Partial rant here, so bare with me.
I read this article while on vacation and it really pissed me off that this is even a topic of discussion.

Why, please tell me why the fuck anyone thinks it's a good idea for us to invade Myanmar right now... on whatever terms they may be. You know what? Fuck Myanmar.
"YANGON, Myanmar (CNN) -- As aid groups struggled to distribute supplies to cyclone victims despite government obstacles, Myanmar TV was broadcasting messages urging people to vote "yes" in a referendum that critics say would strengthen the military rule.
The New York Times said it appeared that some resources for cyclone victims was diverted to the vote campaign. In some cases, generals' names were scribbled onto boxes of foreign aid before being distributed, according to the Associated Press."
I'm sorry, but as retarded as it is that the US feels the need to spread our political semen all over the globe, it's even more retarded to think that it's a good idea to force our way in like we did in Bosnia when this country is refusing our help. We've got plenty of problems stateside to worry about and our military resources are spread too thin thanks to the retards who thought the Iraq war was a good idea.
Yep, it's a terrible disaster they're enduring over there, but that means absolutely nothing to me if it came to our troops going over there and potentially creating another shitstorm. Let the worldwide aid groups deal with it and if they can't make any headway, let that country fall apart. That's their business if their government wants to allow it to happen.
There must be oil or WMD's in Myanmar that we haven't been told about :roll:
