Very interesting article.
"In the same way that no country has a law against cannibals eating its prime minister, because such an act is unthinkable, international law does not address killers shooting from hospitals, mosques and ambulances, while being protected by their Government or society. International law does not know how to handle someone who sends children to throw stones, stands behind them and shoots with immunity and cannot be arrested because he is sheltered by a Government."
Great article Fred.
Excerpt:
And of course, the OIC, Arab league etc...For example, it is a daily occurrence here that the same people, who finance, arm and dispatch suicide murderers, condemn the act in English in front of western TV cameras, while talking to a world audience, which even partly believes them. Yet, it is also part of the daily routine to hear the same leaders making opposite statements in Arabic to their people...
...But words also work in other ways, more subtle. For example, there is a new game in town: The actual murderer is called "the military wing"; the one who pays him, equips him and sends him is now called "the political wing"; and the head of the operation is called the "spiritual leader". There are numerous other examples of such Orwellian nomenclature, used every day not only by terror chiefs but also by Western media.
If democracy is just free elections, it is likely that the most fanatic regime will be elected, the one whose incitement and fabrications are the most inflammatory. We have seen it already in Algeria and, to a certain extent, in Turkey. It will happen again, if the ground is not prepared very carefully...
Right on target again.
