If it is true that the British and American governments occupy other countries to protect other people of harmful leadership, than why isn't there a single U.N., U.S. or coalition force in Burma?

People compare the American government to imperialists or even Nazis because of Iraq but the real monsters that are truly on par with Nazis are those in the military government in the Burma.

@Invesigator Because they can't fight everyone at once.

@atlanticraven the nazis owned these morons as a military strength but as far as civilian abuses go the nazis are fluffy battle-kittens compared to these bastards!

usually humans want all happiness to themselves, and hate seen too much happiness elsewhere. We humans are a disease, and we are destroying the planet, we are probably the worst species because we usually think. we should be killed by a meteor. it is the best, but I fear death, so no, lets keep making this place worse

The Egoist human mind won't change so the world won't change. we r all selfish. it's almost the point of life; only care about ur own self, achieve for ur own benefit. everything should move around I. I above Us, always. We r all full of fear, we fear being left alone, not being loved, not having, death, all of our choices are based on fear... and love is pretty much inexistent. that's what being human is all about, and it will never change. few to none stop being human in that sense.

@Invesigator Because the western nations do not very much about people, they only care about oil. What do to Libyan is for oil, not for helping Libyan. If Burma has lot of oil, they would do the same. They would bombed the dictator Burmese, too.
