The Dalai Lama thinks there are now “too many refugees in Europe”

I pulled this from a no name website to post a point, the Dalai Lama has been silenced by the EU socialist controlled media. There is no such thing as Free Speech in the EU and the Dali Lama speech has been banned by the EU leaders, twitter, facebook, microsoft, google etc.

And he who controls the internet will soon control the world and all it's sheeple.







The Dalai Lama thinks there are now “too many refugees in Europe”

The Dalai Lama has weighed in on the refugee crisis, again, but with a far more skeptical tone.
The spiritual leader of the Buddhist faith told the German press (link in German) that there are “too many refugees in Europe,” warning that “Europe, and for example, Germany, cannot become an Arab country. Germany is Germany. There are so many that it becomes difficult.”
The Dalai Lama suggests that refugees can only be hosted in Europe on a temporary basis. “The goal should be to return them and help them to rebuild their own countries,” he explains.

He has previously called on world leaders to put interests of humanity first and praised both Austria’s and Germany’s response to the refugee crisis, the latter taking in more refugees in 2015 (around one million) than the US has in the past 10 years.

I like it...any other time and "they" hang on his every word of wisdom.

Speak against the Arabs, and all of a sudden, he is wrong and must be kept quiet.

Well there you have it.

Question

I don't see how an interview published in a German newspaper is evidence of his Holiness being censured.

I think the comment about "too many refugees" is being offered out of context. The Google translation of his statement in the interview <<LINK>> follows.
Quote:
[Q.]That is, you are after all these years still a fugitive. How do you feel about the current refugee crisis in Europe?

[Answer] If we look into the face of each individual refugee, especially the children and women, we feel their suffering. A person that is doing a little better, has a responsibility to help them. On the other hand, there are now too many. Europe, for example, Germany, can be no Arab country. Germany is Germany. (Laughs) There are so many that it is difficult in practice. Also seen morally I find that these refugees should be only a temporary basis. The goal should be to return and help rebuild their own countries.

[Q.] In Europe there is an increasingly Islamophobic sentiment. How do you rate it?

[Answer]There are Muslim individuals and small groups who kill each other in their own countries. Shiites, Sunnis. They do not represent the entire Islam and all Muslims. Love is the core message, even in Islam in every religion. Malicious people there are among the Buddhists , Christians, Jews and Hindus. Only due to some sad events emanating from a small number of Muslims, we should not condemn the entire Muslim world.
By my reading, the Dalai Lama is saying that accepting refugees is only a temporary solution to a larger issue. He's not offering a blanket condemnation of Muslims.

IRT to the allegation that the EU is shutting him out, his website has schedule posted here <<LINK2>>. He's going to be making appearances in western Europe in September and October.

I'm not going to argue with you Sig, I've read many sources that say the same thing and did you NOT read what I said at the beginning of my post?

"I pulled this from a no name website to post a point"

Many sources. He's being actively censured.
