DESCRIPTION:Friday October 12, 2007; 2 pm - 5 pm\nProtest for peace and freedom in 
 Burma\nRally and Meditation at the Indian Consulate, 540 Arguello Blvd, San 
 Francisco, 2 pm – 5 pm\n(2-3 Silent Protest/Meditation; 3-5 
 Rally)\nHundreds of thousands of peaceful people led by Buddhist Monks cry 
 out for an end to a longstanding military dictatorship.  Holding Sassana 
 flags and reciting prayers of love on the street is a crime in Burma 
 punishable by beating and death.  Monasteries were raided, residences 
 vandalized, over 2000 arrested, many monks disrobed, humiliated, tortured, 
 killed. The people of Burma have been silenced through military control, 
 but they have not stopped protesting.  People are still being killed for 
 taking to the streets. Here where we can protest safely, we urge India, the 
 world's largest democratic supporter of the Burmese brutal dictatorial 
 regime, to step in and help resolve the situation peacefully.  The Indian 
 minister was busy signing sweet business deals with the military regime in 
 Rangoon while monks, nuns and people took to the streets. \nContact: Nyunt
