Sharipov's Homeland Racked by Pro-Democracy Demonstrations

Sharipov's Homeland Racked by Pro-Democracy Demonstrations
http://gatewaypundit.blogspot.com/20...yrgyzstan.html

The situation in Kyrghizia might be ameliorated if
the republic's most famous son, Salizhan Sharipov
(http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/sharipov.html),
now in space aboard the International Space Station
(he is a Russian citizen and a cosmonaut), made some
pacifying, unifying remarks. The US could help by
encouraging him to do so, via NASA.

Sharipov is an ethnic Uzbek, from an Uzbek village
that is within the borders of Kyrghizia. Both ethnic
groups are closely-related 'Turkic' cultures.

The situation in Kyrghizia might be ameliorated if the republic's most
famous son, Salizhan Sharipov
(http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/sharipov.html), now in space
aboard the International Space Station (he is a Russian citizen and a
cosmonaut), made some pacifying, unifying remarks.

Hmm, there was a spokesperson from OSCE making a similar suggestion
(asking for pacifying, unifying remarks, and for the protestors to
calm down and stop burning things).

It isn't clear to me whether that is what the situation needs, or
whether a bit of hell is in need of raising.
