Hungarian Revolution: rememberance and protest

TODAY, NOT just 1956... protests rage!!!!

Today there were amazing things happening in Budapest on the 50th anniversary of the beginning of the revolution. To get an almost fair description what happened in 1956... watch this video from the VOA... click here

to see a set of pics from that era go to the BBC, click here

But a new "revolution" is afoot in Hungary right now... another set of BBC pics from Budapest TODAY

It is appropriate, in my opinion, that if the people see injustice today, then today is an appropriate day to protest... aren't the memories of those who died for freedom honored by such?

And today I see another similarity... while the US pays attention to Iraq (like Suez Canal then), Darfur is raped and killed (like Hungary then)...
