Shame, or cowardice . . . . people are choosing against the cyberslavery put upon them in test case new deliberate designs of "repression-cities", as much a test for the world as was the nazi slave labour deathcamps - or peenemunde. Could global institutions have had pride in their actions if the retort to, say, the attempts at a breakout in Sobibor have limits of stopping the passports or overseas credit of the Auschwitz troops? A town a week is destroyed as we "wait."
Perhaps other flags need hiding too.
Or we could force people to rethink token gestures.
Yes, the USA climate talks is a muggers meeting discussing voluntary limits to muggings, yes kids should all have the safety to sleep without getting abducted . . . . but if we let this hi-tech repression experiment in Burma suceed, then as sure as the poll tax was tested on the scottish then put upon all the british people, in this little world of 2007, if we let "tax- haven" based corporations use the current leadership of Burma as puppets for looting by proxy, we cheapen all the people of the world.
Despite the threats, people have AGAIN come out on the streets - from sun-up to sunset. A curfew, knocks in the night, people "disappear". . . . what do YOU do.
Thes people came out AGAIN - MORE of them. MOMENTS. If you leave it later, the tools of repression are strengthened. Its 1938, in european terms. Or later. 1941 in USA terms. GET REAL. The moments that are about to pass you by are YOUR times to get stood up too.
Provocations, set-ups, we expect all this . . . . but the legitimacy of the democratic forces that couild enter talks is more certain compared to the iraqi situation - what are the "publicity groups" that pushed for intervention THERE saying.
Four people shot outside a hotel as I type.
But it is YOUR FUTURE TOO.
". . . . then they came for me."
NIEMOLLER quote. . . . look it up.
pressure>INQUIRIES>WATCHING THE PRIORITISATION OF PAPERS, OF BROADCASTS.PRESSURE. SUPPORT.SEE THE GOOD IN THE CHOICE OF THIS MOMENT TO PUSH IN THAT "ONCE IN TWENTY YEARS" MOMENT _ BUT ALSO PERHAPS A LAST MOMENT AS "REPRESSION/CYBERSLAVE- LABOUR TECH SHUTS OFF FUTURES - as much to the disasters of "dystupia" as "yes-men-ism" side effects destroy sensible, safe options, to poison the world. . . . but
200 monks "under arrest" - but there are a HECK of a lot more ! ! ! !
It strengthens my pride in all peoples possible strength, REAL strength, to see these people rush back to the streets, again, again, again, again . . . .
The colours drain from ALL flags that forget their GOOD meaning each HOUR that too little is done to match such BIG souls of "ordinary" people, that REMEMBER WHAT SPIRIT IS
. . . . THAT REMEMBER JUSTICE
. . . . . . . . THAT REMEMBER "2=2=4"
. . . . . . . . THAT BOUNCEBACK WITH "HAPPY BUDDHA" GRINS, WITH PRIDE, WITH MUTUAL RESPECT, WITH THAT IRREPRESSIBLE TUNE that IS picked up on the other side of the world to bounce back again
address of uk burmese embassy: underneath.
But perhaps pressure YOUR "news", YOUR "representation", YOUR sense to see moments to "get up". . . . YOUR irrepressible tunes.
strength when YOU need it -
remember to grin too. . . .
picking up those bouncing tunes over the ether . . . .

Peenemunde was the extreme of these labourcamp experiments, where people were worked to drop dead on the job, with almost automatic movements, almost soul-destroyed.
The electricity wiring around the camps, underwiring too, some said, the malnourishment too, as much as the undernourishment, the psychological "grind", all were a sort of big experiment in control. This is 60 years later, purpose-designing the new main "administration" big city IS SUSPICIOUS - the ENTIRE of the dictatorships functionaries, support people etc have shifted to that new site. . . . oil, gas, hotels for cheap holidays in other peoples misery. . . . with the test-lab for YOUR future too?
Couldnt happen here?
A tale from a few years back. Its europe. Its a train - crowded, no seats - father talks to son . . . . for some reason, the son doesnt forget these words.
". . . . naah, son. They aint going to murder us - this is the TWENTIETH century!"
When do YOU wake up.
Are YOU on those tracks, in those "ruts".
Sometimes the ACTUAL facts DO sound overdramatic. Routine is ALWAYS there as a "valium". . . . we sedate ourselves. . . . but thats why "the news" - despite the things it doesnt talk about, or the skewed priorities. . . .
. . . . its worth seeing how much "your" news is doing its job.
Or subject to distortions, spin, etc.
THEN ITS WORTH LOOKING AT THE RECORD OF "PUBLICISTS", OR PAST BIG MISTAKES. Wmd in iraq, niger uranium, where did those tales come from?
The things people could do about Burma, these September 2007 Days, are the things that might strengthen all of us for ALL our futures in ways that the "International" Brigades of the 1930s strengthened a few for what was to come . . . . but this time, it is those of ALL politics or religion that strengthen. It is a "testcase".Lets stop the trains, this time.
more people coming out to support. . . .all types
monks set time limit - talk democracy or we escalate tomorrow

this is the speed of timing
strategy thought out. . . .
global community - establishment, religions, politics, secular spokespeople, celebrities etc - comprehend this . . . . a phase, to the next set of moments
This IS more like a "breakout" - the slow steps of campaigns in the 1940s in India were without current-technology.
WHAT MIGHT THE "HEROES" OF INDIA OR CHINA SAY TO THEIR PRESENT LEADERS? Do you think Mao or the Mahatma might have acquiesced to letting people down, or Lincoln or FDR in the USA? Might the founders of other great religions have said to remain frozen in the spotlight of this moment - or might they have seen the need for effort ABOVE the usual "statements" at this "30 YEAR moment" - IN RECOGNITION - SHOULDER TO SHOULDER. For all free thought,
P R E S S U R E
WE ARE WINNING ....look at the amount of "doomgloom- NLP-backspin" in the news - but people KEEP coming out.
but its essential that people worldwide comprehend the necessary "pace" of these things - we surprise ourselves too - but things teach us all the time _ _ _ _ !!!!
