In Burma, an unknown number of people were killed by soldiers yesterday, including a Japanese photographer who continued to take pictures as he died. Thousands of monks and ordinary citizens are in detention. Today, there are reports of people defying and confronting the soldiers, and also reports that some of the troops are refusing to obey orders. The split in the military may go all the way up to the top two leaders. The government shut down the internet yesterday, but news is still making its way out of the country. Cllck here (down here, on the caption) for the latest news I can find. I have been to Burma, it is a real place, and they are beautiful but terribly oppressed people!
