How paradoxical, isn't it? In our era of "freedom", so many decide to remain quiet because of fear of what other people might think.<BR/><BR/>Slavery and exploitation have been called "bringing democracy or trying to help others" (colonial powers in Africa, for instance, until very recently) but since it was Europe exploiting others it was all right.<BR/><BR/>It is ridiculous that super powers which claim to be pro-human rights and democracy are at the same time shaking hands with countries that so blatantly commit horrible abuses against human rights in the name of religion.<BR/><BR/>All that only shows how filthy politics really is, merely a game of convenience where the only ones that ever win are the powerful players.La delirantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05247193369830489441noreply@blogger.com
