As the world
celebrates Suu Kyi’s landslide victory (again), sanctions are already being
lifted as if all is well within Burma’s borders. Sadly nothing could be further
from the truth as ethnic cleansing and wholesale genocide continues unabated in
Kachinland. It is a hoax and a bold faced lie that Burma is moving in the right
direction but it’s a nice piece of theatrics for those who enjoy melodramatic
fiction. Ask a Kachin and they will tell you their nation is under siege as the
world ignores rape, murder and wholesale genocide. And sadly, Suu Kyi remains
Burma’s most beautiful hostage.
Though
the Kachin or Jinghpaw people are all alone in the world fighting for their
very existence, valiant soldiers continue to counting coup against
insurmountable odds against the fetid Burmese Army. Most recently a team of
*KIA troops along with volunteers from the Peoples Army captured and destroyed
a critically strategic check point at Pangsai (Kyukok) in Shan State.
Unfortunately this crucial victory as well as the growing numbers of internally
displaced Kachin people has gone under the radar of the mainstream media
globally. The use of chemical and biological weapons against Kachin civilians
has also become non issue since the world remains oblivious.
The realities of Burma’s ethnic
cleaning operation continue to elude the press it would appear. But after some
research it is clear as to why crimes against humanity being committed in
Kachinland go underreported or ignored entirely. The parent companies of many
western and international news groups have been and continue to be invested in
Burma. Just remember that major corporations from throughout the world have
always been in Burma siphoning off trillions of dollars in profits from natural
resources while lining the pockets of corrupt dictators from Ne Win to Than
Shwe. Sanctions, what sanctions for they were ignored in the most elaborate
money laundering operation in the world.
The real purpose in forming this
sham civilian government was to sugar-coat existing corporations who violated
impotent sanctions in the first place. Now that modern technology is starving
for rare earth minerals, uranium, gold and other precious commodities
Kachinland is prime real-estate since its rich with these natural resources and
more. Another fetid reality of the war in Kachinland is that corporate
interests of the free world are allowing Burma to do their dirty work in
eliminating the Jinghpaw people from this cornucopia of resources. Rather than
face public scrutiny, especially during election time, they are buying
politicians who favour global expansionism for the sake of investors and the
corporate bottom line, much like they are doing in South America and Africa.
Sadly their hands are red with Kachin blood in spite of their triangulated
support of Kachin genocide through the puppet regime of Thein Sein.
Woefully underestimated by the
western world, the Kachin Independence Army is a disciplined, articulate and
well oiled fighting machine. Their legendary military prowess saved thousands
of allied lives in the Second World War, or did you forget that part? It is
said that one Kachin soldier is equal to 1,000 Burmese soldiers. But in all
reality I would double or triple this calculation for they are achieving the
impossible in spite of the junta’s use of aircraft, biological & chemical
weapons and all the advance technology that is at their disposal. This is more
likened to David and Goliath for this conflict is of biblical proportions. And
it is though absolute faith within their Christian faith they are achieving the
impossible. Miracles upon miracles continue to make themselves known as the
legions of greed and evil continue to be defeated in one bloody battle after
another. In one instance the KIA ceased fire on inept Burmese soldiers who were
obviously forced to do battle with the elite Kachin forces. The Kachin simply could
not ethically fire on children who were forced to the front lines by cowardly
elder Burmese troops. Many Burmese soldiers don’t share the concept of honour
and valour and continue to rape and murder unarmed women and children when
given the chance.
One Jinghpaw told me of how all
Kachin soldiers realize they are facing certain death with overwhelming odds
against them every time they go on a mission. Rather than instilling fear from
this reality they find more raw courage and determination because they are
fighting for their very existence and not just a chunk of real-estate. From
their beloved general on down the fresh recruits they march with their iron
clad belief system and it is proving to be the Kachin’s ultimate secret weapon.
I’ve always contended that absolute faith within one’s dogma is the key to
survival and the KIA is a perfect example of this axiom.
As the secret war in Kachinland
becomes known around the world people from all nations are shocked that this
struggle has gone so long without mainstream notoriety. It is not the people of
these nations who do not care about the Kachin; it’s the corporate owned media
who are ham-strung and disallowed from giving equal coverage of crimes against
humanity that are being perpetrated on innocent human beings in Burma and
Kachinland to this day. Already, the Kachin are finding more and more allies
globally. People are asking questions about their politicians who seem
oblivious to the cries of the Kachin people. Are these politicians in collusion
with fetid and morally bankrupt corporations who are vested in the slaughter of
the Kachin people? Just follow the money.
In any event Burma’s secret war
against the Kachin people is no longer a secret as more people become aware of
the atrocities being committed. Though Suu Kyi stole the headlines by winning
yet another election it is clear there will be questions asked about why the
Kachin issue is not being addressed. Why is it OK to ignore the wholesale
murder of innocent Kachin people? The answer is really quite simply, Suu Kyi is
still a hostage and powerless to do anything or she will finish out her years
under house arrest. The world already betrayed her after she won the 1990
presidential election. The world sat idly by as her supporters were murdered in
Depayin during a failed assassination attempt in May of 2003. She spent most of
her life in confinement after that bloody event. The Saffron Revolution of 2007
was yet another massacre nations did nothing but sit idly by and make spineless
watered down sanctions. She can very well be tossed in jail today and the world
would still do nothing but gawk and make fanciful speeches to their electorates
to look like they are doing something.
After all, the sham constitution
of 2008 still gives the Tatmadaw absolute control no matter how many seats the
NLD holds in parliament. But if you actually paid attention to what Suu Kyi
says, she is not in favour of lifting sanctions no matter what the mainstream
and pro junta advocates purport. And this juncture, I will give her the benefit
of the doubt. But for my Jinghpaw brothers and sister they already see the
handwriting on the wall and realize they must stand alone. Well except for
their Red Indian cousin because I stand with the Jinghpaw and will always stand
with the Jinghpaw. And if they die, I may very well die with them if the
opportunity arises.
LONG LIVE THE JINGHPAW, YOU ARE
NOT ALONE…….
