Byelorussia is not the Ukraine nor is Georgia. This is no "orange or rose" revolution. And as our peer group begin to report "possible deaths" it is time to give them the support they ask for.
We need not go into Byelorussia history, we need not touch on the possible presence of a CIA rendition secret prison.
We need not remind ourselves that even our old friend Soros (where are you now Georgie & how's the memory?) saw his team booted out of minsk after being question at Okristina street in 1997.
Nope, we don't need to touch that.
We just need to remember that is now Saturday night / Sunday morning. And things can go really bad on weekends, especially if no-one reads what you're saying, and can understand your language.
we don't even need to remember that the conservative alliance who presently govern Poland teamed up with Radio Liberty to broadcast into Byelorussia from March 19th onwards.

Here's the latest report in translation from "Thistle"
In an organized way columns of demonstrators are moving to Okrestina st. (special prison is located there). Police don’t detain them so far. There are about 5000-7000 of demonstrators. They are going by pavements towards a hospital, show-center and further to Okrestina. On each of the four sides of the Kupala park there are 10 buses with riot squads, 700-750 policemen from each side.
On Okrestina policemen of all kinds continue to amass, there are already arrived:
- 3 armored trucks (the ones that have earlier been used to convey the arrested demonstrators from the October square). They are full with special forces (in black uniform, masks and helmets)
- 3 buses – inside there are riot squads fully equipped
- cars with policemen – 7-8 vehicles
--- 16:16
Special forces have blocked the column from two sides on the Dzerzhinskii ave. At 16:10 riot squads started to blow up something at the head of the column!…
