I think the point was on the day that the west condemened
Burma for kill 9 people 11 were killed in Gaza and the
MSM coverage was not equal, to say the least...

While the banning of protests in Burma is condemned by the
UK govenment protests against the Iraq war that has
killed 1.2 million [1] are banned [2].

Hypocrisy?
