Its not a lot to ask for – is it?

From the BBC

Alan, thanks for this. Some of the footage, taken at great personal risk with mobiles and other cameras, and then smuggled out for people like us around the world to see, is truly moving, courageous, and incredibly powerful. We have been tracking the pictures over at http://mobileactive.org/ and it seems that a lot of it is still coming out via mobile though there are some reports that the mobile carriers are now completely shut down and Internet bandwidth throttled.

There is an incredibly beautiful and poignant picture at http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_pictures/7013852.stm that shows a hand-made sign: May all beings always well and happy, may they be free from danger and enmity, may they live peacefully.

The thoughts and prayers and most heartfelt wishes for a free and democratic Burma from the community at Mobileactive.org are with the monks and protesters.

And of course we have the usual bullshit going on in the UN. Colin Powell stood before all to provide fabricated evidence with which to beat the drums of war for Iraq. Nice one Colin. I hear you still have some traces of credibility left intact.

Here we have the evidence, and like Kosovo or Darfur who is actually going to pull their finger out and DO something about it.
