Words fail me.
It's been two weeks since the cyclone struck. At least 100,000 people died. A few million are homeless. The risk of disease is mounting by the day, and the death toll from disease could dwarf that from the cyclone. Yet, the junta is still refusing to let aid workers in. They are happy to accept aid, but not the pesky workers that come with it. There's tons of aid sitting in warehouses ready to be shipped. France and the US have ships carrying tons of aid sitting just outside Burmese waters. The junta however, would rather have a million people die than let the world see just how brutal this regime is.
