Burma

Is there any chance of these monks not being slaughtered, or at least jailed and beaten up?

Depends: do they even have Foot and Mouth?

Doesn't look like it.

Probably not, but it might start a revolution.

They know they're likely to be slaughtered, or jailed/beaten up. And they're doing it anyway.

Something's gotta give.

It would seem not. Except…

Why hasn't it happened already? And why was Aung San Suu Kyi allowed out to greet them?

Maybe the authorities are letting things escalate because they fancy a nice, big bloodbath, I guess.

Could go either way. Will the military obey an order to attack them? How much pressure is China putting on Burma not to go over the top?

Highly dangerous, but hopeful.

Apparently there are fake monks in with the real ones ready to start violence so that the government has an excuse to start killing them all. It's very very sad and I hope that it doesn't happen.

Good luck to them is all I can say.
