As most everyone knows, there have been Pro - Democracy rallies going on in the country of Myanmar. Well, recently the government of Myanmar has been shutting off Internet access and confiscating cell phones in an attempt to cut off the flow of reports about the rallies. But, there is always an work - around. Nations such an the United States and Britain have been monitoring these rallies with satellites and there are also very few reports coming from the country itself via people with satellite Internet. I do not have an link to the full story but i have an link to an article on Techdirt: http://techdirt.com/articles/20070928/190544.shtml
I also have an link to an Discovery News article: http://dsc.discovery.com/news/2007/09/28/myanmar_hum.html?category=human&guid=20070928140030&dcitc=w19-502-ak-0000

If the truth ever comes out, which in the short term is doubtful, I think the headlines will shift from rallies in Myanmar to massacre in Myanmar.

Thats sad that they are throwing the bodies of dead people into the jungle. I believe the president should send somthing over there to stop this madness. An battle fleet, an army, whatever just do somthing!

PS: i like big ships with big guns so thats where battle fleet came from. Also, an battle fleet is made up of 1 Aircraft Carrier, 4 Cruisers, 4 Frigates, and 1 of the 4 battleships in reserve.
