I believe that the United States has a moral obligation to stand up for those citizens of the world who cannot stand up for themselves. For many years now. the Burmese military junta has committed endless atrocities toward rival factions and ethnic groups inside their borders. Over 1 million of the Burmese people have been forced to relocate from their homes. More than 2.700 villages have been annihilated while junta leaders deny muchneeded humanitarian aid to reach refugees as a result of Cyclone Nargis. Millions have been subjugated into forced labor. what the International Labor Organization calls. and I quote. a modern form of slavery. The junta is one of the few remaining repressive regimes still in power in the 21st century.
