Through-out the ages human slavery has rendered civilizations to commit abominable atrocities against mankind. Today, there is still too much horrific travesties being committed against man every day all over the world. It is estimated that thousands of children die every day due to loss of family members, becoming orphaned and left to the exposure to the weather, the wildlife, or are raped.
Mans inhumanity to man is all too common today. Whole populations that have been decimated by war and natural disasters have left millions of children vulnerable to be swept up into a world full of horror, neglect, and unmanageable suffering.
Countries such as Haiti and Sudan are prime examples of countries where human trafficking and slavery are rampant through their society. In Haiti where it is legal for individuals to engage in human bondage, all the relief efforts that still are pouring into that country have yet even been most ineffective in eliminating the savage scourge of slavery that is occurring today.
A hypocrisy of nations is occurring when nations continue to flow millions of dollars into a society that openly sanctions human bondage. A moral obligation has to take persistent over monetary concerns.
Only then will societies begin to realize that human bondage and trafficking into slavery only escalates societies collapse into anarchy and chaos.
The children of every nation are the insurances that each nation is preserving it's future. In countries that openly legalize childhood bondage and slavery, their futures are clouded with uncertainty.
If a society fails to provide basic human rights that are essential for all societies to flourish, that society will continue to degenerate creating very unstable environments which will escalate further, disrupting the stability of other nations. Which is now occurring all over the world today.
The United States along with the United Nations in order to protect and preserve nations stability, must initiate a global effort to outlaw any form of human bondage and human trafficking that is so rampant in countries that are destitute.
Any individual, organization or country who engages in the buying and selling of children will be brought to justice before an international court by the United Nations. No longer can the rest of the world sit idle and keep funding countries where those societies opening engage in the oppression of any individuals human rights.
If we fail to act now, the future of all will certainly be clouded with a continued disruption toward establishing any hope of world peace and harmony of nations.
