Picture of the Day: Buddhist Monks Protest Iran War
A group of Buddhist monks affiliated with the Jogye Order, South Korea’s largest Buddhist sect, engages in a practice of bowing, in which participants prostrate themselves, near Jogye Temple in Seoul on March 17, 2026, as they move toward the U.S. Embassy to express their objection to the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran and U.S. President Donald Trump’s call for countries to dispatch warships to the Strait of Hormuz.

So they’re paid by CCP. Got it.
These monks are hypocrites themselves. Learn what the actual issue is rather than emotion with the word, “war.”
I will believe these monks are truly anti-war when they protest Korea’s War on Drugs and let me do a couple lines off a shaved head.
