Evil Perpetrated on Children and their Families

There is no greater evil than that perpetrated on the weak, the innocent and defenseless;  children, animals, the mentally ill and women in godforsaken places where they are treated no better than chattels and beasts of burden.

Those with power who impose on children, forced separation from their mothers and fathers, siblings and families must at some point be accounted for. I liken it to war crimes. The other members of the ape family treat their children better than many human apes. And to make matters worse, they justify their actions by claiming it to be ordained by some holy book comprised of superstitious nonsense, human dogma, human designed commandments and created to place in bondage and enslave massive members of the human race.

The hypocrisy and sheer ignorance of these people knows no bounds. All humans at some point in time have been refugees. We all come from somewhere. Every person living outside the Great Rift Valley is a refugee or an immigrant. 

To quote the now infamous line of the uber ignorant Peter Navarro in his wholly unjustified and downright stupid criticism of Justin Trudeau, Canada's prime minister, "there should be a special place in hell for these people".  Unfortunately and contrary to the "holy" books, there is no hell. Even Pope Francis of the rapidly becoming irrelevant Catholic Church reportedly told an Italian journalist hell does not exist. 

Of course in today's world of borders, nationalism, terrorism, need for national security and protectionism, there has to be rules and regulation and a degree of security for established citizens of the various countries around the world. However, this regulation should not be to the detriment of the weak, innocent and defenseless. Shame on all the extreme right or left wing, power hungry, dollar chasing, divisive, narcissistic, misogynistic elite who pander to the whims of the ignorant, the superstitious, the fearful, the bigots and the racists of any religion, belief or creed who refuse to believe we are all descendant from the same common ancestor and we all have a duty as humans to protect the weak and defenseless, particularly children.

Let the children go!!!

AMERICAN DRONES KILLING CHILDREN

The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, based on extensive research in mid-2011, claims that at least 385 civilians were among the dead, including more than 160 children.^[4] In July 2009,Brookings Institution released a report stating that in the United States-led drone attacks in Pakistan, ten civilians died for every militant killed.^[5][6] S. Azmat Hassan, a former ambassador of Pakistan, said in July 2009 that American UAV attacks were turning Pakistani opinion against the United States and that 35 or 40 such attacks only killed 8 or 9 top al-Qaeda operatives.^[7]

Although it may never be known how many civilians have died as a result of U.S. UAV strikes in Pakistan, there are estimates of hundreds or thousands of innocent bystanders who have perished in such attacks.^[8] Pakistani authorities released statistics stating that between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2009, U.S. RQ-1 Predator and RQ-9 Reaper UAV strikes have killed over 700 innocent civilians. The website PakistanBodyCount.Org (by Zeeshan-ul-hassan Usmani, a Fulbright Scholar at the Florida Institute of Technology) shows 1,065 civilian deaths between June 2004 and 30 January 2010 and tallies 103 UAV strikes carried out by the United States.^[9]
