“I ask all freedom-loving people to pay attention to the latest crackdown in Burma by that country's brutal military regime. A few days ago, the military again reminded us why Burma has one of the most despicable regimes in the world, by cruelly cracking down on a demonstration by Buddhist monks. Over 900 monks took to the streets, calling for freedom and democracy. These people, who are dedicated to peace themselves, found themselves the targets of not only water guns but of brutal beatings. One of them was killed. Four have been put in intensive care. It is time for the people of Burma to join the Buddhist monks and to rise up against their tyrants. It is time for the people in the Burmese Army to rise up and turn their guns against the military regime that has destroyed freedom in their country and led their country into such deprivation and poverty, the regime that is stealing from their own people and giving their country to the Communist Chinese, and it is up to us, the United States, to back up the freedom-loving people of Burma.”
