The US Government tends to frown on US citizens providing material support to any side of a civil war that is occurring in a foreign country unless of course such support is part of a CIA sponsored covert aid program. A citizen operating outside the bounds of US policy might be construed as violating US neutrality laws. |

How can one get a heart attack climbing mountains in molehills? It is quite impossible for a mountain to exist in a molehill. This is what my high school grammar teacher called a "mixed metaphor". Remember that? Mixed metaphors are to be avoided as they tend not to make any sense and fail to provide the irony intended. How were your grades in grammar claas? |

If the action violates US law and occured on US soil, the FCC can take action. If not, the foreign government can prosecute if the offender is on their soil, or if not and there is a treaty, ask the US for extradition of the offender, none of which would involve the FCC. The FCC has no jurisdiction over anything that happens on foreign soil. The FCC could take action after the person was convicted by a foreign government under the various character clauses. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |

You should really rethink your position. A couple of people here have attempted to steer you in the right direction. The FCC has no jurisdiction in a foreign land. Dave K8MN |

There have only been 3 or 4 "US Neutrality Acts", all written back in
the 1930's dealing with the Spanish Civil War and the run-up to WWII. None them apply to Burma. |
