John Lennon's Imagine - Burma OIC 2012

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRhq-yO1KN8 "Imagine there's no country it isn't hard to do nothing to kill or die for and no religion too -- "Imagine all the people living life in peace "You may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one someday you will join us and the world will live as one." John Lennon. In Burma, Bangkok Post and the Irrawaddy reported that "President Thein Sein gave in to the demands of the demonstrators" whereas it is very likely the Thein Sein government itself instigated the "demonstrations" against setting up an Office of Islamic Co-operation in Burma to monitor the Rohingya Muslim situation. It does not look good - expect the US military delegation to talk toughly to Myanmar gov this week, or at least we hope so. kmk
