Does anyone really need any further evidence of the total barbarism of Burma's current government?
They keep the lawfully elected ruler of the country under house arrest
The wage war on their own citizens, such as the Hmong minority
They tolerate no action that could be perceived as diluting their own power
They turned machine guns on unarmed clerics who were protesting the abuses
And now, They refuse to aid almost 2 million of there own citizens because they are afraid that aid will weaken the Juntas authority.
The Burmese people are trapped. The events of the last few months show that they cannot escape the brutal system that has the country enslaved. And unlike many people in the world, the Burmese people are well aware of what their government is. (They used to be a democracy for almost 20 years before the Military coup)
The time is come that we help the Burmese people. By force if neccesary
They are just the victims of a western propaganda campaign you know. ;)
Propably fueled by those devilish bhuddist monks who summoned this cyclone in the first place and now demand aid supplies so that they can beat innocent burmese soldiers to death with them.
The burmese military junta is so terribily misunderstood by people who dont understand anything about Burma ...or cyclones.
These people should better refrain from mixing politics with natural disasters and sticking their nose into internal Burmese affairs.
Another example of old world dictatorships. In Iraq the real WMD was decades of Sadaam Husseins brutal rule. If the US really believes in free democracy, we should at the very least assist in dismantling these old dictatorships. It seems we pick those which effect us strategically only eg
N. Korea, Iraq or Iran.
Another one in the news recently is Mugabee's regime in Zimbawee. As all dictators do, using violence on his own people to get the election results that suit him, as he has for the last 30 years.
It is high time the ruling military junta in Burma was forcibly removed, and now is a perfect time to do it. The US would easily have a international concensus, if only to prevent the loss of life escalating to unacceptable levels. These inhuman dictatorships should no longer be tolerated in today's new world order. What happened to Bush's 'Liberty Century'?
i like the idea of the US doing air drops regardless of those loser dicators. They sit on their ass and protect themselves before the people.
Time to enact some sort of protocal that allows regimes like this to be toppled without need of a song dance of diplamatic niceties.
