We know that Hindus in India and Buddhists in Myanmar have attacked Muslims living there. Obviously there has been much violence by Muslims against Hindus, and Burmese Buddhists probably fear the same if their Muslim minority were to grow.
Given this, as well as the 14th Dalai Lama stating that "terrorism cannot be tackled by applying the principle of ahimsa because the minds of terrorists are closed," (source below), would it be wise for Buddhists to begin some sort of crusade/jihad against expanding Islamic terror groups such as ISIS or al-Qaeda? Would it be in line with the Middle Path?
Remember what the Taliban did to the Bamyan Buddhas; a rubber stamp on the annihilation of Afghan Buddhism by Islam.
