Holocausts, and our lack of action.

When I was first taught about World War II and the holocaust, I remember my teacher, and it was probably in the 3rd or 4th grade, saying something like, "We must never let something like that happen again."

Some people even ask, "Will there ever be another holocaust?"

Now I can't help but wonder, are we blind? Am I failing to live up to my teacher's demands? There are millions of people around the globe being murdered every year in regions like Sudan, and Myanmar. Even places like Chechnya, we, the free world, have completely forgotten about.

The question I ask is, why? When was it decided that a "good" country is one that also an isolationist?

I'm not saying the United States needs to take action alone. I'm asking why Norway, Canada, Belgium, Poland, Sweden, Austria, New Zealand, Australia ... etc, all of which felt the devastating effects of World War II, also haven't taken any action.

We don't need to be every where, but there are people in need. We're failing them.

Re: Holocausts, and our lack of action.

We have our own people to worry about. Schools are shit....people are losing their jobs left and right.....we're involved in two wars, with Iran and North Korea testing our limits....

We have enough problems without adding more.

I have to co-sign that. We certainly have more problems than we can handle.. but it doesn't explain why other countries tend to look the other way.

It's probably a case of "it doesn't effect us, so let's not get involved."

To quote Merle Haggard:

"There's things to be done all over the world, but let's rebuild America first."

Re: Holocausts, and our lack of action.

The US doesnt need to be world wide peace keepers. That what the UN is for. The US has enough issues that we have to deal with. Thats why i appreciate Obama's stance on not getting involved with Iran.

Re: Holocausts, and our lack of action.

Countries really need to learn out how to work out their own shit before the "superpowers" start to get involved. We really don't need to get involved in the Zimbabwe situation. There's always going to be problems somewhere, and we cannot possibly get world peace, because of the ways different countries are run. It's just the way it is.

Re: Holocausts, and our lack of action.

I think we already pissed off enough conservatives by invading Afghanistan and Iraq in the name of "world peace", although many people saw other motives behind it. But a huge portion of Americans even thought getting involved in business that wasn't our's was a bad idea, and I doubt Obama will want to jeopardize his "historical presidency" (which really isn't even historical, considering the first president of the US under the Articles of the Confederation before George Washington, John Hanson, was a quarter African American) with a similar motive Bush used to invade Iraq. The UN is a joke, however. If there was any profit to be made from Zimbabwe or Iran situations, the government would probably give the idea more consideration. But with the economy the way it is now, it wouldn't be in the US's best interests to start shit with more countries. And even if the president wanted to do something about it, it's unlikely he would get the approval of the Senate without a preceding attack on the US.

The UN.......yes, in theory, you're correct. But I think most people realize the UN is about as potent as a cub scout troupe.
