and the governments of France, Britain, the US and several other states (Germany), to direct the wrecker mentality sweeping the West...

SEATTLE: Dalai Lama, Tibet's exiled spiritual leader, said on Sunday he would resign if violence in his homeland spreads out of control.

"If violence becomes out of control then my only option is to resign," he said at a news conference. "If the majority of people commit violence, then I resign."

Dalai Lama draws 50,000 to Seattle stadium

By Laura Myers, Reuters

SEATTLE -- Tens of thousands of people packed a Seattle sports stadium on Saturday to hear the Dalai Lama, Tibet's exiled spiritual leader, call for nonviolence and to make the 21st century a "century of dialogue."

Drums played, American Indian chiefs wearing feathered head-dresses danced and organizers said about 51,000 people -- many of them families -- listened under sunny skies to the Dalai Lama speak about compassion....

China slams Dalai Lama

BEIJING: Beijing yesterday denounced the Dalai Lama as "anti-human rights", and top US politician Nancy Pelosi as "the least popular person in the nation" for her stance on Tibet. The belligerent commentaries by the official Xinhua news agency came the day after Beijing announced the arrest of nine Buddhist monks for bombing a government building in Tibet.

China's state media also warned that simmering unrest in Tibet and a resulting security clampdown looked set to hit the Himalayan region's nascent tourist boom this summer.

China's ambassador to Britain said yesterday the protests against the Olympic torch relay illustrated a growing gulf in understanding between China and the West.

In Seattle Dalai Lama said yesterday he would resign as leader of Tibet's exiled government if violence in his homeland spreads out of control.

Dalai Lama first visit to the United States since the recent Chinese crackdown on dissent in Tibet, he carefully avoided commenting on the events in his homeland, telling an adoring audience of about 50,000 people gathered at a stadium in Seattle that he is simply one man with a few empty words.

The Chinese government has accused the Dalai Lama of orchestrating last month's riots in the Tibetan capital of Lhasa and unrest that followed in other ethnic Tibetan areas, as part of a bid for independence and to ruin the upcoming Olympic Games in Beijin
