Well yeah. There's plenty of oppressed populations in the world. But perhaps if we can get attention on one we can get a ball rolling. Or set a precedent that makes dictators think very carefully about their actions...
And thanks for making the joke. I wanted to but couldn't break the conscience barrier :)

It's a shame, but I think there are a number of states that need to be added to this list , not just the ones in the current public eye.

Funny that we - well, most of the West - were in like with a bullet (quite literally) over Iraq and Afganistan.
Burma on the other hand we seem to be ignoring and have been for the last 20 years or so.
:(
Iraq = Oil
Afghanistan = completely pointless little country, but the obvious target to justify the "War on Terror"
So what about East Timor, Tibet, Checnya, Liberia, etc, etc?
