The revolution…

by Shefaly on September 27, 2007

is being televised.

It is also being blogged about.

A primer on why, if one has dictatorial ambitions, one needs to be much, much smarter than the people one wishes to rule; and to continue to remain a dictator, have powerful friends on the security council.

I doubt the monks being shot down every day see the humour in this…

India is astonishingly sheepish and the man they sent was the Petroleum Minister. How much more blatant can a sovereign nation get about its interests?

China of course keeps quiet because this reminds them of Tiananmen Square and before the 2008 games they would rather peopel forgot about the whole episode.

It is a shame!
