When good men do nothing...

Edmund Burke said "all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing" I see no better example of such a thing than this (although "good men" is probably the incorrect terminology to use in this instance). I find it deplorable that any organisation would make such a stupendously idiotic and cowardly decision about the display and exposure of the torture of innocent people. Along with such facts as the 5 permanent members of the UN Security Council (China, Russia, France, USA and the UK) are the largest arms dealers on the planet (get your head around that if you can) just makes me feel that the world our children are coming into is on a downhill tumble at an exceedingly scary pace!

At the risk of sounding negative...we're all f**ked!
