I just received an email from a friend of mine that lives in Kyrgyzstan, Bishkek. He and his family are starving, they have very little to eat and many to feed. This is part of the problem there....I will post his email to me, and you decide if he is right or wrong and see if you can "hear" the desparation in his writings.... ONLY here these days at us very astable situation in Republic. I live in Kyrgyzstan, Bishkek. At us revolution in the country. Have dethroned the government. The people are revolted by actions of the president. THOUSAND people left on meeting, have rushed into the white house, have grasped it. Have grasped a building of the State Office of Public Prosecutor, it as at you FBI. Have set fire to it. The building has burnt down. Large shops are broken. In republic the chaos is created. It is terrible to go out of doors. Crowds of people go along the street both smash shops and plunder shops and houses. Snipers on the white house have killed more than 60 persons. 1000 persons are wounded. In a city it is not visible in general policemen. The opposition has proclaimed new provisional government. You can write in GOOGLE "a situation in Kyrgyzstan" and will see all that occurs at us. I am afraid for the family. We do not leave anywhere the house. In the street shots from the weapon are audible. Shops all are crushed, deficiency of a foodstuff. Here therefore I wish to leave this country. Here there is no future for young generation while in our government the such is created. I'm in a shock. Awfully that the such is created at us. It is a shame with our country before all world community. Please, GAYLE look in GOOGLE "situation in KYRGYZSTAN" I am glad that though the Internet works also an electricity. But also it can end. Вообщем here such situation at us. I pray for my friend, his family, and his country....he is a very educated young man, and he can't even find a job in his country so he can help his family.
