- DO YOU HAVE A SENSE OF CONSCIENCE?

- THE QUESTION IS DISALLOWED

No more kicking around rotten KGB videos. Read the dialogue between Palina Sharenda-Panasiuk and the "judge". Or better not only read it, but also learn it by heart and tell it to your children.

"Judge" - Stand up, please.

Palina - I won't stand up in front of the bandits.

"J" - Since when are you in custody?

P - Captured on January 3rd

"J"- Do you want to challenge the judges?

"P - You're not judges.

"J" - For what reasons?

P - A stalinist troika, country constabulary, but you're not judges.

"J" - Are you challenging me?

P - I'm challenging the whole system.

"J" - Do you understand the charges?

P – These are not charges, it's politically motivated persecution.

"J" - Do you plead guilty?

P - It is politically motivated persecution. This is a criminal case which you will later be accused of. You take part in political repressions.

"J" - Do you admit your guilt?

P - Do you admit that you are taking part in political repression?

"J" - You cannot ask questions to the judges. Do you plead not guilty?

P - It is a citizen's honor and duty to resist a bandit. I am not a defendant, I am a political prisoner. I demand to stop this muppet show.

"J" - Defendant, do you find the case proven?

P - I would like to thank the international community for imposing sanctions against Lukashenka's regime and call for an international tribunal!

"J" - Defendant, do you have any questions?

P - Aren't you ashamed of yourselves?

"J" - You can't ask questions to the court. Questions to the witness?

P - Aren't you ashamed?

"J" - The question is disallowed.

P - Do you have a sense of conscience?

"J" - The question is disallowed.
