Myanmar's military regime allowed in the first major international aid shipment Thursday, but it snubbed a U.S. offer to help cyclone victims struggling to recover from a tragedy of unimaginable scale.

How gracious of them...........

If they don't want our help, then screw 'em. Let them die. We can turn their country into a new Disneyland.

[Gentle Taz]

They want our supplies but don't want people from other countries distributing the supplies. Politics taken to the extreme. The junta wants the people to see them as the saviors, not anybody else.

[Christian or not]

nobody should be sending anything over there. Charity begins at home. Until everyone in this country has a warm bed to sleep in and at least 2 good meals a day, no charity dollars (especially from our government) should be flowing outside our borders. So it is written, so it shall be done!

The first task is to find someone in the government that gives a crap about us.

Damn Bible Thumpers and Do Gooders.... Help the people in THIS Country FIRST.... I don't see any foreign countries rushing to the aid of the poor people that just lost their homes last night in tornados!
Screw the rest of the world.... take care of the USA FIRST!
