When To Intervene-Or Not Intervene In Your Neighbor's Business?

OVERVIEW:
Crimes Against Humanity-Non-interference in your neighbors affairs, for fear of harming the relationship between yourselves. Racist Agendas-Religious Agendas & Self-righteousness, are all on the rise globally!

There was a time not too long ago when rational thinkers, good natured people, high moral thinkers, and peace loving nations and peoples, got involved when they saw their friends, neighbors, and fellow humans were being de-humanized, killed en-masse, slaughtered, or enslaved. That was the time when the world behaved like humans are supposed to.

When the world had a soul. A soul that abhorred EVIL of any kind, a soul that did not care for one's political, religions, or ethnic affiliations. But a soul that felt it had to act via the militarily, to halt, or prevent the continuous slaughter or displacement of fellow humans.

This phenomenon showed itself no too distantly during World War-11. Nations took up arms, and collectively assaulted those whom it felt, have an apocalyptic agenda for other humans they felt did not belong on this planet, or other nations they felt had no history, culture, or ethnic relevance. Yes, the NAZI regime was such an EVIL that had to be eradicated.

But something went terribly wrong with these so-called Christian nations and peoples, who took no action when the genocide in Rwanda was being carried out. Even it's African neighbors took no action, because they did not want to intervene in the affairs of their neighbors, which might have caused diplomatic friction between them. So they did absolutely nothing, and thousands of fellow Africans were slaughtered by fellow Africans in that experience.

The same was done in Uganda with Idi Amin (the Dictator), who killed en-masse those he did not care to have live among the chosen peoples of that land, and in keeping with a chosen and ethnic agenda.

Mogadishu today is experiencing the same no-interference by the HYPOCRITICAL OAU (Organization Of African Unity), that is not doing anything to stop the officially mandated and clandestinely planned killing, raping, and displacement of thousands of fellow Africans in that country. With a sparse, ill-prepared and equipped symbolic African Peace Keeping Force, which cannot intervene to arrest, or stop anyone from killing fellow Africans.

Least of all, bring that government or killers to justice. So the killing, raping, starvation, and displacement of thousands, are being allowed to continue in Darfur-Sudan.

In Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe, once called the (most feared African leader) is carrying out the very same things above mentioned, while the world watches, but does NOTHING. The neighbor South Africa, once a part of Zimbabwe, is also just talking ( so they say), to Robert Mugabe, but will not intervene either to stop the starvation, killings, beatings of dissenters or politicians who want change in that rapidly, economically, and morally degrading political system and country.

So the killings, beatings, displacement of thousands who lost their homes, cannot eat food on a regular basis, and is being starved to death, while the world watches, talks about it sometimes, but does nothing to help.

In the USA, these so-called Christian minded peoples are still debating who has the Right to Life, Right to make a choice to keep or not to keep a fetus, who are more moral and who are not, and what is considered Global warming, and what is perceived as God telling all humanity how BAD they have become.

YES, these so-called Christian rightists and leftists, are still having their childish political and religious ramblings, and debates on trifles, while the more important, Moral, and HUMANE issues are being IGNORE on this planet.

Their Moslems religious believers and fanatic followers of a Quran that has thousands of INTERPRETERS, who feel they too have a mandate for believers, and the right to issues FATWAHS or EDICTS when they too feel that Islam is being threatened, or when fellow Moslems fail to comply with their wishes, or when a foreigner or INFEDEL steps on their so-called lands.

Yes, international ignorance has taken on a life of its' own, that hitherto, was only seen as peculiar to certain regions, or peoples. Global Ignorance, Hate, Prejudices, and Murder, seem to be the preferred methods to REASON, Compromise, and healthy discussions today.

I shudder to think that should this trend continue in this manner, REAL ARMAGEDDON will surely happen. With no Racial, Ethnic, or Religious preferences for anyone!
