Caption to a photo of Dalai Lama today:

Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama speaks to the media in Dharmsala,
India, Tuesday, March 18, 2008. The Dalai Lama threatened Tuesday to step
down as leader of Tibet's government in exile if violence committed by
Tibetans in his homeland spirals out of control.
 
Next to this photo is an article dated Beijing, where China ccuses HHDL of
the whole fracas:
 
"There is ample fact - and we also have plenty of evidence - proving that
this incident was organized, premeditated, masterminded and incited by the
Dalai clique," Wen told reporters at his annual news conference at the end
of China's national legislative session."  etc
 
I think HHDL has been wanting to retire. This might be his chance. The
Chinese will crow victory, but not everyone else will echo them.
