Definition of Horror and Sadness
Click here, here, if you have a heart.
Please note, the aid given here are by the People's Liberation Army of China. Why do I point this out? Cause the Burmese Junta refuse to help their own citizens! And, despite how bad China is, compared to Burma they are saints. And, John (I hate lobbyists) McCain hired two lobbyists who once toted the water of the Junta while calling President Bush a liar.
Tell me this doesn't break your heart knowing the Burmese people were just left for dead. That the children in China were smothered in debris, smashed between huge concrete beams, and forced to lie twisted in dark, dust-filled tombs hoping someone would rescue them. And the Chinese government did come and rescue them. But, the Burmese government just wanted them to die. And to this day, bodies float in stagnant water while soldiers stand on streets guarding sidewalks or preventing aid convoys from entering the hard-hit areas.
And yet, there is no real condemnation in the media for the Burmese government. Oh, sure, they cite that the Junta are blocking access or are preventing access to US and International aid. But, they defend it by calling the Burmese "paranoid".
This makes me sick and makes me just sick of John (I love liberalism) McCain. (Yes, I am glad to hear that Myanmar recently started to allow a greater flow of relief workers and aid supplies. But, how long did it take? Even people already there had to be secretive with their help. Even news crews had to fear for their lives for reporting the devastation)
