According to the AP, "Defense Secretary Robert Gates condemned Myanmar's military government Saturday for being 'deaf and dumb' to global offers of aid to its thousands of cyclone victims, but said the U.S. will not force assistance on the country... With U.S., British and French Navy ships off the coast of Myanmar poised to leave because they have been blocked from delivering assistance to the ravaged country, Gates said the U.S. will not forcefully bring in supplies without permission of the government, and will continue to 'respect the sovereignty' of Myanmar."
Rico says the Burmese were deaf, maybe, but the dumb guys here are the Americans...
