What can be much worse than Burma?

Hi,
Like many of you, I stand with the people of Burma who, as of August 19th, are currently being intimidated by their military dictatorship. In the world of Burma, the streets are empty and the bodies of monks who have been either detained, beaten, or killed. The streets of Burma are running red with blood that the Burmese military have on their hands. As of yesterday, the body count now stands close to 700, although human rights organizations are struggling to count how many have been killed or detained as prisoners of conscience.

According to Amnesty International, there is much worse going on around the world. In Japan, three people have been murdered ahead of resolutions set to be passed by the General Assembly of The United Nations. In Somalia, journalists need protection under the freedom of speech. In Egypt, there is a continuing crackdown on anyone who is a devout Muslim under the charges of perceived terrorism plots. The list goes on and on.

I also agree that all detainees at Guantanamo Bay must be released or be given a fair trial in a court of law, civilian or military tribunal. The United States has detained over 400 men at Guantanamo Bay without reason or cause over the course of the past four years. Legislation is currently in the works to shut down the Cuban federal detention center by the 2008 presidential elections.

In the LGBT World, the governments of Indonesia and Nicaragua must be stopped in their relentless criminalization of anyone who is gay or lesbian. Sexual abuse, torture, and other forms of bad treatment are forms of homophobia in both countries, who have criminalized consensual same-sex relationships between adults, particularly in Nicaragua. Although positive initiatives have been passed in neighboring countries, "sodomy" laws have been passed so that the government can imprison adults, regardless of sexual orientation.

I'm sorry this isn't about autism, but I am blogging whatever comes into my head.
I will be back with a new post on Wednesday.
