The shame of this is the people who really interested in democracy will probably die for nothing because the two countries that border Burma have deals with this government for oil and gas.More fatalities in the petro wars.

It’s not necessarily an outside military intervention that could create significant effect.
Withdrawing all international forms of participation, support and a threatened boycott of the upcoming Olympics might entice China, a main player of influence, to actively and immediately intercede.
