Rebels puffing (r)



Dear all activists
During last week, I found that soe than and susuhuang started posting on 
Burmanet.  Until now, I found that they only posted against all activists.  
They are trying to distract us from our main theme.  They mostly use filthy 
words to provoke us angry and response angrily.  So we may lose our main 
theme.  It has no benefits to discuss with them.  Don't waste your time.  
Let's discuss among our devoted activists for restoration of democracy and 
human rights in Burma.  Don't pay attention to their barking words.  Don't 
response to okkar, soe than, and susuhuang.
Be ware of Counterrevolutionary forces.
galon

P.S
I would like to remind Okkar, Soe Than, Susuhuang
that you are using the Burmanet which is sponsored by ABSDF.  If you are in 
Burma and you are talking about SPDC like this, you will be in big trouble.
