And then what are they supposed to do? Rise up like we got the Kurds to do in Iraq?

It's not about what we get them to do. We/us aren't responsible for them.
Unless we are prepared to take the junta and their supporters (which is probably most of the officer corps) out and replace replace them with a UN backed group it's not our business. If the junta wants to let them die rather than allow aid in then thats up to them. If the UN doesn't do anything then as cold as it sounds "Oh well". All we are doing right now is backing a dictatorship. Thats what we are doing. We are aiding the junta and feeding their machine. Screw being goody two shoes unless you have an iron fist behind it.
