What kind of buddhist is this Dalai Lama ? His sect of supposed Buddhist Lamas and their "talk the talk" moralizing about compassion, charity, and harmony is just talk..... all talk.... nothing but talk. "Snake oil pitch" is what it is.
When it comes time to "walking the walk," or "doing the do," the Dalai Lama and his sect of Buddhists are nowhere to be seen.
While lives remain to be saved after 5 days of rescue work in progress in Sichuan, and the 50,000 dead victims (and rising) from the Earthquake rubble of the 512 Sichuan Earthquake remain to be extricated, and their families mourn, massive outpouring of charity and compassion have been mobilized all throughout the Buddhist world by true men and women of Buddhist faith.
Their noble efforts outshine the "shit-disturbing" Dalai Lama and his Dharamsala "b.s." followers.
Notable in the immediate rescue and relief efforts is the Tzu Chi Buddihist Foundation and their selfless charitable work in mobilizing their network of Buddhist charitable workers around the world to respond to the disasters in Sichuan, Myanmar, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Missouri. Tsu Chi started in Taiwan and has been one of the first Buddhist charities which responded to the natural disasters not just in Sichuan, but in Myanmar, in Katrina-New Orleans, Oklahoma-Missouri-Tennessee cyclone aid and relief.
I am truly awed by the noble work of the Tsu Chi Buddhist followers who are selflessly devoting themselves in charitable relief work unconditionally for all who suffer, including those victims in Sichuan and Myanmar.

Japan's Soka Gakai's Nichren Buddhists is anothe group with 10 million buddhists who have responded with their charitable donations and relief work to the Sichuan Earthquake relief; amazing noble gesture:

Guess where's the "Shit-Disturbing" Dalai Lama is at this time? He is in Germany on another "PR" campaign to China bash, China demonize and to capitalize on his celebrity status in the WEST. To think that in Sichuan province, there are still many ethnic Tibetans now buried in some of the rubbles of the disastrous earthquake which struck Sichuan, with its various ethnic minorities, including many of China's 55 ethnic minorities settled in some parts in Sichuan devastated by the earthquake, including, I am sure, many ethnic Tibetans in those rubble.
What kind of buddhists are these Tibetan Lamas? Read up on the Shit-Disturbing Dalai Lama in Germany:

Buddhists are supposed to be about Compassion. Peace. Charity. Living it. Doing it. Not just hyping it up. Talking about it. Your Holliness.
The WEST may worship the Dalai Lama as the living reincarnate of a Living Buddha. To me, he is nothing but an opportunist and worse, a predator. A wolf in monk's robe, as Chinese authorities correctly describes him.
Now is not the time to bash China and the Chinese people and go on a road trip to pitch your "China bashing" snake oil, Dolly ! What kind of buddhist are you, pray tell ?
