Doing a great job man. Keep reporting. Only way not to feel so damn powerless in this situation.
Is it possible this crisis, like the color-revolutions, were manufactured? If you don’t know look up the name Robert Helvey.
Anug San Suu Kyi’s connection with the CIA (thru our intelops like DIA officer Col. Robert Helvey) and the Karen insurgency is an open secret:

I would like to use some of these photos to help spread the word about the situation in Burma, but I don’t know what the permissions are. Any suggestions?
Dear Ruby
To the best of my knowledge, all of the photos came from local persons (and one or two persons from abroad) who distributed them freely through blogs and some other channels. Some of them explicitly wrote that there should be no copyright on any of their pictures.
I kept a record of where I obtained them all and if you want to know for specific pictures and try to seek out the original source then please make another post. But keep in mind that it will be nigh impossible to contact any of the bloggers in Burma these days.
I did my best to weed out all of the agency photos (Reuters, AP, AFP, etc.) but if you see any that you saw elsewhere that may be under licence, please let me know and I will take them off if found to be so.

Great. If I use any of these I will link back to this page to give credit. Thank you so much for sharing these pictures with the world!
Please give thanks to the brave photographers and bloggers in Burma, many of whom are now in very serious danger.
can you send me more pictures on burma
Most of the pictures that I have on the protests are here. There were many photos taken by agency photographers, but you should pay to use them.
Well, keep it up, the world needs to see some real at last, there is much bravery here with these beautiful people, wish there was more one could do. . .
