Some serious stuff going on in Burma/Myanmar
 

It is like we are being dripped stuff in the news over here but it all adds up to sounding like something big kicking off. Today they are talking about tens of thousands of monks protesting against the government?

I think it's now time for the monks to speak up.

I think the monks are doing just that.

news coverage not reaching you guys? been like this for days but today its getting serious... hope its not a new 1988

It is all over the news here now...its former connections with the UK meant that would happen at some point. I have heard about deaths today.

Does Monk traffic convert? :winkwink:

Sorry - I couldn't resist

I wish I had the conviction...I am getting flashes of East Timor a few years back.

oh u mean Angelina Jolie is coming to town to add another kid to her arsenal?? :Oh crap

All stupid jokes aside..the pictures today of crowds being fired on by the military are horrible. I can't imagine what it must be like to be in their position...thank God (or whoever).
