Great post. In fact, there are people who claim that the Armenian Genocide never occured. Or that the jews were not put to death...just worked extrememly hard.
WHile I am open to debate, there are things that are so crazy that it makes no sense.
Now let me point something out. Someone said that there are lots of EVIL people at the top of government. Let me make this clear
Genocide and War are done by the masses.
Regardless of who orders what to do..the INDIVIDUAL has to pick up the gone and kill.
so the fault really lies with the masses.
For example
I am responsible for the BOMBS that are MADE because of my taxes, but I am NOT responsible for the deaths in Iraq..coz the soldier CHOSE to pull the trigger or drop the bomb.
If we start thinking like this we can make a change. If we keep blaming the elite or government who just give the order..we wont get anywhere.
its the basis of WHY the masses, soldiers, etc..end up doing these HORRIBLE acts. they turn and say "I was just taking orders"
the fault lies in that.
coz there is NO WAY one or two ELITE or illuminati or freemasons can KILL millions of people.
Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world.

Dear Supporter,
As the world has witnessed the horrors of genocide in Darfur, you've made a difference by raising your voice to help stop the systematic violence perpetrated on Darfuris.
The situation in Darfur remains dire. But today there is a crisis in Libya that calls us to act swiftly - to call on our government and the international community to stop mass atrocities unfolding before the eyes of the world.
Libya's dictator, Colonel Qaddafi, unleashed security forces armed with machine guns while fighter jets and helicopters fired from above at civilian protesters. Hundreds are confirmed dead and thousands reported wounded as Qaddafi took to the airwaves declaring "I will fight until the last drop of blood."
Tell Ambassador Susan Rice to take immediate steps to push the United Nations Security Council to stop the massacre.
Our staff is meeting with the US Mission to the United Nations about the situation in Libya at the end of this week. We need your voice in the room with us as we call on our government to lead the international community in protecting the people of Libya.
If world leaders feel the heat from you and thousands of others, they still have time to prevent the slaughter of innocent civilians by creating a no-fly zone over Libya, enacting an arms embargo, freezing the assets and placing sanctions on Qaddafi and his henchmen, and referring the likely crimes against humanity to the International Criminal Court.
Failing to act now tempts other strongmen in the region to adopt similar mass violence - a "Libya option" - to quell peaceful demonstrations in their own countries.
The courage of the Libyan people has been inspiring. Top Libyan diplomats around the world have resigned their posts and Libyan fighter pilots have either defected to Malta or crashed their jets rather than fire on their fellow citizens. Jabril Hewadi, the chief radiologist of the Al Jala Hospital in Benghazi called for us to act, "You have to help us. Where is the world? Where is the United Nations?"
Time is short. Act now to stop the Qaddafi regime from expanding the slaughter of its own citizens and we'll deliver your message in New York.
Thank you.
