Over some bogus voter fraud allegations of all things. Who would have thoug................ Oh. Good news is I did see some speculation that the “fence” in d.c. may become a “thing” for a long time. Weird huh?

It seems that the Great reset people got caught pulling their vote fraud scam over there. The only difference between what happened there and what happened here is that their people are not a bunch of stupid sheep like people are here.

Burma is actually quite large country. It used to be quite prosperous, until the military (in 1962) established the socialism there. Like everywhere, socialism was a dismal failure there!
The military was smart enough to cut the country off the rest of the world. By not bothering anybody else, they ruled unbothered, their country basically disappeared from the world news.
Thant did not meant they ruled peacefully, as a matter of fact the whole military rule was a nightmarish civil war among various fractions. But they kept in within the borders.

If the charter gives the military supremacy in deciding disagreements and the right to assert control, then this is not a “coup”...it is the charter functioning as designed.

If the Hildebeast was involved, then there was more to it than just a "democratic" takeover. She is all about socialism, and probably communism as well.

The obsession with Myanmar up to this moment was the treatment of the Rohingya Muslim minority. Noises made all over the place including some by Mike Pompeo the record will show.

The Europeans even more enraged with the former civilian leaders like Aung San Suu Kyi a liberal favorite getting tremendous flak.

She tried to explain to the world that Rohingya Muslims were involved in terrorism but the detractors would have no part of it.

The military running the operations against the Muslims now runs the country again.

One thing to note about the military of Myanmar they are traditionally friendly to China.

How pro-Rohingya Muslim and or anti-China is the Biden Administration?

We’ll have to wait and see which way the winds blow.

That’s something to consider.

I remember when Suu Kyi was the toast of the town and the loons in Norway gave her a Peace Prize, now they say they’re disgusted with her because of the treatment of the muslims. Let’s see how they pull an about face given that she’ll probably be under house arrest again.

The Biden administration has said that it will “take action” if this coup is not reversed.

Yeah?
Take action like what?
Joe Dementia is going to give them a stern lecture and wag his fingers at them?
They are right next to China who will probably back them to the hilt.
I doubt if these tough coup leaders are bothered by the empty rantings of a demented old creep who stole his own elections.

My sources in the Biden administration tell me that Joe is taking this coup in Burma very seriously. He has already ordered all federal agencies to stop buying Burma Shave.

Hilderbeast was heavily involved.
But, as I mentioned before, that was an exception from her terrible term as the SS.
During the 2016 run, it was mentioned as her only success.

Similar to the military taking over here only here they just haven’t announced it.

The military kept all their abuses inside the country. Everybody was OK with it, nobody cared!
Once the Rohingya started to leave, that made the Burma problems suddenly international and suddenly became a Muslim abuse. All other can be abused at infiniteum, but Muslim, that’s different.
