Army in Myanmar shoot dead “at least 18 peaceful protesters” - BBC News

All the military junta need do now to avoid all outside criticism would be to start an actual genocide. The UN would refuse to touch it with a ten foot pole after that...

Becoz China pays the UN to say whatever they like to hear

UN always condemned, thousand or million first to day before they will act or sometimes they didnt

@@brbmgmb7945 , I was making a sarcastic reference to the UN's refusal to publicly acknowledge the Rwandan genocide at the time; sorry about that...

Yep the UN has proved itself as unless as the League of Nations was.

@V G china is only strong until its population stays high but now companies are moving to India and Africa since cheap labour is there since chinas cheap labour is getting worn out

@V G you sound like someone who wants this to keep going. If you are, then you belong in the trash

Thanks for your wish 😌 We need help. #Save Myanmar

Thank you so much for encouragement. We write our blood type and phone no on our body to protest.We never give up

We want peace not war but want to defeat cruel ones by military action may be the best way!Pls UN ,US n other powerful countries SOS Myanmar(Burma) urgently!Thanks all of u!!

Correct

They should know this by now that there is plenty and noone cares if UN takes it or not as long as those shameless generals are out of our sights.

They does have oil

The ugly truth 👍

If theres no benefits its better nt to have high hope ..

I’m happy but that’s just me

@@lordsegive3556 happy for other people misery? Yeah.. alright..

You know burma was the richest country before the military dictatorship and had the best university in southeast asia. But after the military dictatorship, it become one of the poorest in the world.

the determination comes from telling ourselves that Dying is a better choice than going back to the past

If you became successful with your revolution, ensure that those military leaders are punished accordingly.

For the very short reign of democracy, 1 or 2 years, there were tons of international businesses flooding in, trying to get their spot inside Myanmar, as they saw this as a golden opportunity as the country develops. The economy was also rising right before the pandemic. But now businesses are leaving after the violence.

@@gz1208 Hard to do when they have all the guns. Truly, Myanmar people have no power, and will have to rely on the UN or other international powers.

yes!

They will stay in power

He wint

Yeah, let's hope that this time they get overthrown and punished. But we know they seldom do. The only country that could help prefers bashing communists and their friends. Myanmar, Spain and Chile are countries devasted by military coups and dictatorships. By the time democracy returns the worst culprits have usually passed on and their cronies have organised impunity for themselves. Now it's happening all over again in Myanmar. Resisting pacifically, like Gandi sometimes did - that doesn't work anymore. The only way to fight dictators is all out, and expecting heavy casualties. Cunning, brave and ruthless resistance leaders are required.

When this is all over?? It's never over. Myanmar is the new North Korea except without the weapons of mass destruction.

:'(

youre so right. absolutely pathetic. they play with us....

What you want them to do then? Invade Myanmar and restore civilian power and spark civil war?

@@AnonymousReader-er4eg stop getting bullied by greedy militants who only have war and power and money in the head. it has to stop one day.

@@hans4651, how do I stop? I'm just a simple citizen

@@AnonymousReader-er4eg You still think the UN should sit back and do nothing whilst the Myanmar military kills protesters? This isn't like somewhere in the middle east where killing a dictator would create a power vacuum that will be filled with an even worse leader- this is a democratic nation that is being held hostage by its own military, because the military leaders were upset that they didn't have a say in the general election and now people are being murdered on the street- Peaceful people who voted in a new leader that hasn't had the chance to take lead because of an ILLEGAL coup. Where's this civil war going to come from? The soldiers are following orders- you take out the chain of command and those soldiers become citizens like everyone else.

@@benardo01 Condemning them is the first step in order to do anything else after like sanctions on those military officials. You have to let people know you are DISPLEASED before any action makes sense.

Who is the " World "where were they when the Rohingya got massacred.. Palestine was colonized by Israel, the Uighurs were massacred by the Chinese governments?

I'm sure the world will stand with them by making some youtube comments or twitter posts. Not sure that's going to help while they're gunned down in the streets though. We could have some good old fashioned American imperialism intervening over there but that seems to get roundly condemned these days, usually by people who pretend they're living under some authoritarian American government.

Just link hands and have a sing song. Oh and disband our own militaries because armies are outdated ideas. That will solve the problem. No action, just strong words. (the lefty liberal way)

@Santiago jr Plz think,the Rohingya were not in the cities.where they live were villages.right now it happened in the cities and is very populated,thus when people are running for their lives,it was easier to save.

@Santiago jr even if the people weren’t agree, would the people be able to stop the junta, and the gang from the killing? The real bad guys here is the dictator! They have killed both of you through Burma history. Please fill me in, if I miss something.

They will pay with their own blood and rightly so. They must not be left alive, otherwise they will selfishly desire power again, in any way shape or form, and this time even more so for revenge than this time. They must all be purged no matter what, and a new military must be built by the people, for the people, led by DEMOCRACY.

@Santiago jr oh fuck off. This’s no time for little shit backtalk here. There is a difference between a minority, even if it was happening, to literally the entire country being under an oppressive military regime openly attacking and killing people on the streets. If you have nothing constructive to say, shut the hell up.

@Santiago jr Islam is not a religion of peace and many dont want it forced on them.

It is the usual thing that the UN usually do. Don't worry, We will do some riot to take down the dictator.

Someone has to intervene , atleast sanction the country for now.

You first.

no one is going to intervene. you know why because its not their damn business. this country has to sort itself out if you guys want to help then hold a demonstration, show your support online or fly to the war zone and help these people out.

@Santiago jr So you wish people their death?

Soldiers are from families who are the poorest of the poor. Most of the protesters are middle class. The poor don't give a fuck about democracy or legitimacy; they just want a job and a living wage. The army and police force offer just that. The same thing goes on in poor countries all around the world.

Say you're given a choice, either you follow orders or it's firing squad for your family back in the village. What would you have done?

The police and soldiers don't give a fuck. All they want is their paycheck and they are told they might get a promotion if they kill protestors so they are just doing it for money and power.

Same that goes through the minds of all police and military personnel

'America is back'!

Please do you know why army overthrew govt? Election was rigged similar to Ghana. You cannot steal votes then expect peace. Do you know what it means for your vote to mean nothing? Do vote thieves deserve peace? Off course UK prefers a client state. When UK ruled other countries, did they offer populace votes?

@@milkoansah-johnson8768 I think you should look further into the news before commenting. There were no election fraud. NLD which is a democracy party won by 83 percent and you can tell by the amount of protestors who they voted for. Burmese people do not want a dictator & they have ruled for the past 50 years making the country very poor and selling the rich to China. So you can’t blame the people for standing up for democracy and fighting for freedom. The military has only ruled for one month & so many ppl have died and cutting off internet. So yea how dare they fight for democracy??

@@winnyaung70 the BBC news report remained silent about election fraud accusation. You would have heard about fraud if you paid attention to neutral news sources as events unfolded on day of coup d'etat.

@@milkoansah-johnson8768 I grew up here Burma so I’m very aware of everything going on. From the start the media focus on election fraud & and now the focus are on violent act. Why are you trying to justify a coup!? So many people are dying to get our democracy back and I know my country history very well. Living under a dictator is terrible and we just got democracy for 5 years. Now the junta has run out of money so they want their power back such as from sanction. Also they let out 23,000 prisoners to hurt the citizens. At night they raid our homes and kidnap people, torture.they also cut out intern at night so people won’t be able to communicate because that’s when they set up fire. They do that so they can tell the world the citizens are the bad people and we the military have to step in to save them. Most of the country hate the military regime and we are just fighting for our leaders to be free and to get our freedoms back. Also media doesn’t cover much on Burma because it is not a well known country.

Keep out of other countries affairs. You get condemned when you try to help then are subjected to never ending terrorist attacks for your trouble. Dont drag the west into affairs which are none of our business.

They did it, quite recently. If I'm not mistaken 2010.
