Amongst people who actually want it?

Keep in mind there is no oil or anything else the US would want to extract from Myanmar.

It's so obvious that it makes me sick... The USA will only invade a country if it has an economic, national security, or criminal interest (remember Manuel Noriega in Panama) = It will only use military force when its interests are affected. Plain and simple.

The USA will never invade Mynamar, even if there was no Iraq or Afghanistan. It doesn't meet our criteria even if its citizens cry out for American-style democracy. There's no economic interest or natural resources. I'm sure there's drug traffic coming through the country but Myanmar is not close distance-wise to the USA. Most importantly, how would China and Russia feel about the USA using military force in a country so close to them? Look at what happened in the Vietnam conflict when those countries were funding North Vietnam and the VC's to fight American troops.

And what if Russia decided to invade El Salvador or Belize? Don't you think the USA would do something, even if they're tiny countries in our hemisphere? Oh yea... remember the Cuban Missle Crisis.

Lastly, does any American parent want to see their sons and daughters in Mynamar (possibly fighting in a civil war) for a couple of years? It's political sucide...

It's a very depressing fact... But the USA doesn't truly care about democracy in countries that don't meet our economic and strategic interests. We may say a lot about spreading democracy, but when called to action... We just stand on the sidelines most times. I just wish the American government would outright say this, and not fool the world into hoping the USA will really help them out.

I've been reading that Mynamar citizens are asking for help from the USA, like a military force or even bombing strategic government sites. It's sad their requests will not be met. We'll just hear more American rhetoric about how evil the Mynamar government is, and how we're holding their financial interests. Blah Blah Blah.

To tell you the truth, there are only two ways to realistically help Mynamar. The UN or USA can "buy" China's corporation, like providing more economic benefits to China. I'm sure China is trading weapons with the Mynamar government. Or the USA can indirectly train and send weapons to the government opposition which will cause a long and bloody civil war...

I hope you are kidding. The plan has always been Iran. If you don't believe that just look at the map. If you don't believe it look at the map. We have troops covering 80% of their border. Hagee the controversial McCain supporter is a lobbyist for the Christians United For Israel. The CBN has claims that a Muslim who was working for the Nazis to exterminate the Jews was Ayatollah Khomeini's teacher. Thus Islam represents the new Nazism. They claim that the Koran calls for the extermination of the Jews that is a out right lie. They say we should protect the Jews because they are the Children of Abraham but that is only part true. If God will curse those who cruse the Children of Abraham then you must know that the Jews are a small fraction of that Abraham's Children. Abraham's first child Ishmael who was according to the Angel of God was to be the Father of Seven nations, presumptively Arab. Then Abraham has Isaac who had two sons Jacob and Esau. Now Esau had seven wives each producing an unnamed number of sons and kingdoms still Children of Abraham. Then Joseph had ten sons Who became the Nation of Israel. After the reign of Solomon the kingdom which had expanded into twelve tribes split. The ten tribes to the north who called themselves the Nation of Israel were captured by the Assyrians and dispersed throughout the empire. The Assyrians Were Captured by the Babylonians who later captured the other two tribes who of Benjamin and Judah and carried them into Captivity for seventy years. When Cyprus of Persia conquered Babylonia he free the captives who were by then then known as the Jews from Judah. So if we accept Judo/Christian text as Gods protection of the Children of Abrahan we should not attack Muslims because most of them claim Abraham as their father. The Koran affirms that. The Bush/McCain campaign are marching us toward WWIII. When peace is in our own best interest. Hagee should be charged with fraud for passing off his lobbying activities as non profit. There is no difference between Hagee, McCain or Bush.

No, the US will not invade Myanmar primarily because the US is a supporter of the Right-Wing Military dictatorship,

No. And if they do, I'm pretty sure Burmese people will not want it. We don't need a war zone like Iraq, we need a peaceful transaction.

No, the US is a little busy right now. It is really something the UN should be involved with and I am sure they will get to it, right after the Sudan.
