<br>
Today, our petition to <st1:country-region w:st="on">China</st1:country-region>
and the UN Security Council to stop the brutal crackdown on peaceful Burmese
protesters is being delivered to the world in <b><span style='font-weight:
bold'>a full page ad in the Financial Times worldwide -- but the ad was
rejected by other newspapers like the <st1:place w:st="on">South China</st1:place>
Morning Post and the Singapore Straits Times.</span></b> Our message is an
invitation to <st1:country-region w:st="on">China</st1:country-region> to do
the right thing in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Burma</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
not an attack -- yet even that seemed too much for media that fear Chinese
reprisals. <br>
<br>
<b><span style='font-weight:bold'>We won't let our voice be silenced like
this. We're taking our message to the streets, in an international day of
action on Saturday -- </span></b>details are on our petition page, and below.
And we're redoubling our efforts to<b><span style='font-weight:bold'> make
our voice louder:</span></b> our petition is approaching 600,000 signatures,
closing fast on our 1 million goal.<b><span style='font-weight:bold'>The

help us reach 1 million voices by Saturday!</span></b> <br>

feelings on this crisis and the need for action, and then tie a red ribbon or
piece of cloth around fences or trees to leave a more lasting sign of your
support for the Burmese. <br>
The worldwide outcry to save Burma's peaceful monks and protesters is one
more sign of how the world is getting closer, feeling increasingly
responsible to each other, and for each other as human beings. We're bringing
a voice of humanity to this desperate situation, and we must not be silenced.
