The United Nations have done nothing but to send envoys in the past which resulted to nothing but sanctions. A massacre of 3000 peaceful demonstrators in 1990's, both from the religious and social classes is a clear violation of human rights and abuse of power, just recently another demonstration was quelled by force by the military junta where more than 300 were believed killed. I believe UN needs to act on these abuses and massacres by the Junta. Those happenings were clear genocides and no action but sending an envoy was done by the UN which is supposed to be the protector of the world. Was it because Burma is a tiny poor nation compared to Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran and North Korea? And nothing like oil can be siphoned from this poor country? As an ordinary citizen in your country, do you believe UN have to send its troops to Burma, unseat the junta's leaders and install an interim government just like what they did in Iraq and Afghanistan?
