Postview: Coming to terms with the lessons of history

The human cruelty is indeed present in today's world.
In the context of Afghanistan and other Islamic states,it is a systematic ,Islamic abuse and repression against women that comes to my mind.
If Islamic religion won't change its way,the states that embrace this religion as a part of their constitution will always be "also runs"in the sense of economics as well as culture.

No state can be at its best if a half of its population is down trodden and kept artificially "underfoot" of man.
That does not even consider the matter of unfairness toward the woman.
Intrinsically,woman are equal to man and they were created equal as well.In the sense of evolution of religion,the Islam is at least 400 years behind Christianity.(Not that any religion should be a state religion,and that includes a Humanism)

The Nuremberg trials set the trend for International criminal court at the Hauge partly to deal with the past; but also to send a clear message to the future. Events that happen in Georgia, Moldova; to name two regions are aware of 'The Hauge'. If people are aware that 'international law' has teeth, and evidence of that law at work prevents 'evil deeds'; then chances are the future won't be so full of 'crimes against humanity'. International law comes from democratic debate, and must stand for those murdered acting outside these laws.
Politics has a duty to protect those who demonstrate against governments, hanging demonstrators is dictatorship, and International law has a duty to pursue 'evil' and give 'evil' a fair trial, which is more than those who gave thier lifes protesting ever got.

This article is well written in the sense of balancing the views.
Indoubtedly,it will not be well received by extremists of any kind.

The action and reaction in all the activities of humans is given just as it is in physical science.
It is inevitable and anybody who studied Karl Jung's psychology will concur.
The best we can do is trying for our best personal effort to satisfy our consciences.

The evil exists and it is not just us.

Well making a start in Vitkov where money is avialiable for a crime that is a disgrace to humanity in June 2009 might be a start.
it shows that history has an inbuilt cancer that repeats its mistakes. The lack of human compassion in Vitkov shows that the cultural heratige of cultural and racial abuse is alive as it ever was. The future is here and the Vitkov case shows the cancer of repeat mistakes.
BBC reports on USA detention camps in Afghanistan also show that Iraq prisoner torture was 'brushed under the carpet' and human cruelty is in the present, legislation needs teeth.
