Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, Nobel Peace Prize recipient and Buddhist activist for democracy in Burma, was due for release from house arrest at the end of this month....clearly, she poses a great threat to the opposition forces.  Trumped up charges have been brought against her, and if found guilty,

Daw Aung San Suu Kyi could spend the next several years in prison.  Please lend your voice to the international call for her release, and for the release of those who have been imprisoned unjustly under military rule in Burma.
