Burma Update

Asia

I have a brief update on the unfolding tragedy in Burma posted on the other blog. Note in particular that much of the aid being sent into Burma by international aid organizations is being stolen and warehoused by the military junta, according to the New York Times.

The Buddhist Peace Fellowship asks that we direct our donations to the Foundation for the People of Burma (FPB), which has been using resources and contacts already in Burma to reach people in need.

    A military Junta refusing aid.
    Where have I heard that before? Hmmm, anyone remember Bush turing down help after 9/11 and Katrrina?
    If Republicans can cheat and win a few more elections, WE will be Burma – that’s if we’re not already there…
