The CIA and US track record in this respect is quite grim but in this specific case you have to look at the alternative. Regardless of whether Suu Kyi is funded by the CIA or not, she stands for principles that are universal and should be implemented everywhere: Free speech, individual rights and a democratic leadership. If she stood for overtly Americanized values or was another form of dictator I would say otherwise but in this singular case I have to say your criticism is misplaced. After all we are talking about replacing a violent military dictatorship here. It's not like the monks are trying to topple a friendly law abiding people loving regime. These people are ruthless killers. Mad Morten A reply to Charles Liu:
