Buffalohair, General Than Shwe Threatens Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, Again
General Than Shwe Threatens Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, Again
Though
General Thein Sein was proclaimed president of Burma in one of several
sham elections perpetrated by the criminal cartel of Burma, General
Than Shwe still calls the shots from Naypyidaw. Just remember it was
under Than Shwe’s orders his top generals “retire” and form political
parties in advance of the bogus election of 2010. Many people were
quietly threatened, murdered or incarcerated in the process to pull off
this election scam and their blood still stains the streets. The
hopelessly corrupt Constitutional Referendum of 2008 paved the way for
this theatrical performance. Now Than Shwe has resumed his war against
Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and the National League for Democracy in earnest,
via his minion of course. Than Shwe deserves an Oscar for ‘Best
Fiction’.There is no question Than Shwe’s fingerprints are all over the latest push to quash Suu Kyi and the *NLD’s political aspirations. General Thein Sein, relegated to the ranks of gardener, has no real influence and must take orders like the other disingenuous generals turned politicians. That is the cold hard fact of life in contemporary Burmese politics. Than Shwe’s xenophobic fear of democracy, Suu Kyi and the NLD is a real cause for concern because of the planned visit to **Pagan. It would not be the first time Than Shwe orchestrated an unprovoked and bloody assault on his opposition. Ultimately the International Criminal Court will determine Thein Sein’s total involvement Burma’s ongoing holocaust. But alas it will be Than Shwe who has the most blood on his hands for he continues to kill. Nothing has changed in Burma except for the civil wars in the north.
The junta’s relaxing of censorship laws was very short lived but no one really believed the press would be allowed to print anything that remotely resembled the truth. Even a simple photo of Suu Kyi on a magazine cover was slammed by the censorship board. Than Shwe’s soldiers continue to rape and murder Kachin, Karen and other ethnic civilians in barbaric flare, hidden in plane site. So nothing has changed on the humanitarian front either. The only hope for Burma is when the people finally unite as one regardless of race or religion against a common enemy. Than Shwe’s ultimate weapon to divide and conquer using race and religion as a weapon would be neutralized. In any event Burma’s destiny lies in the hands of her own people for the world has proven to be impotent but their rhetoric of support sounded good.
It’s time for a Burmese Spring.
