Nadine stated in a simple way, I say let the Arabs be Arabs, let the Muslims be Muslims. America, do not impose your system of justice on them.
Ok. Let me get this straight. You think Arabs should be allowed to have any system of justice they come up with, no matter what it is. So, you do NOT believe in universal human rights, at least where Arabs are concerned, or at least the right to run their own affairs trumps every other right, like the right not to be executed on a whim or blown up by suicide bombers.
Saddam certainly came up with his own system of justice, which happened to involved filling mass graves with about 300,000 bodies (and counting). Should we have left him alone to pursue his system of justice, to let Saddam be Saddam?
Yes or No?
Historical question: In the 19th century, the British imposed their sense of justice on the Arabs and stopped (or certainly lessened) the 1000 year old African slave trade, which was founded by Arabs long before the Portuguese joined in. Should this action be praised as moral or condemned as unjustified imperialism? |
