DrewDawg50, Jim Carrey is doing something he can. What are YOU doing for anyone else aside for yourself?

DrewDawg50 (September 13, 2008 at 5:45 pm)

What is up with Jim Carrey? Who the fuck is he? He is an actor who hasn't even served the country that makes him rich. And he going to talk like he's even involved in the world. What an asshole.

We should drop a few millions guns there and let them duke it out.

It's such a strange thing to see Jim being serious

So the army is badly equiped ??? What that means??? Iraq army also went down in 3 weeks but it has been 5 years and your army has been demolished there by a "bunch of mindless terrorists". But as far far i know your "heroes" will not make to the shore because the navy there has missiles like those that hezbollah used against israel (c-802) probably that is why they didn´t got close. On indonesia they were there the day after!!! Not a week later!

Nikodemos006, read the facts about situations in Burma (Myanmar) before open your month on my native country Burma again, please.

Correction needed in the video: Note that at 44 seconds, as the name of the general who staged a coup d'etat, namely Saw Maung, was mentioned, the picture shown was of the beloved independent leader General Aung San, the father of pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi.
