Thousands of Protesters Executed

Thousands?
Thousands of protesters executed in Burma: reports: "Thousands of protesters, including monks, have been executed and their bodies dumped in Burma's jungle, a British newspaper reports. Citing a former intelligence officer for the country's ruling junta, the Daily Mail reported late Monday that security forces were ordered to take part in a massacre of the revered monks. 'Many more people have been killed in recent days than you've heard about. The bodies can be counted in several thousand,' Hla Win, a senior official who defected, told the newspaper from his border hideout as he fled to Thailand. The junta, however, has confirmed only 10 deaths so far."
And why aren't American troops dispatched to protect these freedom-loving voices before they are annihilated?
