Political unrest has gripped Kyrgyzstan, an impoverished former Soviet republic, since early March, threatening a spillover of violence into the fragile, mainly Muslim region.
The clashes followed Tuesday's riot in the town of Talas, where protesters demanding the resignation of President Kurmanbek Bakiyev seized a local government office and took a regional governor hostage for several hours.

As long as money and power is present, "Leaders" will have alternate motives than the betterment of society. We need problem solvers not leaders! www.thezeitgeistmovement.com Nature,Technology, Science not money, politics and war.

That is some impressive footage. Seeing a whole contingent of riot Police flee in panic from a crowd of angry citizens is not something you see every day. I'm still slowly learning about what is going on. I remember when Current put up footage about the riots in Greece but these seem to be much more serious.
History is never over. It gets made every day, and no irresponsible government is safe...
