CNN has obtained exclusive footage smuggled out of Myanmar (formerly Burma) which provides the first solid proof of rumored atrocities against those protesting against the military dictatorship. The footage shows blood on the streets, protesters being beaten by soldiers, a demonstration being dispersed, and men said to be plainclothes intelligence offices loading those arrested onto trucks.

CNN is also reporting that by now most signs of the crackdown have been eliminated, with the blood being washed away and the protesters arrested or simply disappeared. Even worse, reports are trickling out that Buddhist monks have "all but disappeared" in parts of the capital city, and there are rumors of massacres.
