WTF were we trading with them for in the first place?
And we are still going to? WTF? Bet if it was Hamas we wouldn't.
This is all diversionary propaganda. George and Laura don't give a damn about Burma, despite what the Zionist-controlled shit war dailies say.
Otherwise, I WOULD HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT A LOT SOONER, right?
"Bush issues more sanctions against rulers of Burma" by Matt Spetalnick/Reuters October 20, 2007
WASHINGTON - President Bush expanded US sanctions against Burma's rulers yesterday, accusing them of "vicious persecution" of democracy protesters, and urged China and India to step up pressure on their neighbor.
Unveiling the second package of US measures in less than a month, Bush said he was adding more of Burma's military leaders to a list already facing sanctions, and had ordered a tightening of US export controls on Burma.
But in a tacit admission that US steps alone would not be enough, he urged China, India, and other countries in the region to "review their own laws and policies" on Burma.
"Burma's rulers continue to defy the world's just demands to stop their vicious persecution," Bush said. "They continue to reject the clear will of the Burmese people to live in freedom under leaders of their own choosing."
[Yeah, and HAMAS was DEMOCRATICALLY-ELECTED, asshole!!!
Sick of this SHIT LIAR!!!]
Bush's latest announcement followed weeks of mostly unsuccessful international efforts to get Burma's government to ease up on repression of protesters and to open a dialogue.
The White House said Bush's tightening of exports controls would include a ban on the sale of high-performance computers to Burma.
[Why are we even selling those thugs anything?
Or is this just bullshit for public consumption?]
Bush demanded the International Committee of the Red Cross be given access to political prisoners, that Suu Kyi and other detained leaders be allowed to communicate with each other, and that UN envoy Ibrahim Gambari be allowed back.
[While HE keeps them out of Gitmo and the secret black sites!
TIRED of this HYPOCRITCAL WAR CRIMINAL!!!!!]
"And ultimately, reconciliation requires that Burmese authorities release all political prisoners and begin negotiations with the democratic opposition under the auspices of the United Nations," he said.
Bush said the United States would "consider additional measures if Burma's leaders do not end the brutal repression."
[Consider additional measures? Like what?
Gonna INVADE THEM, too, asshole?
No, because there is not enough oil there, and Israel doesn't give a rat's ass about Asia.]
"Bush Imposes New Sanctions on Myanmar" by DAVID S. CLOUD
WASHINGTON, Oct. 19 — The White House said the Commerce Department would also tighten controls to prevent the export of computers and other goods with military uses to Myanmar.
[That means everything, since a modern society can not exist without "dual-use" items.
Or is this just ANOTHER Bush LIE?]
Laura Bush, who joined Mr. Bush at the announcements, has been one of the administration’s most forceful critics of the junta."
[At least, in the last two weeks!
Because I'd NEVER HEARD HER MENTION IT BEFORE!!!
And it certainly wasn't in your newspapers, crappers!!!]
