Update in Myanmar

From the Washington Post, an update on Myanmar since the Military Junta started their campagn against the protesting monks.

I find it quite surprising the level of violence the government used against the monks in such a heavily Buddhist country. The most interesting (and disturbing) quote in the article was said by a five year old boy:
I don’t want to become a soldier. If I have to kill a monk, the worst thing will happen to me in my next life.
