And still the President will not speak. And still the African Union and the Arab League will not speak. How many prayers, how many battles, how many suffocating from the fumes of tear gas and many more injured people will it take before someone says something? How can our Kenyan brother in the White House call Mubarak a friend while women are raped, men beaten, journalists arrested and a country is shut down from communication? Does Joe Biden know what it's like live in a state where one cannot protest or speak out against the government in fear of persecution. Does he know what it's like to live under a self-imposed curfew for fear you may be raped as a woman by government thugs during times of political unrest?
I do.
My country is a dictatorship, just like Egypt.
Mubarak is Mugabe-lite.
But still no one will speak.
Presumably 10 Downing St taken a vow of silence as scenes of violence in Cairo, Alerxandria and Suez are streamed out across the whole world. It's taken three days, eight corpses and counting for Ban Ki Moon to finally find his voice, if only a faint whisper about human rights and the internet shutting down. People have been killed, tortured and maimed for three days now, but it was internet that stirred him to speak. Meanwhile the Dalai Lama is still in silent meditation caressing his Nobel peace prize as ordinary people battle against repression.

After a decade of searching, scientists in 1990 identified the crater associated with this material. Today, if all the Believe It or Not! books ever published - well over 100 titles - were stacked one upon another, the total number of books sold would be more than 300 times as tall as New York City's Empire State Building! Running and gunning are fun, sure, but sometimes you just want to put on your trenchcoat, meet some smoky dames, and play a detective game on the PS3 or XBox.
