The Voice of the Unheard

As Martin Luther King Jr. puts it " A riot is at bottom, the language of the unheard". This is the situation facing the world on large be it in the Arab world, the Russian satellite states, in China, India, Srilanka(Eelam), Africa and every continent.


And now ever since the Americans faced the brunt of the extremism, there debate on the difference between the act of terrorism and freedom struggle; a struggle from oppression, a struggle from political and religious vendetta and a struggle to stand up when every-time you stand you are knocked down by state run terrorism. Its basic sense to separate the two, all that is needed is a little compassion.



Now, What do you do when your adversary is armed and disregards human life and dignity, what do you do when the state stands against you, what do you when you are left with no political or legal representation, what do you do when the constitution is drafted against you. What do you do.


Can you call in the international agencies; who do anything and everything for a political or strategic standpoint, they start and end wars to satisfy their own ends. Or do you think they should give away themselves to their oppressor...Would you do that. What would you do.


" Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable" JFK.
In many a cases, we give them a single choice...but to take up arms...
This is how many silent unheard voices of hope, struggle, neglect, freedom and rights turns violent and bloody.
The solution is with the international community, to stand for humanitarian grounds and Agencies not to budge for political pressure but stand strong on war crimes and crimes against humanity. The young should get involved in international events or at-least engage in debates. The International Media has a larger role to play by enabling the free flow of thoughts and information, because awareness increases the quantum of pressure needed for action to take place.


In conclusion all I want to say is that Inaction is the worst of crimes committed when someone near you  is suffering. You have a Voice; Lets Speak Up for Those Who are Unheard. 
  
I thought off this after I watched this video...
