I guess it would depend on if you were in the military or a citizen.

Of course it's not fair. More to the point, what can be done to support the monks and other protesters who want freedom and democracy in Burma?

Of course not, but again it is the same old postmodern problem being that it is not about morality so much as it is about desire and power, at least on the part of Junta. Until material desires are lessened and spiritual ones emphasized suffering will continue to pervade on a wide scale. The problem here is how to you convince the few who are abusing the many to cease their behavior and actually assist at being helpful instead of being self serving?
