   Either you want to be a refugee or you want to falsely claim that you   
   need a place to live in peace and to exercise your religious freedom   
   and then, once you've obtained your refugee status, you abuse it and   
   use your host country as a base to wage a political campaign designed   
   to harm or extract concessions from your host country's neighbor YY.   
   You stage protests and sabotage border security with your host   
   country's neighbor YY with whom your host has a friendly and peaceful   
   relation. Or you sneak back and forth across the border on behalf of   
   your political campaign, passing information deemed to be country YY's   
   state secrets, and perhaps even wage a guerrilla warfare against YY.   
      
   You create incidents that generally lead to a need for more security   
   measures and greater tension within your host's neighbor YY. And when   
   security is heightened, country XXX that has appointed itself as the   
   world's policeman, that has a bad design for your host's neighbor YY,   
   and that regularly chalks up a list of so-called "human rights   
   violations" against YY then uses what you have done on the ground   
   (that has caused your host's neighbor YY to necessarily increase   
   police presence in its own country in order to maintain stability and   
   security) to start invoking the new statistics, bandying them around,   
   and saying   
      
    "ah ha! Monster country YY is getting more monsterous!"   
      
   even though you have been instrumental in causing a monster to become   
   more monsterous yourself.   
      
   Now, don't you cry like a sissy and whine!   
      
   You have been acting like a coward, you realize?   
      
   You must now either spine it up and be a man. You either fight as a   
   guerrilla or be a peaceful monk like the Old Buddha taught you since   
   antiquity and live peacefully in the refugee camp your host country   
   has so kindly set up for you out of compassion. Don't you dare to   
   abuse their compassion again!   
      
   You must make a choice and you must make it now!

   P.S.: Nepal is one of the poorest countries in the world, a country   
   that has been plagued by decades of strife and has been struggling to   
   pull itself out of the Dark Ages. The Nepalese people have enough   
   problems of their own to appreciate a sleazy campaign waged by foreign   
   refugees on their soil. These refugees are abusing the Nepalese   
   people's compassion when they themselves are led by a sleazy monk who   
   always recites the compassion word. These refugees should have some   
   compassion for their host because the Nepalese people widely consider   
   their relationship with the Chinese people as indispensable for   
   helping them move forward and become self-empowered.   
      
   P.P.S.: In view of the report:   
      
    >The Dalai Lama and members of the Tibetan government-in-exile in   
    >Dharamsala (India) visited the country several times, which is home   
    >to more than 20 thousand refugees. After the abolition of the

    >formations Nepal has changed course, abandoning its historic ally   
    >India and tying close relations with China.   
      
   We can make at least the following two observations:   
      
   First, that Da Lama visiting Nepal several times does not mean squat   
   because he is not holy as far as many Nepalese are concerned. And any   
   lingering feeling of holiness for such a fallible and fallen human   
   being is a sign that calls for the need of an education for the person   
   who harbors such a feeling. On the other hand, if Da Lama's visits   
   are not meant to imply his holiness, then we can only conclude that he   
   was visiting as a political figure. Politics is typically not allowed   
   for refugees in any country as I explained above.   
      
   Secondly, the historic alliance with India obviously hasn't worked out   
   very well in view of the struggle it has been waging to try to free   
   itself from abject poverty and internal strife.
