Link contains disturbing video of Burmese soldier shooting civilians and Japanese cameraman
This is just insane. A Japanese cameraman was shot dead, deliberately, at point blank range.
For too long this ridiculous dictatorship has managed to hang on despite all the sanctions, all thanks to Communist China propping it up in exchange for its natural resources.
The government in Beijing is sullying the names of Chinese everywhere by propping up such dictatorships around the world like Sudan, North Korea, Zimbabwe and Burma. It is these regimes that require changing as soon as possible.
Beijing might be bothered about people boycotting next year's Olympics as a result of the backlash, but if they have to choose between clinging on to power or showing off to the West, I have a feeling they would choose the former.
