So very many people are sucked into this idea that the Dalai Lama is god in all his mercy and wisdom. Note that Palast did not go out into the peasant-farm wasteland to see the high class living standards of the DL's enslaved masses still not able to come up to positive subsistence level. Palast, like most Americans, has no sense or knowledge of history. Look...before the Red Hats were jimmied into power with the help of the Ming Dynasty armies, the Yellow Hats were in power and revered by the Great Kahns: there's a statue in Lanzhou to the then head lama. There's no statue nowhere honoring the DL.
