To any n' all righteous ruffians, rebels, judicious journalists, and anyone else
on here who has seen/been a part in any kind of protests, riots, orcoups d'etat
(andnot following a Killing Joke tour cancellation) and who've been
following all the recent uprisings in the muslim world, a couple of questions,

 - the rash of journalists being beaten, imprisoned, assaulted, and raped during
these uprisings.. aren't most(if not all) of the perpetrators native government
agents provocateurs? An organized assault on the press to sear a precedent for
future's sake re:coverage of muslim turmoil?
I just sense a certain je ne sais quoi in the patterns of behaviors (albeit
limited to media news coverage) that tells me it isn't "grassroots" or
spontaneous;
and,
 - are the current public-workers' unions protests in Wisconsin inspired by all
the recent world uprisings, inpired past the point of quintessential american
workers' submissive apathy?

I wanna say yes to both but thought I'd ask.

Hajime!
