I think Aung San Suu Kyi would disagree, and advocate non-violent action instead:

“Aung San Suu Kyi is a nonviolent pro-democracy activist and leader of the National League for Democracy in Myanmar (Burma), and a noted prisoner of conscience. A Buddhist, Suu Kyi won the Rafto Prize and the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought in 1990 and in 1991 was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her peaceful and non-violent struggle under a military dictatorship.”

I agree , that she would not agree. Yet if not released she will die in her little house there . Ghandiism or Dalai Lamaism does not work , the thugs and tyrants just get a free pass and revel in their power ,uncontested. Look at what followed in Ghandis aftermath in India , and the Buddhists ,for all their noble pacifism, where vastly slaughtered and their religion very nearly eradicated by the early moslem hoards that swept India . The modern Burmese have been like sheep , and they too are imprisoned and randomly slaughtered , and worse.
The Burmese ethnic minorities are treated far worse than any beast . It’s time for the fruit salad chested tin-pot generals in Rangoon to be done away with by any means necessary. Aung San Suu Kyi should be freed , then let her go on with her peaceful path of politics for Burma , once the cancerous growths have been excised .
