Indian news agencies report that an Islamic extremist group has made threats against the life of the Buddhist leader. In Nepal monks and lay people are praying for his safety as believers from all communities organise a joint prayer meeting. In India the authorities have beefed up security arrangements around the religious leader.Lumbini (AsiaNews) – Nepal’s three million Buddhists are alarmed over death threats made against the Dalai Lama, allegedly by Islamic extremist group Lashkar-e-Toiba. In Lumbini, Buddha’s birth place in southern Nepal, monks and lay people are praying for him.
A local monk, Bhante Jaydeo, told AsiaNews that the Dalai Lama “is an apostle of non violence and peace. In spite of being a victim of Chinese Communist violence he has never preached for a violent uprising in Tibet and has always called for reconciliation” with Beijing. “Here in town monks and the faithful have prepared special prayers for his safety.”
When an Indian paper reported the threat on April 1, police in Dharamsala (India) where the Dalai Lama lives in exile stepped up security arrangements.
Lashkar-e-Toiba is based in Pakistani-held Kashmir and is among the most powerful Islamic terrorist groups in South Asia. It is thought to be tied to al-Qaeda and it has been held responsible for many attacks in India.
For experts, the threat made against the Buddhist leader is probably connected to a recent statement attributed to Osama bin Laden against all religions other than Islam, including “pagan Buddhism.”
All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.

Mulsims Threaten The Life Of The Dalai Lama
If MLK were still alive, Muslims would be threatening him. If William Shakespeare were alive, Muslims would be threatening him. If
Muslims threaten to kill everyone who stands out from their horde, any Infidel who contributes anything to Infidel-dom.
So, the threats against the Dalai Lama are not surprising, but they are duly noted.
