Tell that to his fans who oppress Muslims or have artists arrested for depicting him with headphones on.

Buddha didn't exist anymore than Jesus. A man or group of men started that movement sure, otherwise Buddhism would not exist. But it is not a cure for violence anymore than belief in Jesus or Allah stop people from being cruel to other humans.

This is simply a romantic view of the east by those whom live in the west. Asian Buddhist majority countries have had their conflicts and have oppressed each other too. 

Religions are clubs, not cures. Our species behaviors are in our evolution, not in the clubs we claim to belong to. Asian countries have hospitals and prisons too. Some are more open than others too.
