The Gathering Storm

The Gathering Storm Do what is right ... Right now! What would any American do if best friends had their wives, sisters and daughters gang raped by infantry battalions and then dismembered and burned before their eyes? We are allied with an expanding international network of action-oriented people and organizations doing what is right in such circumstances.  We organize humanitarian outreach, human rights reporting, leader development and critical skills development.   Others are busy helping ethnic groups and underground activists in creative ways, doing what is necessary to support these pro-democracy resistance movements.    This is a rapidly expanding consortium...a network of networks. Reality: The United ...

Democracy – China Style

China's Control of Burma Why is China so invested in Burma? Bottom line:  Burma is China’s front door assuring economic Super Power stature and a New World Order on China's terms. Ratonale:   By first supporting and then controlling Burma's dictator, General Than Shwe, China can gain unrestricted access to the Indian Ocean. This will give them significant economic power. Reality:  Through Burma's land and river routes, China will gain shorter and more secure access to Middle Eastern oil, the African continent's natural resources, and European markets.   This assures huge economic advantage over America and its friends. China will also get naval basing in the Indian Ocean for its expanding navy.    Consider what this means in ...

What is going on here?

There is no “Later.”     The time is Now. The “Spirit of 1776” lives on in the hill tribes of Burma/Myanmar. These are our allies and friends, who, along with their families, died by the tens of thousands for our freedom during WWII, but never got their own freedom. After 65 years, these primitive farmers still fight on today for liberty against a succession of Burmese tyrants. Some of the old soldiers are still out there deep in the mountain jungles of Eastern Burma today protecting their people in the face of overwhelming odds against a modern 400,000-man army.  This is their ...

Follow the Money

Burmese generals and International corporations are working together to make billions of dollars on the backs of innocent people. Why? Ancient hill tribes or “ethnic groups” are sitting right on top of the richest deposits of natural resources in Southeast Asia.   The place is a treasure chest of oil, natural gas, precious metals, gems, uranium, other minerals and hydro power potential.
