What, you mean you haven’t heard about “Panties for Peace?” Here’s the lowdown from The Guardian Unlimited:
Activists exasperated at the failure of diplomacy to apply pressure on Burma’s military regime are resorting to a new means of protest against the regime’s recent crackdown: sending female underwear to Burmese embassies.
Embassies in the UK, Thailand, Australia and Singapore have all been targeted by the “Panties for Peace” campaign, co-ordinated by an activist group based in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
The maneuver is a calculated insult to the junta and its leader, General Than Shwe. Superstitious junta members believe that any contact with female undergarments – clean or dirty – will sap them of their power, said Jackie Pollack, a member of the Lanna Action for Burma Committee.
“Not only are they brutal, but they are also very superstitious. They believe that touching a woman’s pants or sarong will make them lose their strength,” Ms Pollack told Guardian Unlimited.
So far, hundreds of pairs of pants have been posted, according to another campaigner, Liz Hilton. “One group sent 140 pairs to the Burmese embassy in Geneva,” she said.

At last, a peace campaign we can all get…behind. Sorry Brant, couldn’t resist.
We created a game to raise awareness of this campaign

You get to throw panties at the generals and here them declare “stop this – this is against the Geneva convention!”
Have fun.
Brant, I’ve never been more proud of you than this Blog entry raising political awareness with ladies’ panties. Boy do I have a cross-dressing part for you in the next Shpiel!
