Well introspection yes introspection is the buzz word today.
One of the local tv broadcasters near by had a commentary about how terrible it was for the despot goverment of Myanmar, to deprive its Cyclone impoverished citizens from recieving American Aid because it would make the goverment look weak and unable to provide for its citizens. and it dawned on me Introspection I recall oh say four years ago when Hurricane Katrina pounded the Gulf Coast and many standed and starving New Orleans people were in desperation, you all remember the big sign HELP, and you will recall that the Russian goverment aand Italian goverment offered to send Hospital ships to the Gulf Coast to help the desperate people, and were turned down by GW and Fema under Jim Brown, Hello, Hello, is this ringing a bell ? Hello ? Just an observation.
This is what I thought how do we go to this high number, who is to say this horrible junta didn''''t use this horrible weather phenomenon to literary obliterate the people to finally get rid of the problem people the government thought they had. Do you doubt they would do that?
No, I don''t doubt it for a minute. That''s just too many people and for the death toll to go up so fast I don''t see how they would know the numbers that fast without helping it out a bit or even quite a bit.

hard to imagine, but in places like that, a life means nothing. if killing a nothing can get you a couple of $$, and even more so, maintaining that ''nothing'' under the worst conditions as well, it is a lose lose situation for a country like the US, which is even presented as the responsible global caretaker/doctor/parent/nurse- what have you... it is an unfair position that many impoverished contries take advantage of...
how do 100,000 people die in a cyclone?! it went from 350 to 100,000 in about 2 days!! that is a loTTTTTTTTTTT of people. how is something like that possible?! with corrupt governments like that who only use their population (even massacring them) to exert their control over other financially powerful countries, that ''''something''''s fishy'''' feeling comes real quick. absolutely more to this story than we are getting. without a doubt.

with the global food crisis, an event like this one seems to be a new form of blackmail toward especially the US. this regieme (myanmar) is obviously threatening to starve it''s population, or waste it away if this country (the US)does not comply. it is the most complicit form of bribery exhibited by violent leaders against inherently pacific nations like the US. many other impoverished nations use so called natural disasters for this purpose. just think of how much money/supplies are sent to them in these events (-for free!!)...sound callous, but it is a viable source of income to these regiemes.
Wow!! if we only put out this much energy into Katrina, as we are to a country that doesn''t even want our help, why not help these people through a country they will accept and do it quietly, not like look look I am America and let me in.Katrina folks are still needing help Hello
Peace and Love Fibonazi, you say "demslie, give me a break. I side more with the democrats than you idiotic Republicans and I despise the government of "Myanmar". You are one of the dumber people on here commenting. Most likely a Christian. "

WE are the most powerful nation in the world ,yet we have these **** a.s.s. countries like myanmar bucking us!We should take the grub and leave,or bring it via gunship,then pass it out!I get so sick of these little countries who can''t feed themselves holding back food for political reason,while little children starve.Sens the delta force over there and pass out the food!
Why ,are you people making a big deal of a natural disaster,you may be next ,fires,floods,tornadoes,earthquakes, are all lined up waiting to come visit you.Start a food storage going if don''t have one,as you can see, when the raft of nature comes calling ,then you realize how small humans are on the earth ,Like sand on the beach.
