It is fucking infuriating that thousands WILL DIE who could have been saved. Fucking junta. But with the Chinese supporting them there is nothing anyone can do. I bet if they try to invoke that new UN thing where they can violate sovereignty for a 'humanitarian crisis' ..the Chinese would block it. And there are already reports of the donated 'relief supplies' ending up in the hands of people who were NOT affected, of course. What a shocker that is. *disgusted*

I bet they really do not give a shit really, that junta government. What is a few hundred thousand dead, a few million suffering, in a nation of 55 million? Not much to them apparently as long as the majority are cowed, subdued, and getting something to eat. It is just hopeless there. And now the stupid fake ass election is over and they have their pseudo 'mandate from the people' to continue the oppression. FUCKERS.

*rant over*
