Disappeared News

In solidarity with the people of Burma, many bloggers will put up only a single post today. We want to set a sign for freedom and show our sympathy for these people who are fighting their cruel regime without weapons.

But blogging is not enough. Here is a list of addresses and phone numbers that you may use to contact either the Chinese embassy or a nearby consulate. Tell them that you support a boycott of the 2008 Olympics unless China assists in the ending of the genocide in Burma. Tell them that the murderous military junta should be removed and the elected leaders of Burma allowed to form a government.
