In-depth political analysis of the developing crisis in Kirgizstan, courtesy of the BBC:

But the BBC's Central Asia correspondent, Monica Whitlock, says the fact that some of the demonstrators are carrying pink banners while others carry yellow suggests there may be difficulties later finding common ground on more complicated political issues.

(Suggestion to BBC management: For your next Central Asia[n] correspondent, why not pick someone who can read the banners?)

Well, yes: clearly the gays will never be able to get along with the eaters of Peeps.

I fear civil war is inevitable.

You KNOW that eventually the Peep coalition will break down along the stale/fresh line.

Indeed, these hatreds are ancient.

What startled me about the whole deal there was that the first place I heard details about what was going on was on 'picture of the day' sites; even the NPR & BBC feeds I get had little to nothing.

that or else, i was too wrapped up in WoW. It's an old arguement I had with the Dipstick- what excatly do you get out of being knowledgeable about whats going on in the Big wide World?

I have come to expect better from you. :-) You spell Kirgizstan and offer NO explanation on why you spelled it like that... Are you NOW expecting ME to do my own research on this!? You set the standards sir, not me. :-)

If you follow the link, you'll see that I was merely following the usage of my source. Since there is admittedly illogic between simultaneously ridiculing a source and accepting it as an authority on matters of serious import, like proper spelling, I shall be happy to introduce Kyrgyzstan into the body of the entry.
