"Please use your liberty to promote ours."A quote by Daw Aung San Suu KyiBefore I became aware of the depths of what was going on, for decades, to our fellow human beings, in Burma, now named Myanmar, I had no idea it was as profound as it is. Burma is, without a doubt, a tragedy.Burma is a land where singing a song or reading a poem calling for democracy can lead to a long prison sentence.No doubt some people in Myanmar are in prison because they did something wrong, but in comparison to those sent there, for doing nothing, it's drastic and unspeakable.While in prison, if one is caught reading anything unauthorized or writing anything unauthorized, it can mean a possible 7 years added to a person's prison sentence.If you own or use a FAX machine, and it wasn't registered with the government, it can and has been enough reason to send a person to prison.Assistance Association for Political Prisonershttp://...

i only hope one day there will be an organization that could send entire corrupt governments to jail. this can only be done with a unified world government, making our present governments act much like municipalities instead of principalities. the UN is too weak and headed in the wrong direction. No government should be above the law.

You are so right. Those government officials are BEYOND corrupt, above the law, ABUSERS of the system and mentally diseased. They are the people who deserve to be incarcerated, for life and treated the exact same way they have treated other wrongly imprisoned and tortured people.

it's sad when individuals can be sentenced and jailed so easily that our prisons are bursting with capacity but entire goverments who kill and rape in the thousands seem immune to prosecution of any kind. killing is killing even when call it something like war or capital punishment.

I do not think that with all the diplomatic support from Chinese and the money they dole out (its easy for them to buy a couple of goons in milirary garb than win over real leaders) it may well be another Rwanda or Darfur.Why dont we start exposing these Burmese and Chinese diplomats (UN or otherwise) with cameras and Bullhorns and reverse their own "We have your pictures.. we'll get you"

All sectors of the society should join the march.Poor, rich, monks, mothers, teenagers, students, government employees, private businesses, ordinary soldiers, police, etc.should join.March to the Generals houses and demand therestoration of FREEDOM for BURMA.

The 40 million of Burma should unite!Let a million people to the streets of Rangoon.Bring Flowers and food to be given to the ordinary soldiers.Your enemy are the Junta generals. The ordinary soldiers can be befriended and jointhe large group of the masses.
