The article reports that as the Saffron Revolutionaries were being persecuted by the military junta in the streets of Yangon, Burma, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was before the United Nations claiming that the U.S. was keeping an international focus on Burma's brutalities. But reports surfaced that Chevron Corp., which fuels the military regime, once had Rice as a director. Chevron has been linked to the use of slave labor and the killing of villagers in Niger by security forces.
