billcoe Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Some of you pussies who continually whine, bitch and complain about our government (Hurricane Katrina response) should occasionally look at how the rest of the world operates. Then STFU and count your blessings. News link This country has an estimated 100,000 DEAD, their country torn to shit by a cyclone, and their government still won't allow US aid planes loaded with relief supplies to land. In fact they just let the UN in. "YANGON, Myanmar - Relief supplies from the United Nations began arriving in Myanmar Thursday, but U.S. military planes loaded with aid were still denied access by the country's isolationist regime five days after a devastating cyclone. The military junta also continued to stall on visas for U.N. teams seeking entry to ensure the aid is delivered to the victims amid fears that lack of safe food and drinking water could push the death toll above 100,000......" Shitheads. Quote
STP Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 (edited) This is tragic but somehow when I saw Laura Bush I just knew the issue would become politicized. And no, I'm not talking about the junta's response. Shitheads. Edited May 8, 2008 by STP Quote
archenemy Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 I agree that it is a horrible shame that this country has opted to respond in this way; it does not lessen the shitty response that our own gov't had/has to our needs. People are not whiners when they discuss our gov't shortfalls; they have a right to speak up and to demand better from our gov't. Quote

ZONK Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 I think with the type of Military Leaders they have there, to let others in to help is a sign of weekness. and with past and some limited unrest there now it would be a major risk for them. Just a thought. Quote
dberdinka Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Yes, that makes a lot of sense, we should conclude that our government is just fine because they're not as fucked up as a third-world junta. Next you'll be telling us to compare the justice department to the Somali government. Quote

dt_3pin Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 What a bunch of fucktards. We invaded Iraq without any one's permission, and on the flimsiest of excuses. Why don't we just unilaterally start sending in humanitarian aid with the backing of some military muscle? Why the sudden respect for sovereignty? Quote
lI1|1! Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 STOP WHINING ABOUT THE WHINING!!! whining is good. unless it's whining about whining. you whiner whiner you. Quote
kevbone Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Why the sudden respect for sovereignty? Because Asia is much bigger than Iraq..... Quote

tomtom Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Unfortunately, some governments and other political groups regularly use international aid as a weapon against their own countrymen or as a source of income. Quote

I would laugh if it weren't so sad.

builder206 Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 In Soviet Russia government perfect and citizens make mistakes. That's the way the French run construction projects. The job would be safe, profitable, and on time if it weren't for the idiot workers. If only they could see management's brilliance... Quote
