    I agree with you on that. It's amazing how nobody really seems to care - I would have thought a tourism boycott would be a very effective way of putting pressure on the regime.

    I was uncomfortable about this at first too, I think the argument is that it would be the local people, who rely on tourism for their livelihood in a very real sense, who would be the ones being punished.

    I think I did a thread on it....hold on.....
