Shame on you European citizens!
Is this what the EU, Europe, stands for:
• illegal invasion of another country
• secret prisons around the world
• torture
• reports of USA soldiers putting prisoners into lion cages
• reports of USA supported government forces pealing off prisoners skins, electric shocks, hanging people up by wrists from ceilings….and…and…and….
• Phosphorus (a chemical!) being used as weapon (questionably breaking international law on use of chemical weapons! and! One of the arguments given as reason for invading Iraq in the first place!)
• Lies and deceptions and manipulation of truth
• Dogs used against prisoners
• Humiliation
• Reports of Religious degradation
• Bombing of women and children
• People arrested and held without trail or legal representation
• Persons arrested on unclear, questionable, weak, superficial and fabricated charges
• Illegal, questionable, dishonest use of foreign countries air space
• Human rights of people everywhere, all persons, being corroded and reduced
• Questionable greater powers being given to forces all over the world without sufficient control or checks or reasons under pressure of Bushes anti terrorism
• Citizens rights all over the world brought into question
• More an more cameras
• More and more detention laws
• More and more power for the police
• And….and…..and….
The list goes on and on. And the news does not get better. In fact the worst is probably still to come!
Is this what citizens of Europe want for the EU? How much lower can the EU go? How much longer are EU citizens going to tolerate this? Allowing the politics and actions and decisions of one of our member EU countries to drag us down with them?
Of course we can say it is not us, it’s them, or the USA, or the UK, or the Iraqi’s themselves, or the terrorists, or…..but in our hearts we know that by allowing a member (or member states – Poland is a part of this too) EU state to be there, taking part, means in reality that all EU takes part because we refuse to take positive action against this……
…in fact we even allow it! We support it by our silence and none action!
Of course we can say there is not much we can do about it….but in reality what we are saying is…we do not really want to do something about it…we rather pretend we can’t do anything about it……!
Now it is even possible that one of our member EU states allows secret prisons to be set up in their country!
Is this the democracy we hear so much about? Is this the safety we hear so much about? Is this the security we hear so much about? Is this the kind of world we want? Is this the kind of EU we want?
Is this what the EU citizens want? How low are we prepared to go?
