He'd probably have a heart attack. He looked on the verge of death throughout most of the last Rambo movie. Maybe if we dropped 1980's Stallone in... *ponders*

might want to drop some generators first
sorry for the confusion General...
Love is the answer
the problem with the US is that we have stuck our necks out to help others where the end result is that we get the short end of the stick. just look at every major war ( including the iraq war) and every major disaster.
Good on the UN
UN chief: Myanmar will take relief aid
By JOHN HEILPRIN – 4 hours ago
YANGON, Myanmar (AP) — U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Myanmar's junta agreed Friday to allow all aid workers into the country but refused to let U.S., British and French warships dock with relief supplies.
Myanmar's military government did not immediately confirm the agreement and there was no indication how quickly it would be take effect.
"This agreement can produce results. And the implementation will be the key," Ban said at a news conference after returning to Yangon, the country's biggest city, from a two-hour meeting in the capital, Naypyitaw, with Senior Gen. Than Shwe, the country's most powerful figure.
"I believe they will keep and honor their commitment," Ban said.
U.S. State Department spokesman Tom Casey welcomed Ban's announcement but said the U.S. is waiting to see action.
"Seeing is believing," Casey said.
The U.S. will "test" the announcement by trying again to get visas approved for a handful of U.S. development and crisis workers waiting in Thailand, he added.
A senior U.N. official present at the meeting said Than Shwe gave the green light for foreigners to work in the hardest-hit region, the Irrawaddy Delta, which has been virtually off-limits to them.
Ban said, without elaborating, that he was told foreign aid workers would be given "unhindered access to affected areas" and that they would be allowed in regardless of nationality.

Hard to say how many died due to their stubbornness.
