The disaster in Burma presents the world with perhaps its most serious crisis since the 2004 Asian tsunami. By most estimates, close to 100,000 people are dead. Delays in delivering relief to the victims, the inaccessibility of the area and the poor state of Burma's infrastructure mean that number is sure to rise. With as many as 1 million people still at risk, it is conceivable that the death toll will approach that of the entire number of civilians killed in the genocide in Darfur. So what is the world doing about it? Not much. The military regime that runs Burma initially signaled it would accept outside relief, but has imposed so many conditions on those who would actually deliver it that barely a trickle has made it through. The longer Burma resists offers of help, the more likely it is that the disaster will devolve beyond anyone's control. That's why it's time to consider a more serious option: invading Burma.
