It can't afford to set a precedent in Burma.

China supports the military junta to keep the oil flowing to China. Russia's major source of income is the oil it sells. Keeping things unsettled in Burma makes the markets nervous and keeps the price of oil higher thsn it would otherwise be. Neither government has ever been democratic in more than appearance, and would treat their own populations the same as the monks, if the people challenged their authority. Tianamen Square ring any bells? Where are all the protestors in the streets of the West? I'm guessing that since it's obvious that the junta will ignore them, it's not worth their time. Besides, it's not the U.S. doing the oppressing. Burma has oil.
