U.S. Eases Sanctions to Permit Disaster Aid to Myanmar

How infinitely tragic it is that the military dictatorship which controls Burma (Myanmar), puts their interests ahead of the desperate needs of their people, and refuse to accept sorely needed help from the nations. We are told that more than 100,000 people may have perished in the cyclone and countless more are suffering now, but the military dictatorship don't care. No handouts for their country. Let the people die. Their ideological stupidities, power hunger, and control mean more than providing mercy and compassion for the people of Burma by accepting the mercy and compassion from the nations of the world.
