This is an article I found, and deviates from what I usually talk about, but this article has irritated me!! I have to talk about it!
What is wrong with people????????????? Perhaps I look at things in life to simply,but in life some things are right and some things are wrong. And you shouldn't do something wrong just because you might have a valid reason. It's WRONG!!!!! The UN has a memo about the atrocitites commited in Rwanda and Congo. And they won't publish it, because pressure from Washington and Rwanda. The president of Rwanda, Paul Kagame doesn't want it published because while he may not have killed any of these people, he was in the group of people who did, and many people think that he had to know. America doesn't want it published because it could cause tensions between the people in Rwanda. Well by that logic, we should act like the Holocaust in Germany didn't happen because we don't want to cause tensions between Jews and Germans. I mean really!!!!! Does this make any sense? It was perverse world do people live in where they think they can change what has happened? Publish the report or not, we all know that thousands of people were killed, and I'm pretty sure the two groups in Rwanda know that. What is this? Sounds like 1984 to me where we can control what people think or believe just by realasing certain information.
"The dispute immediately raised some pointed questions. Would the United Nations stand its ground, or would it suppress or alter a report about the past for the sake of the present?" Well it looks like the United Nations is going to suppress the report, they failed the people of Rwanda, and then the people of the Congo, and now it looks like they are going to fail all those that lost their lifes in this tragedy. Not really making me like the UN any better, and my opinion of them is pretty low.
I mean really?????!!!!!!! What is wrong with people? You cannot sacrifice what is right and true, for the sake of keeping people happy, or any other reason!!! It's WRONG!!
