Burma Still Bad

I guess not.

Hey, what's one more government deception and MSM lie, huh?


"Myanmar releases deputy leader of opposition party; Officials don’t say if participation in elections allowed" by Associated Press | February 14, 2010

First item I have seen about Myanmar in three months.

YANGON, Myanmar - 82-year-old Tin Oo, who helped found the National League for Democracy with party leader Aung San Suu Kyi, said he would ask authorities to allow him to visit Suu Kyi, and thanked the United Nations, European Union, and others for pressing for his release.

Did you know Suu Kyi is Burmese for CIA?

Yup, just another CIA asset, folks -- which is why she makes print in the CIA papers!

In a statement, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon welcomed Tin Oo’s release and hoped it would promote “substantive dialogue’’ between the National League for Democracy and the government. He also urged the lifting of restrictions on Suu Kyi “without further delay’’ and the release of other political prisoners.

The UN special envoy to Myanmar, Tomas Ojea Quintana, is to arrive in Myanmar tomorrow. Human rights groups say the junta still holds about 2,100 political prisoners, including Nobel Peace laureate Suu Kyi....

Now you know why she gets a Nobel.

Wow, has that prize ever been cheapened the last couple of years.

Suu Kyi’s party won the last elections in 1990 by a landslide, but the military, which has ruled Myanmar since 1962, refused to cede power and has constantly obstructed her party’s operations in the past two decades.

Would you want CIA running amok and governing your country, readers?

Then why would the Burmese?

A highly decorated commander, Tin Oo rose to the rank of general and served as defense minister during the 26-year socialist regime of deceased dictator Ne Win. He was forced into retirement in 1976 and imprisoned for three years for alleged involvement in a plot to kill Ne Win. But it is widely believed that Ne Win wanted to eliminate the highly popular Tin Oo as a potential rival.

He's one of our agents, AmeriKa!!!!

Once you know how to read between the MSM lines you recognize them for what they are!

Tin Oo spent another three years in prison after the founding of Suu Kyi’s league.

His latest detention began after Tin Oo was arrested along with Suu Kyi on May 30, 2003, when a progovernment mob attacked their motorcade as they were making a political tour of northern Myanmar.

Four people were killed and 50 injured, according to official figures, but dissidents say the death toll was much higher.

That's Myanmar's business, not ours.

And what is with the dated file photo to fool you, readers?
