the chaos in uzbekistan is nothing short of frightening

institute for war & peace reporting

which ends with:

Many people in Uzbekistan whom IWPR has spoken to would like there to be an official mourning period for the dead.

But since the authorities insist there were no mass killings, it follows logically that there is to be no grieving.

no surprise there. 1st hit: Uzbekistan: Bush's New Best Friend
