<incom> online petition to stand with the burmese people

[Geert Lovink]

> Hi, have you heard about the crisis in Burma?
>
>  Burma is ruled by one of the worst military dictatorships in the 
> world. This week Buddhist monks and nuns began marching and chanting 
> prayers to call for democracy. The protests spread and hundreds of 
> thousands of Burmese people joined in -- they've been brutally 
> attacked by the military regime, but still the protests are spreading.
>
>  I just signed a petition calling on Burma's powerful ally China and 
> the UN security council to step in and pressure Burma's rulers to stop 
> the killing. The petition has exploded to over 200,000 signatures in a 
> few days and is being advertised in newspapers around the world, 
> delivered to the UN secretary general, and broadcast to the Burmese 
> people by radio. We're trying to get to 1 million signatures this 
> week, please sign below and tell everyone!
