As the world watches (at least what we can) the government of Myanmar uses its military might to put down protest in the country. As people are shot and arrested for there efforts to bring about change some people in Myanmar believe the U.N. will do nothing as you can read for your selff below. I requested information from several people living in Myanmar and received responses from only two. It is reported that the government had tried to shut down the internet to prevent information and pictures from getting out and at this time it is sporadic and may explain the lack of responses.

This is what one young man had to say, for obvious reason I am withholding the name of the person who provided this information.

The links to photographs and videos provided may be disturbing however I believe every one should see them.

Received from a college student

"Myanmar military regime was arranging trip for Mr. Gambari to Myit-Kyi-Nar City of Kachin State which was in northern Myanmar. That news is coincided with the news received before he went to my country, the regime backed USDA (Union Solidarity and Development Association) is forcing people to join faked protesting to trick UN Special envoy Mr. Gambari. People around the country believe that the regime will try their best to trick Mr. Gambari to ease international pressure

pray for the people of Myanmar. Too many of the ethnical races are now dying because (and this is another Holy War because of the religious government is the State!), the Junta, wants to control and give the emergency supplies to only his followers. This is NOT hard to see the truth behind this. The Junta and Governmental troops have been busy k.i.l.l.i.n.g ethnic populations in the jungle cultures of the sweet beautiful country once known as Burma. As well as we are to blame here in America (meaning ALL of America not just the United States.) Please see : Understanding religious : Thinking Outside the Box on ... - Google Books Result by J. P. Larsson - 2004 - Religion - 173 pages In Myanmar, this new religious identity has led to one of the iest civil wars in modern history, and it is included as an illustration here, ... books.google.com/books?isbn=0754639088...
