bust Posted May 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Yes, the truth can at times be cold and nasty. This is nature at its purest form, plain and simple. What a load of utter crap Neo. You don't know much about life in Burma. Nature plays an insignificant role in where these people are forced to live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogueyam Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Is that your opinion of the Xmas 2005 Tsunami and New Orleans/Katrina as well? Advanced warning was not an issue in New Orleans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.. Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Yes, but those were only "niggers." If the majority of losses were white middle class folks, they'd be canonized for "standing their ground and protecting their property." That meme has been played many times over the years... That's what makes Katrina so disgusting. Not to take away from this event, but RY is so easy to score on I can't resist.

You think you are "scoring" but you have in fact said nothing. It is no more than a tantrum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julian2 Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 The junta appears to be blocking aid, sounds like they don't want people nosing around. "Negotiating with the authorities" has a whole different meaning in Burma as well. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bust Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 This would have to be one of the best quotes I have ever heard. As criticism of the juntaâ??s handling of the disaster mounts, Chinese President Hu Jintao said that he anticipated the speedy restoration of â??normal life under the leadership of the SPDC.â? http://www.irrawaddy.org/highlight.php?art_id=11796&page=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian2 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Doesn't say much for a country that supports a regime like the junta just for the sake of their oil and natural gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
