Update: The Situation in Burma

CNN is reporting that the military junta in Burma has freed the pro-democracy leader, Suu Kyi, and at least 50 of her key supporters.

In the mean time, the regime has redeployed armed troops into the country's largest city. From the article:

"The show of force after several weeks of relative quiet appeared aimed at forestalling any activities to mark the one-month anniversary of a key day in the anti-regime uprising by Buddhist monks, activists and ordinary citizens angry at the entrenched military government."

Things seem to be moving in the right direction, lets hope for more releases of political prisoners and fewer armed troops on the streets in the future.
