THE PLIGHT OF THE BURMESE PEOPLE
As if the Burmese people hadn't enough to contend with by being brutally ruled by a Junta of military criminals, they now have to contend with one of the worst natural disasters ever to occur in the region. With a bit of luck this will spell the end of the general's rule as it appears that they don't have the resources to deal with the disaster. Hopefully, the world's aid agencies will get in there as quickly as possibe and do what they can to alleviate the suffering on the ground.

A large-scale massacre committed by the Vietnamese Communists but much less well-known than the My Lai Massacre."What happened in Hue, physically, can be described with a few quick statistics. A Communist force which eventually reached 12,000 invaded the city the night of the new moon marking the new lunar year, January 30, 1968. It stayed for 26 days and then was driven out by military action.In the wake of this Tet offensive, 5,800 Hue civilians were dead or missing (estimate). It is now known that most of them are dead. The bodies of most have since been found in single and mass graves throughout Thua Thien Province which surrounds this cultural capital of Vietnam."The Viet Cong attacked the South on the most sacred days (Tet, Vietnamese New Year) of Vietnamese culture breaking the "Tet ceasefire agreement". http://www.saigon.com/regions/... http://www.kysales.com/massacr... Music:Hat Tren Nhung Xac Nguoi (Singing above The Dead Bodies) Written by the best Vietnamese songwriter, musician Trinh Cong Son who was a native of Hue. He wrote this song in 1968 to commemorate the victims of the Hue Massacre and to raise awareness of the brutality of war.

I just keep listening to that song over and over. I get goosebumps every time. I love the viet people and their culture. I visited Saigon for a month (Oct.2007) and fell in love with the city and the people. I have lived in the USA for 46 years. I think now with the second part of my life ahead, I will do my self a favor and leave this messhere in the U.S. If only to restore my personal hopes and dreams for mankind.
