BEIJING, China - Jittery Chinese authorities staged a show of force to squelch a mysterious online call for a "Jasmine Revolution," with hundreds of onlookers but only a handful of people actively joining protests inspired by pro-democracy demonstrations sweeping the Middle East.

Authorities detained activists Sunday, increased the number of police on the streets, disconnected some cellphone text messaging services and censored Internet postings about the call to stage protests in Beijing, Shanghai and 11 other major cities.
There is no show of force stronger than "gestapo thugs" having your blogs and texts beaten within an inch of their lives.

If we had a revolution what would we call it? The Cold War has already been used. The Northern Pike Revolution?

The Bush klan's favorite government (next to the Saudis). Don't expect much change, there.
