    The burning monk wasn’t protesting the war, he was merely protesting the oppression of the Buddhist, as he said. Ironically, rather than ending the oppression, it kicked it into high gear. His protest ultimately did nothing for the cause, but he was remembered fondly because of, well, the media. The picture taken by the AP journalist looked surreal, a great photograph. That was what immortalised Thich Quang Duc. He wasn’t the first to do such a thing, and wasn’t the last. But the picture made him into a legend. Which is the point. What’s the point of killing yourself for your cause, if it doesn’t have the media power to send a message? Lucky for Thich Quang Duc, the AP reporter brought his camera with him. Compare his selflessness to John Lennon and Yoko shallow bed protest, it really shows that the intention, sincerity and meaning completely pales to the spectacle. I would argue that Lennon and his mad wife did more to rouse up the public than Thich Quang Duc, but I have no statistics to back that up. In any case, it’s up to comedians to deliver these lessons succinctly.

    I know Ricky is trying to be funny, but the "Burning Buddhist" was indeed successful in the sense that it was reported on/photographed/filmed for display around the world. It signalled to those elsewhere that what someone found it *preferable* to be burned alive than to endure the hardship of the current ongoings in his country. It was a simple message, really, and it drew lots of attention.
