The AVAAZ Group needs your help! Burmese Nobel Peace Prize
winner AUNG SAN SUU KYI has been incarcerated and under house
arrest by the Military Junta for 13 YEARS now! She and 2,000 other
pro-Democracy activists and Buddhists are detained and allowed
NO contact with the outside world. World Leaders both past and
present have recently written hundreds of letters to UN Secretary-
General Ban Kin-Moon to pressure the Junta to release
her and the other prisoners. They feel the time is right following the
devastation caused by last years floods opened a doorway of
international dialogue through relief efforts.
You can help her by signing the petition below sponsored by
AVAAZ.org They hope to collect 888,888 signatures to aid the
UN officials in securing her release. I would urge you to post this
on any bulletin boards, blogs or sites you frequent. Many hands
make light work and collectively WE can challenge INJUSTICE!
Thank you.
