The people of Myanmar are being oppressed under a truly foul, reprehensible government.

New Orleans as Johno mentioned is a good example. Sometimes countries do not want to show the world their incompetence in certain situations.

Burma is afraid of that, but more specifically they are afraid of importing western ideas into their country that will undermine their military dictatorship. Also, they want to be seen as the source of Burma's rescue/survival, not foreigners I heard it has something to do with area 52 and the JFK assassination…

Maybe its because they have thousands of bodies floating in rivers and people starving to death. Or maybe its because the militant government is refusing the proper aid. The United States is not the devil. If we don't give aid we are considered bad. If we do give it, people like you don't like it and call us evil! What is the US to do? Sorry we are not coldhearted. Take a look at yourself though! I think you are way off base here. Maybe its because they have thousands of bodies floating in rivers and people starving to death.
