Higher, Higher.
Everyone's talking about Obama's big speech, and about the imminent recession...
But I'm preoccupied with the riots in Tibet.
Things seem really terrible.
I have no real comment, other than:
Why aren't more powerful people condemning the Chinese occupation of Tibet?
Why aren't more powerful people condemning their brutal responses to these riots?
Why aren't more powerful people engaging in an intelligent debate about the merits of violent protest?
Is anyone else going to protest the Beijing Olympics this year?
Love
Dan
ps: You can get informed here, here, here and probably a lot of other places too.
