Another Than Shwe Smoke Screen

Hillary and Than Shwe

With the release of about 6,300 prisoners, with only a hand full of political prisoners, it is clear this is yet another tactical ploy by Than Shwe. Last year the Burmese government released about 2,000 prisoners only to secretly refill the prisons with pro democracy advocates, entertainers and anyone who opposed his rule. There is no question this prison release will make more room for more pro democracy and human rights advocates who oppose the illegal 2010 elections.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s failure to address human right’s concerns in favor of profits before humanity was the wrong message to send China and Burma, let alone Tibet. United Nations Human Rights envoy Tom Quintana’s failure to speak with pro democracy groups and eye witnesses to egregious crimes against humanity only exacerbated the plight of human beings who looked with hope and promise to these so called icons of freedom and human eights. How far beyond stupid were these envoys or was it calculated all along?

Humanity has been put aside in favor of economical consequences as the jungles of Burma flowed with human suffering. Did Quintana visit the KNU or visit refugee centers along the border? Did Hillary Clinton visit any ofChina’s slave labor Gulags populated with approximately a 80 millions human beings? Not a chance. Her visit to Indonesia was nothing more than a series of photo-ops and junket dinners since she failed to garner an audience with the leaders of the Muslim community, her primary mission. Throwing a few strategically vague barbs at North Korea was nothing more than impotence personified fore she would not dare upset the goose that laid the golden egg, China.

Truly this reeked of a much darker agenda where the corporate bottom line took precedence over humanity and democracy. Now Than Shwe will advance with his plan to secretly arrest, torture and murder anyone who opposes him and his illegal elections in 2010. With 6,000 plus beds to fill in his prisons the people of Burma had better prepare for another round of kangaroo courts and false imprisonment. The non actions of Clinton and Quintana far over shadowed Ibrahim Gambari’s lackluster performance by far and soon other nations will follow suite as this reprehensible and dishonorable signal gives the green light to other potential dictators.

Human rights organizations around the world were stunned by this turn of events but I saw it coming whence Barack Obama selected Hillary as Secretary of State. Like a fox watching the hen house Hillary will eventually make her way to Africa, another place where she and her husband garner “donations” from third world dictators. The cancer of corporate greed and their exalted corporate bottom line will continue as economics takes center stage in world politics.

Money tainted with blood will fill the pockets of industry as “progress” moves forward drowning the cries of the suffering. The only hope for humanity will be the intangible and much prophesized “time of change”. Absolute faith within our respective dogma’s will be our ultimate weapon as the Earth prepares to cleanse the globe of a disease rot with greed and tyranny fore it is written, the meek shall inherit the Earth. Like Martin Luther King once said, “Remember, everything Hitler did was legal”.

Denmark Extorts Burmese Democracy Groups

Denmak's Ulla Toreas

Norway's Erik Solheim

In a stunning turn of events the Danish government organization, DANIDA, informed pro democracy groups they would cease funding if they did not participate in the illegal elections in 2010 as reported in the *Asian Times.

Denmark, a member of the World Trade Organization, clearly they violated the European Unions ban on high-level visits to Burma as well as show the lack of moral fiber. Denmark’s Development Minister Ulla Toraes andNorway’s Minister of Development Erick Solheim deceived their citizens as well as the world when they traveled to Burma to observe Cyclone Nargis relief efforts.

Toraes and Solheim chose to side with the criminal regime of Burma and use extortion to force pro democracy groups to participate in the elections or loose critically needed funding. The world should be aware of the character of this duo of deception and blackmail for it is not the voices of the countries they represent. Did they also receive bribes from Than Shwe like it is alleged Ibrahim Gambari? Or are they part and parcel in the pockets of international interests who seek to rape Burma of all her natural resources?

With Secretary of Hate Hillary Clinton choosing to address economical concerns rather than human suffering it is obvious human rights has no place in society. Toraes and Solheim should be investigated and their finances reveled to see if they received gratuities and favor from unknown sources. Chances are they are deeply involved with the likes of Swift Financial Group who launders Euro’s through their elaborate financial network for the Military Regime of Burma. They do not represent the good people of Denmark or Norway and should be sanctioned at the very least for their amoral conduct.

How dare these boneheads qualify a criminal regime that uses rape, false imprisonment and death to force their rule on a nation? How dare they insult the fallen hero’s of Burma’s struggle to achieve democracy and human rights? How far beyond stupid are these mental giants to qualify genocide and the continual assault of Karen and other tribal people? There must be more to this act of collusion committed morally bankrupt Toraes and Solheim and it is strongly suggested that journalists around the world probe more deeply into these partners of Than Shwe for their actions are despicable as best. Obviously they both are puppets of international corporatists who place money before humanity and would sell their respective nations for monetary gain. Is Norway next to propose sanctions of democracy? It’s all about the money.
