Also Not The Religion Of Peace

Thailand.
 
See also Burma, Sri Lanka, Mongolia, Japan, Tibet...

As has been pointed out here in the past, the Dalai Lama has never condemned either the invasion of Afghanistan or the invasion of Iraq.

In fact, an examination of the relevant texts shows that violence in general and war in particular are fundamental to Buddhism, admittedly a difficult thing to define. 

A rare balanced treatment of Buddhism and violence was broadcast in August last year.

The subject is addressed in great detail here.

It is also more than worth noting that the Sri Lankan war criminals were among those on whose behalf Liam Fox was treasonably running a parallel foreign policy out of his office and via his fake charity.
