We as Muslims would always welcome the Dalai Lama to embrace Islam and have Muslim monks alongside us to be treated as brothers as commanded by our faith.

The article actually says it was "a question about the rise of violent religious fundamentalism". We have no idea if that question was purely, or partially, in the specific context of Islam or not.

That's good... considering all the attacks on Islam, the more people that "stick up" for it the better.
