In case there was any doubt: Fiji is well and truly now a military dictatorship.

The now unashamed dictatorship has not only installed military censors at all news outlets, has not only fired every judge in the country after they found the ‘interim’ government illegal, and arrested the President of the Law Society, has not only shut down the biggest (only?) source of external broadcast by turning off the Radio Australia tower, they have reportedly shut down the internet cafes... any bets on locking off Fiji's uplink next?

I wish Donald Fagen wouldn't write songs that kept becoming topical.

They're obviously scared of rising ocean levels. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.

Can we send them a targeted tsunami that will only wipe out the military?
