As the poet said, mourning:

So get out your pistols
Get out your stones
Get out your knives
Cut them to the bone
They are the lackeys of the grocer’s machine
They built the dark satanic mills
That manufacture hell on earth
They bought the front row seats on Calvary
They are irrelevant to me
And I grieve for my sister

Buddhist monks are respected leaders in a Buddhist community, but their nonviolent protests simply can’t match the brutal violence of the government.

That's a pathetic response. I don't read Time. Last I heard, the odds were said Unknown Rebel had been executed - and Tiananmen Square doesn't seem to have changed anything.
