"In Burma's second city, Mandalay, the streets are full of bicycles at rush hour as men and women head to their places of work and study.

Behind closed doors, in the security of their homes and among those they can trust, people hand out pictures of Ms Suu Kyi.

In a country where a person could be arrested an sent to prison for giving another person a drink of water, she is as inspiring to the populace as Joan of Arc was to the French people, I hope this military government realizes this.

These Generals are the worlds pits. Why they have not been charged by ithe International Court of Justice and the European Court of Human Rights for the criminals they are?.Their actions in continuing to defy world public opinion is a sure sign of the paranoia with which they are surrounded.These Generals are the epitome of corrupition and evil.The way in with they have treated Aung San Suu Kyi is nothing short of criminal.I believe they do this because in the main these Generals, self appointed I am sure, are secretly afraid of her.They are afraid of the retribution that awaits them just round the corner.Aung San is a very courageous lady and is deserving of our support.Long live demoracy.
