Our purpose is to explain why morally we must annihilate the human race.
Articles about humans’ suffer and injustice may sound like a contradiction. It’s not. We don’t hate humans. We have a compassion to their suffer just as much.
We are not after revenge. We are after solutions. Like it or not they are the problem. Like it or not annihilate them is the solution.
As you can see here and probably already know, most humans live an awful life as well. We believe that for them too annihilation is for the best.

There is no contradiction between us calling for you to eliminate the human race and mentioning deadly diseases as a bad thing while doing it. We are trying to describe some of the world's suffer factors, and diseases are one of them, even though they could be a solution too.
Diseases could be the method to actuate the only one solution. but when they are not, they do causes suffer and they make the world a worse place. We hope that the solution will gain as little suffer as possible.
Remember that no matter what the method will be, it will probably cause suffer for one generation and then most of the suffer will be stopped for ever. So even if your idea has a potential of causing a lot of suffer, there is no doubt that it is still worth it. Otherwise suffer will never end. Generation after generation will be born to this decayed world. Most of them only soon to be murdered for a steak, omelet, shoes, a coat, a hat, shampoo, pizza or just for fun.

Billions over billions of creatures suffer most of their time, so no matter what the method will be, even the most violent virus that you can imagine, it will still be nothing compare to the every day world routine.

The purpose of the death figures that we mention in the following articles are of course to emphasis the human race apathy to his members. Most of them don’t agree with us that death is not necessarily a bad thing rather, it depends on the suffer amounts that have been increased or decreased. Death doesn’t stand for its own but only if it affects others, no matter who or where they are.

Like any other action death is a bad thing when it causes an increase in the global suffer amount or a good thing when it reduces it. When a meat eater vivisectionist dies it will probably reduce global suffer, so it is a good a thing. When a vegan animal rights activist dies it will probably increade the global suffer balance therefore a bad thing. So take a good care of yourselves.
Obviously, in many situations it is not as simple as it sounds. It is not always that clear what action will reduce more suffer then increasing it.
Accept of course the action that will reduce the suffer by 99%, annihilation of the human race.

However, from most of human's point of view hunger, water shortage, cholera, aids, malaria etc, are seized as absolute bad things. Still humans, particularly western, are actually killing third world people.
We assume that much those western (probably almost all of them) will vigorously opposed to the only one solution idea. Even though they are directly responsible to the murders of billions every year, for completely different reasons. Not compassion, rational and moral concept of how to eliminate the world suffer, but cupidity, stupidity, ostentation, gluttony, dandyism, ignorant, cheep entertainment, fun and plain cruelty.

These articles emphasis how humans relate to each other.

"Money drives the world around"

Money drives the world nuts!
Humans are persecuted by their own greedy. Money is literally the main goal of life. It is sadly related to every aspect of human's life. The Homo sapiens has become so depended on those mercantile papers. All his big problems related to the lack of it – to poverty.

How many more chances would the human race get? And why? What good has he done to deserve it? He fails again and again, with unbearable, destructive consequence, however he is not "fired"!
Why? Can't you see it doesn’t have to be like this?! The human race doesn’t have to exist.
On the contrary, it is got to be eliminated forever. Fire the human race!

We truly admire all the efforts to change the horrible reality we live in but it is time for disillusionment. Humans will not wake up some day compassionate, carrying, and moral. Even if you believe they someday would, when you are waiting for that dreamlike day, you are actually saying to all the suffering creatures of the world and to the ones, who haven’t even born yet, suffer quietly until the revolution. That’s insane!

Why are you accepting this cruel, full of suffer world? Life is not inevitable. Why should all the world's, so called, weaker layers of society wait till the values of the world reverse? Why should they wait until life become prior to profits? Add the historically and logically based assumption that this desirable order of priorities will never happen and it couldn’t get more obvious than that.

There is enough for everybody but still the gaps between poor and rich are extremely widening.
The human race has never succeeded in managing with himself, not to mention the whole world.
Ironically, if the world was a corporation, by human rules, it would have been fired long ago.

The ones in power will never share it. They won't give up their control. Forget it! Wake up and smell the facts:

Half the world's people live on less than $2 a day. 1.2 billion People live on less than $1 per day. These people do not simply lack financial resources. They struggle each day to keep hunger and disease at bay.

water shortage

Except air, water is probably the most fundamental human commodity.
What is so obvious to you, or at least to the very most of you, pouring yourselves a glass of clean, safe water, will never happen in the lives of more than one billion people.
One in six people have no access to safe water. Over 2.5 billion people are lack access to water for sanitation. Two out of three people will live with a water shortage by 2025. One third will live with absolute water scarcity.
While children in the western world are choosing between Pepsi or Coke-Cola, 2 million children in Asia and Africa die each year from water related diseases.

"Equality for all" is no more than a sarcastic joke. The 450 richest people in the world are holding assets exceeding the combined annual incomes of countries with half of the world's population.

Globally, incomes and consumption differ starkly. Twenty percent of the world's population--mostly in industrial countries--receives 85 percent of the world's income and accounts for 80 percent of consumption, producing two-thirds of all greenhouse gases and 90 percent of ozone- depleting chlorofluorocarbons. This level of consumption is not sustainable at the global level.
If the current global population lived as the richest 20 percent do, consumption of energy would increase 10 times and minerals 200 times. The bottom 20% in the lowest-income countries consumes less than 10%.
A child born in the developed world will have an ecological impact equal to that of more than 30 children born in developing countries.

In 1960, the 20% of the world's people in the richest countries had 30 times the income of the poorest 20% -- today it is over 80 times.

An analysis of long-term trends shows the distance between the richest and poorest countries was about:

Inequality is on the increase. In 1976 Switzerland was 52 times richer than Mozambique; in 1997, it was 508 times richer. Two hundred and fifty years ago, the richest countries were only five times richer than the poorest, and Europe only twice as rich as China or India.

The 15 richest have assets that exceed the total Gross Domestic Product of sub-Saharan Africa. The assets of the 84 richest exceed the (GDP) of China, which has 1.2 billion inhabitants.

The GDP of the poorest 48 nations, which are a quarter of the world's countries, is less than the wealth of the world's three richest people combined.

The richest one-fifth of the world:
Consume 58% of total energy, the poorest fifth less than 4%.
Have 74% of all telephone lines, the poorest fifth 1.5%.
Consume 84% of all paper, the poorest fifth 1.1%.
Own 87% of the world’s vehicle fleet, the poorest fifth less than 1%.

Diseases are not equally distributed among different populations also. By comparing the burden of disease for the poorest billion people in the world, the richest billion people in developing countries, and the richest billion people in all countries, significant differences can be observed. 54% of the poorest billion die of communicable diseases. For the richest billion this percentage is 10 %.

Increasingly, wars are fought in precisely those countries that can least afford them. of more than 150 major conflicts since the second world war, 130 have been fought in the developing world

Each day in the developing world, 30,500 children die from preventable diseases such as diarrhea, acute respiratory infections or malaria. Malnutrition is associated with over half of those deaths.

Malaria, which now affects 45 per cent of the world’s population, is likely to affect 60 per cent by the middle of this century due to global warming.
These diseases are directly related to the devolved world inordinate consumption and the third world debt.

Of the 1,240 new drugs that were licensed between 1975 and 1996, only 13 dealt with the world’s killer diseases that primarily afflict people from tropical and poor countries.
By the late 1990s every day 3,000 children were dying of malaria, 90 per cent of them in Africa. No major pharmaceutical company in 1999 had its own malaria research programme.
Some 200 million people alive in 1998 will eventually develop tuberculosis – exceeding the total number of cases in the entire nineteenth century. In 1998, there was no TB drug in the research pipelines of any major pharmaceutical or biotechnology company.

There is no contradiction between us calling you to eliminate the human race and mentioning deadly diseases while. We are trying to describe some of the world's suffer factors.
Diseases could be the only one solution of course, but when they not they do cause suffer and they make the world a worse place. We hope that the solution will gain as little suffer as possible.
But remember that no matter what the method will be, it will probably cause suffer for one generation and then the suffer will be stopped for ever. So even if your idea has a potential of causing a lot of suffer, there is no doubt that it is still worth it. Otherwise the suffer will never end.
Generation after generation will be born to this decayed world. Most of them only soon to be murdered for a steak, omelet, shoes, a coat, a hat, shampoo, pizza or just for fun. Most of the world’s creatures suffer most of the time. Even if not, nobody should suffer for anybody. Our world is a very sad place. There is too much suffer in it for you not to understand that there is really only one solution.

"In 1981, there were ten thousand people for every doctor in Kenya; by 1994 that ratio had gone up to nearly 22,000 people for every doctor.

Millions of women in developing countries live in poverty. The feminization of poverty is a growing phenomenon. Women are still the poorest of the world's poor, representing 70 percent of the 1.3 billion people who live in absolute poverty. When nearly 900 million women have incomes of less than $1 a day, the association between gender inequality and poverty remains a harrowing reality.
Women work two-thirds of the world's working hours, produce half of the world's food, and yet earn only 10% of the world's income and own less than 1% of the world's property

Lack of food and money is pushing people into risky situations, including young girls and women who resort to sex work or to sexual relationships in order to obtain food and money.

Even more powerless than women are children. Today, four out of 10 Africans live below the poverty line on barely one US dollar a day. At least 30 percent have no access to medical services, while more than 40 percent lack access to safe water.
20% of children in the world do not attend school to grade five. One out of every four African children does not go to school. Sixteen African countries have enrolment rates of less than 60 percent.
In sub-Saharan Africa, more than 40 percent of primary school age children do not even go to school. Many of the children who go to school are not getting basic verbal and quantitative skills.
Literacy rates among adults are as low as 15 percent in some African countries.
One in four adults in the developing world, almost a BILLION people, is illiterate, and the numbers are growing.

Current global military spending is almost trillion dollar annually; more than the total income of the poorest 45% of the global population.

Less than one percent of what the world is spending every year on weapons is needed to put every child into school and yet it didn't happen and it won't happen in the future also. These children are still innocent. They do not deserve to suffer until those priorities will change. If they ever will!

For all too many, life is a continuous struggle against hunger, malnutrition, polluted drinking water, infectious diseases, ignorance, oppression, and violent conflict.

World debt

Sub-Saharan Africa's massive external debt is the single biggest obstacle to the continent's development. The $300 billion which African countries owe to foreign creditors represents a crippling burden which fundamentally hampers progress in every sector.

It is a new form of slavery, as vicious as the slave trade. As such, it is both a cause and a symptom of the structural inequality in the international economic system. At a basic level, the legitimacy of Africa's debts is highly questionable.
Many of the loans, which are being re-paid, were made during the Cold War to repressive regimes and corrupt leaders, who used the money to strengthen their rule or to line their own pockets.
Many more loans were made without attention to the viability of planned projects or to the capacity of the recipient country to make repayments. Very little of the money filtered its way down to make any real difference in the lives of the ordinary African people. But it is ordinary people who suffer now because of the debt - people who were probably not even born when the loans were made.

Demanding that these people and their new governments now pay for the corruption and mismanagement practiced by previous regimes is simply an outrage. These debts are illegitimate, and should be canceled outright.

Africa's debt burden and the zealous pursuit of repayments by international creditors have had severe repercussions in terms of the continent's human development. Forced cutbacks in basic social services have weakened health and education systems and undermined efforts to cope with the AIDS pandemic.
Africa's children are suffering from malnutrition and are being denied the right to education by creditors who are determined to bleed Africa's economies dry. Meanwhile, the world's rich countries continue to ignore the huge debt that they owe to Africa and to the global South more broadly, for centuries of plundering its human and natural resources. Who really owes whom?

The poor countries should not be blamed for this tragedy. They neither conquered nor plundered entire continents for centuries; they did not establish colonialism, or re-established slavery, and, modern imperialism is not of their making. Actually, they have been its victims. Therefore, the responsibility lies with those states that, for obvious historical reasons, enjoy today the benefits of those atrocities. The western world who sucked Africa's blood, won't stop until someone stop him.

Third-world debt is administered by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, which are largely controlled by the G-8 governments. Which are U.S.A, U.K, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and Canada.

Decisions at the World Bank and IMF are made by a vote of the Board of Executive Directors, which represents member countries. voting power at the World Bank and IMF is determined by the level of a nation's financial contribution. Therefore, the United States has roughly 17% of the vote, with the eight other largest industrialized countries in the world, holding a total of 45% of the votes. Because of the scale of its contribution, the United States has always had a dominant voice and has at all times exercised an effective veto. At the same time, developing countries have relatively little power within the institution, which, through the programs and policies they decide to finance, have tremendous impact throughout local economies and societies. Furthermore, the President of the World Bank is by tradition an American, and the IMF President is a European.

In the 1980s, as market prices for export commodities slumped and international interest rates skyrocketed, many African countries found themselves in economic crisis, unable to repay mounting foreign debts. In desperate need of new loans to pay off these debts, they turned to the World Bank and IMF, who were very willing to lend them money, as long as they instituted certain economic policy changes in return. These changes, called "structural adjustment programs", adjusted the economies of borrower countries to suit the interests of the wealthiest players in the global economy. This meant that the economic direction of each country would be planned, monitored, and controlled in Washington.

'Liberal containment' was replaced by laissez-faire capitalism known as the free mark African countries, in need of these loans, had no choice but to accept the conditions attached. Over the past two decades, Africa's debt crisis has worsened, and the failure of World Bank and IMF economic policies has left African countries more dependent than ever on new loans. The World Bank and IMF, now major creditors to African governments, have gained huge control over the running of African economies.

IMF has been using and abusing its recommendations, which have acquired binding force, to liberalize world trade, devalue currencies, deregulate prices, freeze wages, reduce health and education budgets, and privatize State-owned enterprises at whatever cost.

In order to obtain more foreign currency, governments implementing structural adjustment programmes usually have to:

• Spend less on health, education and social services - people pay for them or go without.
• Devalue the national currency, lowering export earnings and increasing import costs.
• Cut back on food subsidies - so prices of essentials can soar in a matter of days.
• Cut jobs and wages for workers in government industries and services.
• Encourage privatization of public industries, including sale to foreign investors.

Take over small subsistence farms for large-scale export crop farming instead of staple foods. So farmers are left with no land to grow their own vegetables and few are employed on the large farms.

The structural adjustment policy package -- including privatization, slashing of government spending, trade liberalization and opening to exploitative foreign investment -- is, at its core, anti-poor.
For poor countries, the IMF and World Bank's emphasis on exports is to a considerable extent an entreaty to exploit cheap labor as a "competitive advantage". But with countries around the world all forced to follow the same strategy, relying on cheap labor becomes a race to the bottom -- with countries forced into a de facto race to the bottom to offer foreign investors the lowest wages and least substantial labor protections. The IMF views labor as just another commodity.

The structural adjustment programmes implemented for over two decades now have not been successful anywhere and have not resolved the problems endemic to the countries of the South. On the contrary, 20 years of experience have shown that these financial policies, far from promoting fair and equitable development, have had a brutal effect on the most vulnerable strata of society, particularly indigenous populations.

Over the past two decades, as part of structural adjustment, the World Bank has forced African governments to reduce government spending on health care. This has resulted in the closure of hundreds of hospitals and clinics, and has left the remaining medical facilities under-staffed and lacking in essential supplies. Under the tutelage of the World Bank and IMF, in the 42 poorest countries in Africa, spending on health care fell by 50% during the 1980s.

The World Bank must take a large degree of responsibility for this situation. It is an institution that represents global minority rule, and it has used its power to exploit African countries for the benefit of its stakeholders, and deny Africa's people the right to health.
Africa alone spends four times more on repaying its debt than it spends on health care. Sub-Saharan Africa spends approximately $13.5 billion per annum repaying debts; the Global AIDS Alliance estimates that this region needs $15 billion to combat HIV/AIDS each year.

Serious environmental destruction began in many Third World countries in the 1970s and 1980s. Easy money was available from industrialised countries for 'development'. Much of it was spent on large dam projects, power plants and charcoal driven industries. These usually didn't help the poor, and destroy the lives of those who don’t need money but still are the poorest creatures of the world - the nonhuman animals.

As debts mounted, what poorer countries needed most was foreign currency to pay back their debts. One easy solution was to suck the earth's resources for the hard cash they brought in, and cut back on environmental conservation programmes.

Third World countries have done this by:
Heavily overusing soil to grow cash crops, often forcing small farmers off their land. Producing more crops on small areas of land, often using chemical fertilizers, and so degrading the soil.
Allowing multinational companies logging rights to their forests, destroying the lifestyle of those who live there. Chopping down forests to make room for beef cattle grazing or crop farming.
It is the world's largest debtors who are chopping down their forests the fastest. Brazil is the world's largest deforester and one of its largest debtors, owing US$112 billion. It is cutting a staggering 50,000 sq km of forest every year.

Between 1992 and 1998, the World Bank Group funded $13.6 billion in oil, gas and coal projects in developing countries. These fossil fuel projects will eventually contribute a burden of carbon emissions (CO2) to the Earth’s atmosphere greater than all current annual global fossil fuel emissions. During this same period, the World Bank spent 25 times more on climate-changing fossil fuels than on renewable power sources, such as wind and solar energy.
Roughly one-fifth of World Bank Group lending is devoted to increasing energy and power supply in developing countries. The World Bank’s energy lending portfolio is dominated by fossil fuels; more than three fourths of its lending is spent on oil, gas and coal or power projects.

In countries such as China, which is projected to double its energy consumption by 2020, the World Bank is ensuring that much of its future power will come from coal, the dirtiest, most carbon intensive of fossil fuels. Since the 1992 Rio Earth Summit, the World Bank has steadily increased its financing of coal-fired power plants in China. While the World Bank’s recent $100 million loan for renewable energy in China is encouraging, it pales next to the Bank’s multi-billion dollar lending for fossil fuel projects.

In Brazil, government spending on environmental programs was cut by two-thirds in order to meet the fiscal targets set by the IMF. In Russia, the budget for protected areas was cut by 40%. In Indonesia, budget cuts have forced officials in Jakarta, one of the world's most polluted cities, to suspend environmental programs. In Nicaragua, the budget of the Ministry of the Environment and Natural Resources was cut by 36% in order to adhere to IMF budget targets.

Moving towards growing such crops also means land is diverted away from meeting local and immediate needs, which also leads to more hunger. Debt's chain reactions and related effects are enormous.

The tobacco industry diverts huge amounts of land from producing food to producing tobacco.
Food has to be imported because rich farmland is being diverted to tobacco production. The land that has been destroyed or degraded to grow tobacco has affects nearby farms. As forests, for example, are cleared to make way for tobacco plantations, then the soil protection it provides, is lost and is more likely to be washed away in heavy rains. This can lead to soil degradation and failing yields. A lot of wood is also needed to cure tobacco leaves.
Tobacco uses up more water, and has more pesticides applied to it; further affecting water supplies, which are also further used by the tobacco industry, recommending the planting of quick growing, but water-thirsty eucalyptus trees. If that is not enough, child labor is a routine in tobacco farms.

As Third World countries struggle to pay back their debts, they have to export as many goods as possible and cut back on imports. This might seem like a good way to earn money. In fact they don't earn as much as they should, because many Third World countries are exporting similar products, flooding the market. So prices have been plummeting over the last few years.

Millions of Americans and Europeans regularly use illegal drugs. Governments across the Western world have poured money into the struggle against drugs. The narcotics market in Europe is expanding rapidly, contributing to social breakdown and violent crime.

But for all their strategies to fight against drug trafficking, no government has come up with a solution which tackles one of the factors making it possible - international debt. Almost all the major drug-producing countries also have high international debts. To repay debts they need hard currency from the sale of commodities - like cocoa, whose value has been falling. Meanwhile, cocaine prices have been rising, so countries turn to the drugs trade - to raise foreign currency and to survive.

FACT: Bolivia is one of the poorest countries in Latin America with the highest child mortality rates on the continent. The country has to spend half of all its (legal) export income on paying its debt. 40% of Bolivia's workforce depends on the drugs trade for a living.

Many Third World countries have become deeply indebted because of high military spending. And as wars escalate, they are less able to repay the money they owe. One estimate suggests that between 1960 and 1987 Third World governments borrowed around 400 billion dollars to fund arms imports from industrial states.

The Third World arms trade has declined after a peak in the late 1980s. Most of the dictators who invested so heavily in arms are no longer in power and today's governments are not buying as many arms as they once did. But the debts are still left to pay.

Debt can also lead to and contribute to war. As countries become poorer because of their debts, one route that people take is violence and protest. As this escalates, it can end in war - and does in many countries of the Third World. As the debt crisis broke in the early 1980s, violence in many indebted countries around the Third World erupted into war or escalated dramatically.

There's always money for death and destruction The world spends more than a trillion dollars on military expenditure. 37% was spent by the US alone and about 5-6% by the other G8 nations. The members of the so-called "Security Council" were the biggest arms dealers of all. In 1999 total arms exports to all countries were about $58 billion. The US was responsible for almost half of these weapons exports. Britain sold 20% and France 12.4%. The UK is among the biggest exporter of arms in the world with Indonesia and Saudi Arabia as its biggest buyers. A report published by the Congressional Research Service at the Library of Congress revealed that in 2000 the rich world sold nearly $36.9 billion to developing countries, with the US alone selling about $18.6 billion of arms to poor countries. In 2000 arms sales to poor countries rose by 8%.

It would cost each citizen of the richest countries $1.70 per person per year to cancel the remaining debts of all African countries which have qualified for debt relief under the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries Initiative.

It would cost each citizen of the richest countries ten dollars per year to fully finance the struggle against HIV/AIDS, TB and Malaria in developing countries.

Another ten dollars from each citizen of the richest countries per year would provide basic education and primary health care to twenty of the poorest countries in Africa.

If the G8 countries cancel World Bank and IMF's debts from heavily indebted poor countries, it would effectively cost each of their citizen's one dollar per year. The neo-liberal model advocated by IMF, the World Bank and the World Trade Organization (WTO) represents an attempt to turn the world into one enormous free-trade zone. The global debt rate has nowadays become a powerful social time bomb.

The ideologies and rules of economic globalization – including free trade, deregulation, privatization, and structural adjustment – have destroyed the livelihoods of millions of people, often leaving them homeless, landless and hungry, while removing their access to even the most basic public services such as health and medical care, education, sanitation, fresh water, public transport, job training and the like.

Here is an example for pure, unadulterated greed. The $350 billion pharmaceutical industry - one of the most profitable and powerful in the world - has teamed up with its allies in the US government to deny millions of people access to affordable, life-saving drugs.

In the United States, people who are infected with the HIV virus can now have their lives extended indefinitely through a combination of drugs known as AIDS cocktails. The cost of these drugs is $10,000 to $15,000 a year - placing them far out of reach of the 33 million people in low-income countries, including 25 million in sub-Saharan Africa, who needs them.

The cost of producing these drugs is a tiny fraction of their price. An Indian generic drug manufacturer, Cipla, recently offered to provide the drugs to governments for $600 and to non-governmental organizations for $350. For millions of people these drugs would become affordable; in the poorer countries, where annual income per person is in this range, they would be affordable with relatively modest foreign aid from the richer countries.

The pharmaceutical companies are adamant. "They are stealing my intellectual property, and I cannot accept that," said a top Merck official.

Following the logic of the globalization of capital, markets and corporations, the neo-liberal formulas imposed by IMF, the World Bank and WTO have only served to make the majority poorer and widen the gulf between rich and poor, weak and powerful, as well as increasing unemployment, extreme poverty, racism and xenophobia, particularly with regard to indigenous people and nonhuman animals.

Slavery

People do know about sweatshops. They know that their comfortable shoes made by modern slaves.
They just don't care.
Modern slavery will end when consumers resists, not the workers who are trapped in poverty and entirely depended on their jobs, any job they can get. People look for bargains or buying because of fashion, filling a self void or out of conformity.

Humans are slaving each other for luxury commodities that have nothing to do with survival.
They are so alienated to natural life, to other species, to other humans and to them selves.
The gaps are too wide and the suffer is too intense.

Nothing could save humans and be saved from humans. The human's tyranny must be stopped.
They will never give it away. There is no point in explanations. The solution is annihilation.

Most people believe slavery is no longer exists, but it is still very much alive. From Khartoum to Calcutta, from Brazil to Bangladesh, men, women, and children live and work as slaves or in slave-like conditions. Not to mention non human animals.

"No-one shall be held in slavery and servitude", Says the universal declaration of human rights. However, there are more slaves in the world today than ever before.

This fact is generally not known. In part, this is because modern-day slavery does not fit our familiar images of shackles, whips, and auctions. Contemporary forms of human bondage include such practices as forced labor, servile marriage, debt bondage, child labor, and forced prostitution. Modern slaves can be concubines, shoes makers, or cane cutters. They might weave carpets; build roads, or clear forests. Though the vast majority is no longer sold at public auction, today's slaves are often no better off than their more familiar predecessors. Indeed, in many cases, their lives are more brutal and hazardous.

The ownership of one human being by another is illegal in every country in the world today, but it doesn't mean slavery has ceased to exist. Rather, it has simply changed its form.

In times past, we had slave-owners. Now we have slaveholders. In both cases, the slave is forced to work by violence or the threat of violence, paid nothing, given only that which keeps him or her able to continue to work, he is not free to leave, and can be killed without significant legal consequence.

A slave is:

• Common characteristics distinguish slavery from other human rights violations. Forced to work -- through mental or physical threat;
• Owned or controlled by an 'employer', usually through mental or physical abuse or threatened abuse.
• Dehumanized, treated as a commodity or bought and sold as 'property'.
• Physically constrained or has restrictions placed on his/her freedom of movement.

Debt bondage (also called bonded labor) - Debt bondage is a situation in which an impoverished individual borrows money and places himself as collateral against the loan. If the individual cannot pay back the loan, he and all of his labor, and often the labor of his family members as well, become the property of the moneylender. All of the slave's labor becomes the property of the slaveholder until the debt is repaid. However, the slave has no way of earning money now that his labor belongs to another. Thus, he has no way of paying back the debt. The amount of money loaned, therefore, becomes the price paid to acquire a slave. In some cases of debt bondage, the debtor's labor is theoretically used to pay off the debt. Yet, often through fraudulent accounting or the charging of very high interest, the lender ensures the debt is never paid off. In such cases, instead of gaining repayment, the lender acquires a slave. Debt bondage is currently the most common form of slavery in the world.

More than 20 million people are held in bonded labor.

Poverty, and people prepared to exploit the desperation of others lies at the heart of bonded labour. Often without land or education, the need for cash just for daily survival forces people to sell their labour in exchange for a lump sum of money or a loan.

Debt bondage in India in which a worker gives up freedom of movement in exchange for the use of a small plot of land and a food allowance. The landlords are usually members of the higher castes while the bonded laborers are usually lower caste and illiterate. Rates of interest can be very high, and the basic arrangement is that the entire worker's labor equals the interest [on the loan] and the principal must be paid in cash.

Humans, repulsively and greedily, exploit the fragile position of immigrants. Migrant labor - some migrating workers, especially domestic workers, are subjected to slavery, particularly children and immigrants who work and live in the same house or premises as their employer. These workers are paid little or nothing for their work, often on grounds that they receive food and lodging. They are cut off from families, society, and any people that may provide protection from their keepers, because they usually cannot speak the language in the country they are taken to, because they usually are brought into the country illegally and face deportation and possible jail time if caught by authorities, and because their keepers employ the threat of violence to keep them in the house (or factory, dormitory, etc.). Cases continue to be uncovered in countries like the United States where servants and agricultural workers are brought into the country from abroad, either legally or illegally, and then treated like slaves.

Countries affected by war or civil conflict may make convicted prisoners perform forced labor or compulsory military service. Those enslaved are often the weak or defenseless such as refugees, members of ethnic minorities, women or children. Humans will not pass any given situation including wares, to exploit others for their benefits. They also will not skip exploiting vulnerable people like women and children.

Poverty, gender-based discrimination in employment and a history of sexual and physical violence are all factors that can make women and children vulnerable to sexual exploitation. Some are abducted and sold, some are deceived into consenting by the promise of a better life or a better job, and some feel that entrusting themselves to traffickers is the only economically viable option. Regardless of the route of entry, all women and children trafficked for sexual exploitation suffers extremely.

Right now somewhere in the world, a girl is being forced to have sex for money that she won't even get.

Trafficking is slavery because traffickers use violence, threats, and other forms of coercion to force their victims to work against their will. This includes controlling their freedom of movement, where and when they will work and what pay, if any, they will receive.

Statistics about trafficking are unreliable for a number of reasons, including the clandestine nature of the activity. However, rough estimates suggest that between 700,000 to 2 million women are trafficked across international borders annually. Adding domestic trafficking would bring the total much higher, to perhaps 4 million persons per year.

Some trafficking victims are physically imprisoned by locks, bars, or guards. Those with apparent freedom to leave are controlled by other means. Physical, sexual, and psychological violence are employed against them effectively. Former trafficking victims report being beaten, in some cases with iron rods, for refusing clients, attempting escape, or “causing trouble". Others have reported being drugged or forced to consume alcohol, some to the extent that they became addicted.

Trafficked migrants are vulnerable because of their irregular legal status, and may face deportation. They often cannot access legal assistance and medical care, and remain dependent on their agents and employers.

Children who have been trafficked across borders and 'rescued' are often treated as criminals. They are considered to be in breach of the law in those countries, which criminalise prostitution, and they are considered to be in breach of immigration laws for having entered a country illegally. They may be subject to imprisonment or 'rehabilitation' before being sent back to their country of origin. There is also the possibility that once in their country of origin, they are again punished, this time according to the laws and policies of their own countries for emigrating illegally.

Children are even more vulnerable to sexually transmitted diseases than adults, including HIV infection and AIDS, as their body tissues are more easily damaged. Children who are exploited are often not in a position to negotiate safe sex; furthermore, many lack access to education about AIDS and safe sex practices. Psychological impacts of sexual exploitation are harder to measure, but no less painful for the child. Many children who have been exploited report feelings of shame, guilt, and low self-esteem. Some children do not believe they are worthy of rescue. Others create a different reality and say that prostitution was their choice - that they want to help support their family or that their pimp is really their boyfriend who loves them.

Some suffer from stigmatization or the knowledge that they were betrayed by someone that they had trusted. Others suffer from nightmares, sleeplessness, hopelessness and depression - akin to the feelings exhibited in victims of torture. To cope, some children attempt suicide or turn to substance abuse.

In some countries, sexual exploitation of children is thinly disguised as religious practice. In Ghana, young girls, usually under the age of 10, are given to the local fetish shrine to atone for offenses allegedly committed by a member of the girl's family. In this traditional practice, known as Trokosi, a girl becomes the property of the fetish priest and must provide sexual services as well as other labour for him.

Servile or forced marriage - where young girls or women have no rights to refuse being entered into a marriage. In "servile marriage", a young woman is often given in exchange for money or other payment, and she can sometimes be inherited by another person if her husband dies, or even sold to someone else. Girls as young as 10, married without a choice and unable to give informed consent, are forced into lives of domestic servitude and often-physical violence.

What hope does the world have if in 2003, even women cannot make decisions about their lives? For the nonhuman animals, it will never arrive.

Worldwide, about 246 million children, ages 5 to 17, are involved in child labour - about 1 out of every 6 children in the world.
Nearly three-quarters of the world's child labourers, about 180 million children, are exposed to the worst forms of child labor - work that is hazardous for children. Some 110 million children in hazardous work are under age 15. Some estimated 8.4 million children are trapped in the most abhorrent forms of child labour - slavery, trafficking, debt bondage, prostitution, pornography, and other such activities.

Of nearly 250 million children engaged in child labor around the world, the vast majority – 70 percent or some 170 million – are working in agriculture. Child agricultural workers frequently work for long hours in scorching heat, haul heavy loads of produce, are exposed to toxic pesticides, and suffer high rates of injury from sharp knives and other dangerous tools. Their work is grueling and harsh, and violates their rights to health, education, and protection from work that is hazardous or exploitative.

Child agricultural workers often begin work at early ages, and may work twelve or more hours a day. During peak harvest season, they sometimes worked fourteen hours or more. Children may begin working as early as 4 a.m., and may spend two hours or more each morning and evening traveling to the fields where they work.

One of the greatest threats to the health of child agricultural workers is exposure to pesticides. In Ecuador, Egypt, and the United States, children reported working in freshly sprayed fields, and even working in fields while they were being sprayed. Children interviewed reported symptoms of exposure including headaches, fever, dizziness, nausea, rashes and diarrhea. In severe cases, pesticide exposure can lead to convulsions, coma and death. Long-term effects also include cancer, brain damage, sterility or decreased fertility, and birth defects.

Working while fungicides were sprayed from airplanes flying overhead, they try to protect themselves by hiding under banana leaves, covering their faces with their shirts, or placing banana cartons on their heads.

The coca industry is known to be one of the most violent slavery industries.
"The beatings were a part of my life," Aly Diabate, a freed slave, told reporters. "Anytime they loaded you with bags (of cocoa beans) and you fell while carrying them, nobody helped you. Instead they beat you and beat you until you picked it up again".

A reporter who visited the coca fields said: "there wasn’t an inch of the coca slave's body which wasn’t scarred".

Their wounds became infected and they had to rely on the maggots feeding on their flesh to clean the wounds and save them from gangrene. The brutality, the isolation, the hunger and exhaustion, all combined to break the spirit and will of the captives, locking them into years of slavery.

Nothing has changed. Most things got worse. Slavery does not only exist but it is much more widespread than ever.

We don’t see how the conventional way could stop it.
Thousands of years of failures are more than enough.

The saddest fact is that the world isn’t getting any better, On the contrary. Take for example the second essential element after air – water. Not only that today one person in six across the world has no access to safe water, and one in two, half of the world population have no access to water for sanitation. The simple act of washing hands with soap and water, such a basic and nonchalant act for all of you, will never happen in the lives of 2.5 billion people.

Although 2.5 million People die each year from water related diseases, a child dies from absence of safe drinking water Every 15 seconds. These are the priorities: It is estimated that the funds required to provide universal access to clean water and sanitation would require 50 billion dollars per year. Currently one fifth of this amount is spent each year on water system. World military spending is about a trillion dollars. Comparative costs: In Europe, $11 billion is spent each year on ice cream; $105 billion is spent annually on alcoholic drinks, twice the amount required to ensure water, sanitation and hygiene for all.

Poor people in the developing world pay on average 12 times more per liter of water than fellow citizens connected to municipal system. these poverty-stricken people use less water, most of it is dirty and contaminated. Millions of people have no chance but to drink water that kills them. In some slums surrounding the cities of developing countries, families often have to spend 10% of their income to buy water for household needs. The population of the Kibeira slum in Nairobi, Kenya pay up to five times the price for a litre of water than the average American citizen. "And justice for all… yea right."

Things are getting worse: The balance between humanity's demands for fresh water and the quantity available is already precarious. Over the past 70 years, global population has tripled, from 2 to 6.1 billion, and water use has grown six-fold. The world’s population is projected to increase to 9.3 billion by 2050.
By the year 2025, two-thirds of the world's population will be living in conditions of serious water shortage and one-third will be living in conditions of absolute water scarcity.
Two billion people get less than the 50 liters of water a day considered necessary to meet basic drinking, sanitation and cooking needs. In 2050, 4 billion people might be unable to meet the requirement.
By 2015, nearly 3 billion people – 40% of the projected world population-are expected to live in countries that find it difficult or impossible to mobilize enough water to satisfy the food, industrial, and domestic needs of their citizens.

To pace population growth, 70 percent of fresh water will have to be harnessed by 2025. If all the world’s people consume water in 2025 at the rate now enjoyed by residents of developed nations, 90% of all fresh water will be used in 2025. That will leave only 10% for all living creatures.
They spit on other humans and on their future, so what are the chances that they would care for non-human animals dying from thirst?
Conflicts over fresh water, both political and violent, could erupt in coming decades as populations grow and more countries face water stress and outright scarcity.

You can prevent it and any other suffer. There is only one solution.

Humans are so indifferent to the fate of others. What doesn’t directly affect them doesn’t worth any attention. Observe the forecast and situation:
Water covers about two-thirds of the earth's surface, admittedly, but most is too salty for use. only 2.5% of the world’s water is not salty, and two-thirds of that is lacked up in the icecaps and glaciers.
Of what is left, about 20% is in remote areas, and much of the rest arrives at the wrong time and place, as monsoons and floods.
Humans have less than 0.08% of all the earth's water available for their use. Yet, over the next two decades our use is estimated to increase by about 40%. Do you think that if they'll hear this estimation, they stop fill their private pools? Stop taking a long bubble bat? Stop being repulsive egoists? Forget it!

As population, industrialization, and pollution grow, the worldwide renewable water supply per person has fallen 60%, but the ones who don’t feel it don’t care, As long as they got a fresh water supply, As long as they can wash their "precious" cars everything is "cool".

The water distribution is an outrage: 12% of the world’s population uses 85% of its water. These 12% don’t live in the third world.

Today Asia has approximately 60% of the world’s people but only 36% of the world's renewable freshwater.

300 million people in Africa don’t have access to safe drinking water. 350 million don’t have access to sanitation. In the rural areas of Africa more than half of the people don’t have access to either of them.

700 million Asians don’t have access to safe water and 2 billion don’t have access to sanitation. 70% of Asia rural areas don’t have access to sanitation.

Half of the rural Latin American areas don’t have access to sanitation. 40% don’t have access to safe water.

The average person in the United Kingdom uses 135 litres of water every day. One flush of your toilet uses as much water as the average person in the developing world uses for a whole day’s washing, cleaning, cooking and drinking.

Vast regional disparities exist in per capita water use. in africa, household water use averages 47 liters per person per day, while in asia, the average is closer to 95 liters. in contrast, residents of the united kingdom average 334 liters per person per day. The United States leads the world at an estimated 578 liters per person per day.

In the United States each person uses more than of 185 gallons of water each day. In Senegal, one of lowest per capita users of water, each person uses 7.6 gallons a day, or one-tenth of an American’s use per day.

At the same time, governments are signing away their control over domestic water supplies to trade agreements such as the North American Free Trade Agreement, its expected successor, the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA), and the World Trade Organization. These global trade institutions effectively give transnational corporations unprecedented access to the freshwater resources of signatory countries. Already, corporations have started to sue governments in order to gain access to domestic water sources and, armed with the protection of these international trade agreements, are setting their sights on the commercialization of water.

Water is listed as a "good" in the WTO and NAFTA, and as an "investment" in NAFTA. It is to be included as a "service" in the upcoming WTO services negotiations (the General Agreement on Trade in Services) and in the FTAA. Under the "National Treatment" provisions of NAFTA and the GATS, signatory governments who privatize municipal water services will be obliged to Permit competitive bids from transnational water-service corporations. Similarly, once a permit is granted to a domestic company to export water for commercial purposes, foreign corporations will have the right to set up operations in the host country.

These are some examples of water wastes:

22 liters each time a toilet is flushed

150,00 liters to produce a ton of steel

750,000 liters to produce a ton of newsprint

Humans are so irresponsible, so narrow minded, they see and care only for the moment.

Although only about one-third of the world's potential fresh water can be used, the pollution increases and the amount of usable water decrease.

In developing countries, 90% to 95% of all sewage and 70% of all industrial wasters are dumped un-treated into surface water. In developed countries, chemical runoff and acid rain pollute streams and force investment in billions of dollars for water treatment.

Poor are usually the first to suffer from pollution as they are often forced to use water from downstream sources and do not have the access to adequate sanitation that the rich enjoy.

Inadequate water supplies are both a cause and an effect of poverty. Invariably those without adequate and affordable water supplies are the poorest in the society. The effects of inadequate water supply - disease, time and energy expended in daily collection, high unit costs, etc. - exacerbate the poverty trap.

While children in the western world are choosing between Pepsi and coke-cola, millions of children in the third world, suffer from diseases caused by lack of safe drinking water!

Similar inequities in access to safe water, especially in rural areas, force women in developing countries to spend hours every day fetching water, causing an enormous drain on their energy, productive potential and health.

One billion people, mostly, women must make a three hour journey on foot each day just to obtain their drinking water.

On average, women in the developing world walk six kilometers each day to collect water, carrying the equivalent of a suitcase.

If she carries only enough water for her family (husband, mother, five children) to survive each day, she would need to fetch about 40 liters, but to keep them all clean and healthy she would need to fetch 200 liters of water every day.

As well as traveling such long distances, the women have to wait in line for their turn to collect water. Waiting time can add up to five hours on the journey time. Some traditional water sources are almost dry for several months of the year and it can take up to an hour for one woman to fill her bucket. To avoid such long waits many women get up in the middle of the night to walk to the water source when there is no queue.
Traditional wells are often little more than waterholes dug deeper and deeper as the dry season progresses. They can be very difficult to reach; their sides are steep and sometimes the wells collapse killing women and children. Paths are narrow and slippery and many accidents occur. Imagine the frustration of walking three miles toward home with a heavy water pot, falling and losing all the water so carefully collected, and probably breaking the pot as well.
Water containers usually hold about 20 liters of water which weigh 20 kilograms, the same as the baggage allowance on most airlines. Constant carrying of such heavy weights, commonly on the head, back or hip has severe health implications. Backache and joint pains are common and in extreme cases curved spines and pelvic deformities can result, creating complications in childbirth. Pregnant women sometimes keep on carrying water until the day they give birth.

Children throughout the world suffer many serious problems as a result of unclean and scarce water. Their health and education are directly affected by the water their families need to drink, cook and wash with everyday.
In many countries, children, particularly girls, are responsible for the collection of water. Girls as young as 10 years-old may take the main responsibility for drawing and carrying the family’s water. The size of water container may vary according to the age of the child, but each liter of water carried weighs one kilogram, the equivalent of a 1lb bag of sugar, and may need to be carried up to three or four miles. Carrying such heavy weights is damaging in the long-term for adult women, for girls there are even more serious implications given their physical immaturity. In particular, there can be damage to the head, neck and spine. In extreme cases deformity of the spine can lead to problems in pregnancy and childbirth. In some cultures it is customary for girls to be married as young as 10-years-old. They go to live with their husband’s family and are expected to perform many domestic tasks for their parents-in-law as part of learning their future housekeeping duties. Collecting water is one of their most important jobs and they may need to make several trips in a day.
Collecting water is not only physically stressful but extremely time consuming. One of the most serious effects is that girls are often not able to attend school, which is their only hope.

Lack of access to safe water supply and sanitation results in hundreds of millions of cases of water related diseases, and more than 5 million deaths, every year.

Water contaminated by human, chemical or industrial wastes can cause a variety of communicable diseases through ingestion or physical contact:
1 Water-borne diseases: caused by the ingestion of water contaminated by human or animal faeces or urine containing pathogenic bacteria or viruses; include cholera, typhoid, amoebic and bacillary dysentery and other diarrhoeal diseases.
Water-washed diseases: caused by poor personal hygiene and skin or eye contact with contaminated water; include scabies, trachoma and flea, lice and tick-borne diseases. Water-based diseases: caused by parasites found in intermediate organisms living in water; include dracunculiasis, schistosomiasis and other helminths.

Water-related diseases: caused by insect vectors which breed in water; include dengue, filariasis, malaria, onchocerciasis, trypanosomiasis and yellow fever.

There are approximately 4 billion cases of diarrhoea each year cause 2.2 million deaths, mostly among children under the age of five.
Intestinal worms infect about 10% of the population of the developing world. These can be controlled through better sanitation, hygiene and water supply. Intestinal parasitic infections can lead to malnutrition, anemia and retarded growth, depending upon the severity of the infection.

It is estimated that 6 million people are blind from trachoma and the population at risk from this disease is approximately 500 million.
300 million people suffer from malaria.

It is estimated that nearly 28 million people suffer from chronic fluorosis primarily due to exposure to fluoride in drinking-water, in China alone.

20% of persons with Japanese encephalitis with clinical symptoms die.
35% have permanent brain damage.

Of the 200 million people in the world infected with the worm that causes schistosomiasis, some 20 million suffer severe consequences, such as renal failure, bladder cancer, and liver fibrosis. The disease is still found in 74 countries.
80% of transmission takes place in Africa south of the Sahara. .88million are children under fifteen years of age.

Two billion people are at risk from malaria alone, with 100 million people affected at any time.
Malaria causes at least 300 million cases of acute illness each year. About 90% of the annual global rate of deaths from malaria occurs in Africa south of the Sahara.
The disease costs Africa more than $12 million annually and slows economic growth in African countries by 1.3% a year.

At any given time perhaps one-half of all peoples in the developing world are suffering from one or more of the six main diseases associated with water supply and sanitation (diarrhoea, ascaris, dracunculiasis, hookworm, schistosomiasis and trachoma).

Although these diseases are about 20% of global diseases burden, they receive less than 1% of total public and private funds for health research.

Why should all the suffering creatures wait for you to figure out how to change those priorities?
Stop trying to change the priorities, it’s useless!
Start thinking how to get rid of the decision makers.

World hunger

More than a billion people experience the gnawing pain of perpetual hunger.
Each year 40 million people die from hunger and hunger-related diseases.
About 24,000 people die from the effects of hunger each day.
That's about one person every 3.5seconds.

The purpose of these death figures is of course to emphasis the human race apathy to his members. Most of them don’t agree with us that death is not necessarily a bad thing. It depends on the suffer amounts that have been increased or decreased. Death doesn’t stand for his own but only if it affects the surroundings, no matter who or where they are.

Killing humans sporadically is pointless and not at all efficient. Focus your thinking, energy, time and money on the ultimate solution. Killing a few humans is a waste of the time.
Don’t forget it's a rational and moral solution, not a revenge campaign.
Don’t do it because of anger and rage. Do it to stop the suffer.

Half of men, women, and children in southern Africa are suffering from chronic malnutrition.
In Latin America, nearly one out of every eight people goes to bed hungry each night. In Asia and the Pacific, 28 percent of the people border on starvation.
More than two billion people have lack of essential micronutrients, and hundreds of millions suffer from diseases caused by unsafe food or by unbalanced food intake.

Globally, children who are poorly nourished suffer up to 160 days of illness each year. Malnutrition magnifies the effect of every disease.
An estimated 174 million under-five children in the developing world are malnourished as indicated by low weight for age, and 230 million are stunted. Malnutrition results in poor physical and cognitive development as well as lower resistance to illness.

One in four children worldwide will be malnourished or underweight for his or her age in the year 2020, because of a growing food gap in developing countries.

Hunger, and insecurity about whether a family will be able to obtain enough food to avoid hunger, also has an emotional impact on children and their parents. Anxiety, negative feelings about self-worth and hostility towards the outside world can result from chronic hunger and food insecurity.

Pregnant women, who are undernourished, are more likely to have low-birthweight babies. These infants are more likely to suffer delays in their development and are more likely to have behavior and learning problems later in life. Over 1 million children die each year, and millions more suffer impaired development because they are not adequately breast fed.

Worldwide, there are 5.7 million people who were born cretins because their mothers were iodine-deficient when expecting them. An estimated 50 million people suffer some impairment due to lack of iodine. Iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) jeopardize children’s mental health – often their very lives. Serious iodine deficiency during pregnancy may result in stillbirths, abortions, and congenital abnormalities such as cretinism, a grave, irreversible form of mental retardation that affects people living in iodine-deficient areas of Africa and Asia. IDD also causes mental impairment that lowers intellectual prowess at home, at school, and at work. IDD affects over 740 million people, 13 percent of the world’s population. Fifty million people have some degree of mental impairment caused by IDD.

Two billion people—over 30 percent of the world’s population—are anemic, mainly due to iron deficiency, and, in developing countries, frequently exacerbated by malaria and worm infections. For children, health consequences include premature birth, low birth weight, infections, and elevated risk of death. Later, physical and cognitive developments are impaired, resulting in lowered school performance. For pregnant women, anemia contributes to 20 percent of all maternal deaths.

Over 250 million children under five suffer from vitamin A deficiency. In developing countries, vitamin A deficiency permanently blinds some 250,000 children a year. It also increases the severity of childhood illnesses, contributing to 20%-30% of the deaths of under-fives.

More than half of the world's disease burden-measured in "years of healthy life lost"-is attributable to hunger, overeating, and widespread vitamin and mineral deficiencies.

Seven out of ten of the world’s hungry are women and children.
Each year 15 million children under age 5 die - 1/4 of all the world's deaths. Up to half of those who survive, suffer from malnutrition severe enough to leave them with non-reversible damage.
One child dies every seven seconds from hunger and related causes.

Theoretically, every country in the world has the potential of growing sufficient food on a sustainable basis. The minimum requirement for caloric intake per person per day is 2,350. Worldwide, there are 2,800 calories available per person per day. 54 countries fall below that requirement, they do not produce enough food to feed their populations nor can they afford to import the necessary commodities to make up the gap. Most of these countries are in sub-Saharan Africa.

In most countries with widespread hunger, a few large landowners control nearly all agricultural production sometimes with disastrous results. Much of the rich farmlands remain unused, or one harvest is gathered per year when there could be two or three. Land is used for "cash crops" such as cotton or coffee instead of food. To the owners, land becomes an "investment" not a source of food for the people who live on it.

One person in 5 in developing countries is undernourished; one in 5 in major industrialized countries is overweight or obese.
Each child born in the industrialized world will consume 20 to 40 times as much as a child in the developing world in his or her lifetime. The very small population increase in the rich world puts 8 times as much pressure on world resources as larger population increases in the poor world.

Hunger is an effect of poverty and poverty is largely a political issue. While manifesting itself as an economic issue, conditions causing poverty are political.

Put bluntly, those with the most money command the most resources, whilst those with little or no money go hungry. This inevitably leads to a situation whereby some sections of humanity arguably have too much and other sections little or nothing. Indeed, globally the richest 20 per cent of humanity controls around 85 per cent of all wealth, whilst the poorest 20 per cent control only 1.5 per cent.

Poverty is the principal cause of hunger. Half of the people in the world live on less than $2 per day. 1.2 billion Poor people in developing countries live on $1 a day or less. Of them, 830 million suffer from chronic hunger, which means that their daily intake of calories is insufficient for them to lead active and healthy lives.

World hunger exists because: (1) colonialism, and later subtle monopoly capitalism, dispossessed hundreds of millions of people from their land; the current owners are the new plantation managers producing for the mother countries; (2) the low-paid undeveloped countries sell to the highly paid developed countries because there is no local market [because the low-paid people do not have enough to pay] ... and (3) the current Third World land owners, producing for the First World, are appendages to the industrialized world, stripping all natural wealth from the land to produce food, lumber, and other products for wealthy nations.

To understand why people go hungry you must stop thinking about food as something farmers grow for others to eat, and begin thinking about it as something companies produce for other people to buy.
Food is a commodity…
Many of the best agricultural lands in the world are used to grow commodities such as cotton, sisal, tea, tobacco, sugar cane, and cocoa, items that are non-food products or are marginally nutritious, but for which there is a large market.
The problem, of course, is that people who don't have enough money to buy food simply don't count in the food equation.
In other words, if you don't have the money to buy food, no one is going to grow it for you.
Put it in another way, you would not expect The Gap company to manufacture clothes, Adidas to manufacture sneakers, or IBM to provide computers for those people earning $1.00 a day or less; likewise, you would not expect ADM ("Supermarket to the World") to produce food for them.
What this means is that ending hunger requires doing away with poverty, or, at the very least, ensuring that people have enough money or the means to acquire it, to buy, and hence create a market demand for food.

Poor people in the Third World market pay food prices that are determined by what people in rich countries are willing to pay. This is direct cause of hunger in many poor countries. On the other hand, people in rich countries are unaware that their own consumption is creating suction force in the world food market, diverting food from meeting the needs of the very people who have grown it.
Austerity programmes inspired by the International Monetary Fund have had little effect in cuffing waste and bureaucracy but have hurt the most vulnerable people. During the famine of 1985 eastern Sudan produced 800,000 tons of grain. But huge debt commitments prevented the cash-strapped Government from buying the surplus for those starving in other regions. Discipline of any type is usually applied first to the powerless who lack the political influence to defend themselves.
That is the way these people fight among themselves.

Famine-stricken countries often export food while their own people are starving. During the famine of 1984-85, which killed a million people, Ethiopia exported green beans to the UK. Despite the continued threat of famine in 1989 Sudan sold 400,000 tons of sorghum to the European Community for animal feed. The rulers of such countries put a higher priority on oiling the state machinery with foreign exchange than on feeding the hungry. Much of the best land in Ethiopia is devoted to growing coffee (80 per cent of exports) and in Sudan to growing cotton (50 per cent of exports).

Increasingly, countries like India are polluting their air, earth, and water to grow products for the Western market instead of growing food to feed their own people. Prime agricultural lands are being poisoned to meet the needs of the consumers in the West, and the money the consumers spend does not reach the majority of the poor workers in the Third World.
So everyone lose. Billions of non-human animals are systematically eliminated from their homes. Deprived of any land, food and water, they actually murdered by farmers. The farmers, forced by western corporation and governments to raise cash crops (tea, sugar, cocoa, cotton etc) instead of food hence starving, actually murdered by apathetic consumers for a cup of coffee or a chocolate snack.
Finally, the westerns suffer from variety of obese diseases, murdered by their own gluttony.

The irony of the present system is that millions of wealthy consumers in the first world counties are dying from diseases of affluence like heart attacks, strokes, diabetes and cancer, while the poor in the third world are dying from diseases of poverty brought on by the denial of access to land to grow food grain for their families.

In sub-Saharan Africa, there were 58 million more poor people in 1999 than in 1990. Hunger is also a cause of poverty. By leading to such effects as poor health, low levels of energy, and even mental impairment, hunger can lead to even greater poverty.

Worldwide, there were some 27 million refugees and displaced persons in 2002 – largely as a result of wars, political turbulence, civil conflict and social unrest. In such emergencies, malnutrition runs rampant, exponentially increasing the risk of disease and death. But, important and visible though it is, conflict is not nearly as important as poverty as a cause of hunger.

Famine and wars cause about 10% of hunger deaths, although these tend to be the ones you hear about most often. The majority of hunger deaths are caused by chronic malnutrition. Families facing extreme poverty are simply unable to get enough food to eat.

Famine is a state of acute hunger, with the total lack of food supplies for entire populations which will inevitably result in death if nothing is done. Famine affects people whose only 'wrong' is to find themselves where "natural" disasters occurred or involved in conflicts where hunger is increasingly being used as a political weapon.
Somalia, Ethiopia, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mozambique, Angola, South Sudan, Great Lakes regions - the famines in all these countries in the last decade have been the result of violent conflicts, with thousands of refugees or displaced persons who are always the first victims of hunger.

Disasters can have severe economic impacts which are difficult to calculate. The Western Indian Ocean islands typically experience ten cyclones a year, between November and May, which bring strong winds and heavy rainfall. This causes destruction of infrastructure, particularly in low-lying areas and where settlements have encroached into flood-prone areas. Huge costs are incurred due to destruction of income-generation activities, including tourism revenues, and rehabilitation and replacement of damaged infrastructure and crops.
Africa’s people and economies are heavily dependent on rain fed agriculture, and are therefore vulnerable to rainfall fluctuations. It is usually the poor who suffer most from flood or drought-induced crop failure; because they often cultivate areas that are climatically marginal for crop, production and they cannot accumulate reserves for times of hardship.
Both droughts and floods can result in malnutrition and famine.

Civil strife and instability at regional, country, and local levels will further restrict the poor's access to food. In areas of conflict, rural populations are frequently forced to flee for their safety, leaving crops untended. Crops are burned. Productive assets are stolen. Conflicts disrupt traditional agricultural practices, thus exacerbating the effects of climatic fluctuations.

Population density, hunger, poverty and natural resource degradation are contributing to the initiation or maintenance of conflicts in poor countries where food insecurity and hunger are rampant.

The combination of war and climatic problems, the impossibility of delivering aid to victims, because these are blocked by people exploiting famine situations for financial gain, are all combinations of factors which explain famine.
Famines have become the preferred weapon in modern conflicts: they can be deliberately created, exposed, or even be denied.
The dynamics behind deliberately created famines:
Civilian populations are forced into towns where it is impossible to gather food from the fields and bring in their harvest, so they starve to death. The "usefulness" of artificially created famines:

• They call in humanitarian aid, which can then be hijacked by armed forces.
• They acquire a political legitimacy by prioritizing international recognition over access to victims.

Despite the fact that in the last 50 years, almost 500 million people worldwide have died from hunger aids and poor sanitation, which is four times more than the number of people killed in all the wars fought in the 20th century. The priorities are absolutely absurd. The relation toward problems like terror (which in comparison to those vast problems is quite narrow) is destructively nonproportional.

Until the priorities will not change to suffer over everything, including power, money, pride, oil, masculinity, capitalism etc, nothing is going to change. Right now things are getting worse every day. Even if something will change someday, there are too many creatures who endure too much suffer. They don’t have the time to wait. Their suffer must be stopped now.

Women

We live in a world in which even most humans, which, without a justified reason, morally superior over nonhuman animals, do not have basic control over what happens with their lives. What hope do nonhumans have, if even in the third millennium, half of the human population is systematically and automatically discriminated? The non-human animals don’t have a chance to ever be liberated!

How long would women have to wait until they won't be killed for expressing their opinions? For working in certain professions, such as journalists or writers? When will men understand that women belong only to themselves? When will forced marriages stop? When will women stop having sex with men they don’t desire? When will be the last rape?

70% of the 1.2 billion people living in poverty are female.
Approximately 80 per cent of people displaced by conflict or human rights violations are women and children. Displacement, internally or across borders, is disruptive and dangerous. It deprives women of the security of their community and exposes them to hunger, disease, violence and rape.
On average, women are paid 30%-40% less than men for comparable work.

In developing countries, only tiny fraction of women hold real economic or political power. Women hold only 12% of parliamentary seats worldwide. In the least developed countries it can be as low as 8.5%.

ONE OF EVERY THREE WOMEN has, at some point in her life, been the victim of sexual, physical, or psychological violence perpetrated by men. At least half of all women have been threatened, insulted or had their personal possessions destroyed.
Worldwide, A QUARTER OF ALL WOMEN are raped during their lifetime.
Depending on the country, 25 to 75 percent of women are regularly beaten at home. In the United States, where overall violent crime against women has been growing for the past two decades, a woman is physically abused by her intimate partner every nine seconds.
In India, more than 5,000 women are killed each year because their in laws consider their dowries inadequate.

Education offers the best chance for a better life, yet two thirds of the one billion illiterate adults in the world are female. Of the 130 million children not enrolled in primary school, two thirds are girls. ONE OUT OF EVERY THREE adult women still cannot read or write.
Only about half of the girls in the least developed nations stay in school after grade 4. In sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, only between 2 and 7 women per 1,000 attend high school or college.

Taliban's relation toward women--including banning women from most types of work, forcing women to wear a head-to-toe enveloping garment, and banning women from education beyond primary school.
Women were not permitted to work outside the home, unless they were healthcare professionals, or widows. The latter, estimated to number 40,000 in Kabul alone, were mostly unable to obtain paid employment and, were reduced to begging to support their families, and faced constant harassment and violence at the hands of the religious police. Saudi Arabia, where women faced systematic discrimination in all aspects of their lives: they were denied equality of opportunity in access to work, forced to comply with a restrictive dress code, and segregated in public life. Religious police punished infractions of the dress code with public beatings. Kuwait's record on women's rights was also dismal: the Kuwaiti government denied women the right to vote, segregated them, and required them to veil in public.

Until when women rights must still be negotiated?

The Thai government denied women who married non-nationals the right to buy and own property in their own names. Egypt discriminated against women who married non-nationals by refusing to allow them to transfer their nationality to their children. Syria conditioned a woman's choice in marriage on the consent of a male family member. Although having no such restriction for men, Venezuela prevented women from marrying until ten months after a divorce or annulment.
A Muslim Syrian woman could not marry a non-Muslim, while a Muslim man had absolute freedom to choose a spouse.
Syrian law also assigned different rights and responsibilities for women and men during marriage. A wife's "disobedience" could lead to forfeiture of her husband's responsibility to provide support. A man could legally have up to four wives simultaneously, while a woman could have only one husband.

“They took all the women and girls to another room and started with my fourteen-years-old daughter. She was crying a lot and imploring them not to do this because she is a virgin. But one of the men threatened her with his gun and said he would kill her if she did not undress. She was raped three times. The commander raped her twice, and another soldier raped her once. Then the two who were inside went out and the three who were outside came in and forced me next. I was raped five times. Then... they tried to rape my twelve-years-old daughter. But, I resisted by keeping my arms around her while they kept trying to hit her. We cried and said that we are poor people with no enemies, so why are you doing these things to us. The commander said, 'It is our choice. You are Talib [a member of the Taliban] and you are Pashtun."

Although millions of women and girls endure rape in war or as a political weapon, the international community relate to it as another unfortunate affair during a war. This is by no doubt a part of the general women discrimination and inferiority and what fixate it along with the other factors.

Inadequacies in our criminal justice system create an environment where it is relatively easy to commit an offence of rape without any severe consequences. Rape has one of the lowest conviction rates of all serious crimes in South Africa. Offenders frequently evade arrest and conviction and continue to intimidate their victims and the victim's family. In the absence of effective witness protection services, women often withdraw or fail to report cases as they fear intimidation by the perpetrator. Sentencing tends to be lenient which creates an impression that rape is not seen as a serious crime.

In many places in the world, rape within marriage doesn't even count. When a woman is married - "no" to sex is not an option. The woman suppose to give in to her husband. She is his property, his belonging. She has no rights over herself. Her body belongs to him. An estimated 683,000 rapes occur each year. Only 16% of rape victims report the offense to police. More than half of lifetime rapes occur before age 18 and nearly one-third occur before age 12.

Rape is one of the most devastating personal traumas. Many victims feel as if there lives have been shattered and that their psychological and physical privacy has been invaded. The emotional scars can take months and sometimes years to heal.
Typical reactions following a rape include feelings of shock, disbelief, numbness, fear, anger, guilt, self-blame, sadness, and sometimes elation. Changes in behaviour are common such as withdrawal, sleep disturbances, hypervigilance mood swings, poor concentration, lifestyle changes, and avoidance. These rape trauma reactions are similar to post traumatic stress reactions but symptoms such as avoiding men, sexual difficulties, feeling ashamed and dirty, are specific to the nature of the crime.

About half of raped women get genital injuries. Third get external vulvar bruising. Genital injuries are more common when anal intercourse had occurred. Anal tears and bruising were seen in 75% of women reporting anal rape.

The Mental Health Impact of Rape.
The first mental health problem examined was posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), an extremely debilitating disorder occurring after a highly disturbing traumatic event, such as military combat or violent crime.
Almost one-third (31%) of all rape victims developed PTSD sometime during their lifetime; and more than one in ten rape victims (11%) still has PTSD today. Major depression is a problem affecting many women, not just rape victims. However, 30% of rape victims had experienced at least one major depressive episode in their lifetime's rape victims with posttraumatic stress disorder were:
13.4 times more likely to have two or more major alcohol problems. 26 times more likely to have two or more major serious drug abuse problems.

Women lives will never be the same, just that men feel able to reassert their power and dominance against the perceived "weaker" individuals in society. In this context, rape is an assertion of power and aggression in an attempt to reassert the rapist's masculinity.

Ten to fourteen percent of ever-married women have experienced at least one forced sexual assault by a husband or ex-husband. in addition to the violation of their bodies, they are faced with a betrayal of trust and intimacy.

For tens of millions of women today, home is a locus of terror. It is not the assault of strangers that women need fear the most, but everyday brutality at the hands of relatives, friends and lovers. Battering at home constitutes by far the most universal form of violence against women and is a significant cause of injury for women. One in three women injured during a physical assault or rape required medical care.

Indeed, domestic violence is tragically commonplace. It occurs across education, class, income and ethnic boundaries. One quarter to one-half of all women have suffered physical abuse by an intimate partner. And while there are not yet enough data to make accurate country-by-country comparisons, the prevalence and pattern of domestic violence are remarkably consistent from one culture to the next. Statistics on rape from industrialized and developing countries show strikingly similar patterns: Between one in five and one in seven women will be victims of rape in their lifetime.

Until when will women see prison as a better alternative to their homes?

Women's vulnerability derives not only from the threat of direct violence. They have been the historic victims of political and economic exclusion and have suffered the ravages of patriarchy, sexism and discriminatory practices that have kept them outside of social, political and economic power structures.
This economic vulnerability limits their chances to change their situation when confronted with violence. Poverty-stricken women, and particularly those in rural areas, are often financially dependent, have limited access to employment and are unsupported mothers who must fulfil the role of caregiver. As a result they have few alternatives and options if they wish to leave a violent situation or community. On top of this, in most impoverished areas in South Africa, women have limited access to health, education, social, psychological and legal services.

The result is that there is evidence to show that African women, who are undoubtedly the poorest sector of our society, are more than ten times likely to experience an incidence of violence compared to their white counterparts. Recent South African police statistics also show that levels of rape are often highest in provinces which are economically less developed.

Poverty, particularly for women, is more than income deficiency. Women continue to lag behind men in control over the means of production such as cash, credit, and collateral: but they are also disadvantaged by other forms of impoverishment in areas such as literacy, education, skills, employment opportunities, mobility, political representation, and pressures on their available time and energy linked to role responsibilities. These factors diminish their human development capacity and affect their health status both directly and indirectly. For these reasons, women are often poorer relative to men of the same household and social group.

The multiple roles that they fulfill in society render them at greater risk of experiencing mental problems than others in the community. Women bear the burden of responsibility associated with being wives, mothers and carers of others. Increasingly, women are becoming an essential part of the labour force and in one-quarter to one-third of households they are the prime source of income.

In addition to the many pressures placed on women, they must contend with significant gender discrimination and the associated factors of poverty, hunger, malnutrition and overwork. An extreme but common expression of gender inequality is sexual and domestic violence perpetrated against women. These forms of socio-cultural violence contribute to the high prevalence of mental problems experienced by women.

Women are much more likely to receive a diagnosis of obsessive-compulsive disorder, Somatization disorder, and panic disorder.

Women living in poor social and environmental circumstances with associated low education, low income and difficult family and marital relationships, are much more likely than other women to suffer from mental disorders. They conclude that the combined impact of gender and low socio-economic status are critical determinants of mental ill-health.

Men are bombarded with violence on a daily basis. Television, movies and advertising continue to glorify the role of the "macho" man through action movies and television, violent video games and toys, pornography and much more.
Just as traditional notions of femininity have influenced both the way women behave, and the way they are expected to behave, men are victims of similar expectations, to be controlling, aggressive, physically strong, heterosexual, courageous and a financial provider.
From the earliest age, boys learn how to “be a man” from their, fathers, mothers, teachers, mentors, friends and other role models including the ones they find on television and in movies. Boys play with guns, planes and other violent toys, they engage in “contact sports” that glorify violence and the ability to overcome the other team, they are expected to become ruthless and powerful business executives, destroying their competitors, or they are encouraged to join the military and serve their countries by attacking “enemy” states or groups of people.

Don’t expect the movies industry, the television industry, the toys industry or advertising companies to care and change their actions because of their part in gender-based violence or the image of women in society. They won't! It is not profitable to care!

Women shouldn’t suffer silently until their lives will matter the same as men’s. Black people should not wait that their lives will be equal to white's lives. Poor people should not wait until their lives become more important than a billionaire profits and non-human animals should not wait until the world will change from "might is right" to "all who can suffer have a right".

Fgm

"My two sisters, myself and our mother went to visit our family back home. I assumed we were going for a holiday. A bit later they told us that we were going to be infibulated. The day before our operation was due to take place, another girl was infibulated and she died because of the operation. We were so scared and didn’t want to suffer the same fate. But our parents told us it was an obligation, so we went. We fought back; we really thought we were going to die because of the pain. You have one woman holding your mouth so you won’t scream, two holding your chest and the other two holding your legs. After we were infibulated, we had rope tied across our legs so it was like we had to learn to walk again. We had to try to go to the toilet, if you couldn’t pass water in the next 10 days something was wrong. We were lucky, I suppose, we gradually recovered and didn’t die like the other girl. But the memory and the pain never really goes."

How can you accept the fact that this action is a part of our world? A very critical and destructive part of more than 140 million women's world.
Such contempt towards women in the third millennium, simply do not leave a room for hope.
Not for women, not for the future generations and certainly not for those who are members of the most depressed class in the world with no comparison to any other depression in history, the non-human residents of earth. The non-human animals. They have no hope at all.
They count much less than nothing.

If you don’t see female genital mutilation as a justified cause to eliminate the human race, so first of all its sad that you underestimate their suffer. Besides that, can't you see it is a symptom of a very sick world, a symptom of a world based on power and dominance of a very tiny minority over a mighty majority, which is in a constant inferior position and in suffer for most of life.
The world has got to be stopped as soon as possible.

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is the most violent and traumatic practices that undermine the well-being of women while preserving male dominance endure -- often defended in the name of culture and tradition.

Female genital mutilation often referred to as ‘female circumcision’, comprises all procedures involving partial or total removal of the external female genitalia or other injury to the female genital organs whether for cultural, religious or other non-therapeutic reasons.

An estimated 135 million of the world's girls and women have undergone genital mutilation, and two million girls a year are at risk of mutilation - approximately 6,000 per day.

Classification of FGM
Type I Excision of the prepuce with or without excision of part or all of the clitoris. Type II Excision of the prepuce and clitoris together with partial or total excision of the labia minora.
Type IV includes pricking, piercing or incision of clitoris and/or labia. Stretching of clitoris and/or labia. Cauterization by burning of clitoris and surrounding tissues; scraping (angurya cuts) of the vaginal orifice or cutting (gishiri cuts) of the vagina; introduction of corrosive substances into the vagina to cause bleeding or herbs into the vagina with the aim of tightening or narrowing the vagina; any other procedure which falls under the definition of FGM given above.
Type III (infibulation) is the most extreme form of FGM and constitutes approximately 15% of all procedures. Infibulations involves the complete removal of the clitoris and the labia minora, as well as the inner surface of the labia majora. The two sides of the vulva are then stitched together with thorns or by silk or catgut sutures so that when the remaining skin of the labia majora heals, it forms a bridge of scar tissue over the vagina. A small opening is preserved by the insertion of a foreign body to allow for the passage of urine and menstrual blood. The girl's legs are sometimes bound together from thigh to ankle and she may be immobilized for several weeks to allow scar tissue to form over the wound.
When the wound has healed the reconstructed opening is surrounded by skin and tough scar tissue. If the vulva does not heal successfully or the opening is considered too big, the girl is operated on again.

The thought of cutting such a sensitive and gentle organ is terrifying. With the actual suffer we can never identify.

Since a physical barrier to intercourse has been created, the infibulated woman has to undergo gradual dilation by the husband after marriage. This is very painful and may take several days. Sometimes it is not possible for the husband to penetrate at all, and the opening has to be re-cut.

The procedure may be carried out in the girl's home, or the home of a relative or neighbor, in a health centre, or, especially if associated with initiation, at a specially designated site, such as a particular tree or river

The procedure is carried out with special knives, scissors, scalpels, pieces of glass or razor blades. There is often additional unintended damage due to crude tools, poor light and septic conditions. The procedures are usually carried out by an elderly woman, traditional midwife or even a barber!

Anesthetics and antiseptics are not generally used though the same instrument is used on multiple girls. Assistants and/or family members hold down the girl to prevent her struggling. The procedure lasts 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the ability of the person carrying it out, and the amount of resistance put up by the child. Every second is a living hell.

Female genital mutilation is a deliberate procedure which causes grave damage to children and women, and which in many cases results in serious health consequences. Haemorrhage is a common and almost unavoidable immediate result. Amputation of the clitoris involves cutting across the high pressure clitoral artery. Haemorrhage may also occur after the first week as a result of sloughing of the crust over the artery, usually because of infection. Cutting of the inner and/or outer labia further damages arteries and veins. As a result of the severe bleeding, serious collapse or sudden death may occur in the case of massive haemorrhage. Major blood loss can result in long-term anaemia. Shock is due not only to the bleeding, but also to the severe pain and anguish. Most procedures are performed without anaesthesia. Traumatic or neurogenic shock has sometimes been reported to cause death.
Infection, due to unhygienic conditions, and the use of unsterilized instruments or crude tools, is a likely outcome of the operation. Infection can also be contracted due to the traditional medicines used for healing the wound. The practice of binding the patient's legs after an infibulation may aggravate an infection by preventing drainage of the wound. The infection may spread internally to the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries, causing chronic pelvic infection and infertility. Infection may include tetanus, which is usually fatal, as well as potentially fatal septicaemia. Gangrene occurs when spores are introduced from unsterile instruments or faecal contamination.
Urine retention for hours or days is a common immediate complication of FGM and is due to pain, fear of passing urine on the raw wound, tissue swelling, inflammation, or injury to the urethra. Incidence varies according to the type of procedure. This condition often leads to urinary tract infection.
Injury to adjacent tissue such as the urethra, vagina, perineum or rectum results from the use of crude tools, poor light, careless techniques, or from the struggles of the girl. Such damage may result in incontinence.
Bleeding can arise sometime after the procedure is carried out if the wound becomes infected. Repeated defibulation and re-infibulation during childbirth may also cause major blood loss, which may lead to the development of long-term anaemia.

Difficult micturition is due to obstruction of the urinary opening or damage to the urinary canal. Urinating may be painful and result in urinary retention, frequent urination, incontinence and consequent urinary tract infection.
Recurrent urinary tract infections are often a result of the damage caused to the lower urinary tract during the mutilation or because of subsequent complications, leading to painful and difficult urination. Recurrent urinary tract infections are particularly common in infibulated women, where the normal flow of urine is deflected and the perineum remains constantly wet and susceptible to bacterial growth. Retrograde urinary infections may result and affect the bladder, urethra and the kidneys.
Incontinence may be a result of a damaged urethra at the time of the procedure, with severe social implications.

Chronic pelvic infections are common in infibulated women. FGM and partial occlusion of the vagina and urethra increase the likelihood of infection. These infections are painful and may be accompanied by a noxious discharge. Infections may spread to the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries, and may become chronic.
Neurinoma can develop where the dorsal nerve of the clitoris is cut. The whole genital area becomes permanently and unbearably painful.
Fistulae, vesico-vaginal or recto-vaginal, may form as the result of an injury during FGM, or due to defibulation or re-infibulation, intercourse or obstructed labour. Continuous leakage of urine and faeces can plague the woman all her life and turn her into a social outcast.

Genital mutilation can make first intercourse an ordeal for women. It can be extremely painful, and even dangerous, if the woman has to be cut open; for some women, intercourse remains painful. Even where this is not the case, the importance of the clitoris in experiencing sexual pleasure and orgasm suggests that mutilation involving partial or complete clitoridectomy would adversely affect sexual fulfillment.

The women's desire and will are being completely ignored. They count as nothing.

At childbirth, the trauma of mutilation is repeated. The woman has to be defibulated to allow the passage of the baby. The passage can cause obstructed labour due to tough scar tissue surrounding the birth canal. After birth, women are reinfibulated to make them "tight" for their husbands. The constant cutting and restitching of a women's genitals with each birth can result in tough scar tissue in the genital area.
Who gave them the right to violently invade to little girls bodies? No one did! They simply can, so they do. Forget the excuses. It is "pure" chauvinism in its most violent form.

FGM may leave a lasting mark on the life and mind of the woman who has undergone it. The psychological complications of FGM may be submerged deeply in the child's subconscious mind, and they may trigger the onset of behavioral disturbances. The possible loss of trust and confidence in those that are the care-givers has been reported as another serious effect. In the longer term, women may suffer feelings of incompleteness, anxiety, depression, chronic irritability, frigidity, marital conflicts, conversion reactions, or even psychosis. Many women traumatized by their FGM may have no acceptable means of expressing their feelings and fears, and suffer in silence. The pain is not just physical - it goes very, very deep and will be with them forever.

Custom and tradition are by far the most frequently cited reasons for FGM. Along with other physical or behavioral characteristics, FGM defines who is in the group. This is most obvious where mutilation is carried out as part of the initiation into adulthood.

FGM is often deemed necessary in order for a girl to be considered a complete woman, and the practice marks the divergence of the sexes in terms of their future roles in life and marriage.
The removal of the clitoris and labia viewed by some as the "male parts" of a woman's body is thought to enhance the girl's femininity, often synonymous with docility and obedience.
Cleanliness and hygiene feature consistently as justifications for FGM. Popular terms for mutilation are synonymous with purification (tahara in Egypt, tahur in Sudan), or cleansing (sili-ji among the Bambarra, an ethnic group in Mali). In some FGM-practicing societies, unmutilated women are regarded as unclean and are not allowed to handle food and water.

In some cultures, enhancement of the man's sexual pleasure is a reason cited for mutilation In many societies, an important reason given for FGM is the belief that it reduces a woman's desire for sex, therefore reducing the chance of sex outside marriage. The ability of unmutilated women to be faithful through their own choice is doubted. In many FGM-practicing societies, it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, for a woman to marry if she has not undergone mutilation. In the case of infibulation, a woman is "sewn up" and "opened" only for her husband. Societies that practice infibulation are strongly patriarchal. Preventing women from indulging in "illegitimate" sex, and protecting them from unwilling sexual relations, are vital because the honour of the whole family is seen to be dependent on it. Infibulation does not, however, provide a guarantee against "illegitimate" sex, as a woman can be "opened" and "closed" again.
In some cultures, there is a belief that a woman's genitals can grow and become unwieldy, hanging down between her legs, unless the clitoris is excised. Some groups believe that a woman's clitoris is dangerous and that if it touches a man's penis he will die. Others believe that if the baby's head touches the clitoris during childbirth, the baby will die. Some societies where FGM is practiced believe that it enhances fertility, the more extreme believing is that an unmutilated woman cannot conceive. In some cultures it is believed that clitoridectomy makes childbirth safer.
Other common beliefs are that children born to uncircumcised women are stubborn ,troublesome and more likely to be blinded or otherwise damaged if the mother’s clitoris touches them during birth.

Only in an extremely chauvinist, raciest and speciesist world, operation like female genital mutilation can occur conventionally.
With a world full of so much suffer, people tend to repress, get used to it and underrate it. The media, which as you all know, dictate in a freighting way the public opinion, seem to divide the suffer to western world suffer and developing world suffer. As long as it happens "there" far from the "real world", women, particularly in the third world, don’t seem to concern anyone.

Most of the girls and women who have undergone genital mutilation live in 28 African countries, although some live in Asia and the Middle East. They are also increasingly found in Europe, Australia, Canada and the USA, primarily among immigrants from these countries.

It now took a quarter of an hour for her to pee. Her menstrual periods lasted ten days. She was incapacitated by cramps lasting nearly half the month. There were premenstrual cramps: cramps caused by the near impossibility of flow passing through so tiny an aperture as M’Lissa had left after fastening together the raw sides of Tashi’s vagina with a couple of thorns and inserting a straw so that in healing, the traumatized flesh might not grow together, shutting the opening completely, cramps caused by the residual flow that could not find its way out, was not reabsorbed into her body and had nowhere to go. There was the odour too, of soured blood, which no amount of scrubbing ever washed off.

Children

"I saw 10 to 20 people shot, mostly old people who couldn't walk fast. They shot my uncle in the head and killed him. Then they made my father take his brains out and throw them into some water nearby. Then they made my father undress and have an affair with a decaying body. Then they raped my cousin who was a little girl of nine years old.
I’ve seen people get their hands cut off, a ten-year-old girl raped and then die, and so many men and women burned alive... So many times I just cried inside my heart because I didn’t dare cry out loud."

As crazy as it sounds, that testimony, from a sierra-Leone nine-years-old girl, is not unusual in our world. In fact, horrors like that are starting to become popular.

Do you really believe that people like that will ever change to be a compassionate, moral beings? Do you really believe that people like that will ever become vegan? Do you really think that it's the right, moral and fair decision to wait until they would?

In recent decades, the proportion of civilian casualties in armed conflicts has increased dramatically and is now estimated to stand at more than 90 per cent. About half of the victims are children.

This is partly a function of technology. Aerial bombardment has extended the potential battle zone to entire national territories. World War II saw a massive increase in indiscriminate killings, with the bombings of Coventry and Dresden, for example, and the atomic bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And this pattern was repeated in the Vietnam war, which is estimated to have cost 2.5 million lives.

A further cause of the rising death toll for civilians is that most contemporary conflicts are not between states, but within them. Rather than being set-piece battles between contending armies, these are much more complex affairs—struggles between the military and civilians, or between contending groups of armed civilians. They are as likely to be fought in villages and suburban streets as anywhere else is.
In this case, the enemy camp is all around, and distinctions between combatant and non-combatant melt away in the suspicions and confusions of daily strife. In 1994, the UN department of humanitarian affairs reported that 13 countries had ongoing "complex emergencies" of this type, and it classified over 20 million people as "vulnerable"; it also listed 16 other countries with potential emergencies.

Families and children are not just being caught in the crossfire; they are also likely to be specific targets. This is because many contemporary struggles are between different ethnic groups in the same country or in former states. When ethnic loyalties prevail, a perilous logic clicks in. the escalation from ethnic superiority to ethnic cleansing to genocide is an irresistible process. Killing adults is then not enough; future generations of the enemy—their children—must also be eliminated. As one political commentator ex-pressed it, in a 1994 radiobroadcast before violence erupted in Rwanda, "to kill the big rats, you have to kill the little rats".

The establishment of the United Nations after World War II raised hopes of a new era of peace. Those optimistic did not take into account that this is the human race that we are dealing with!
Between 1945 and 1992, there were 149 major wars. More than three new wars a year. There is always a war going on somewhere in the world. One subsides, another breaks out.

As wars take on an ethnic, tribal or fratricidal cast, civilians and their children may find themselves the objects of genocidal violence.

Millions of children are caught up in conflicts in which they are not merely bystanders, but targets. Some fall victim to a general onslaught against civilians; others die as part of a calculated genocide. Still other children suffer the effects of sexual violence or the multiple deprivations of armed conflict that expose them to hunger or disease. Just as shocking, thousands of young people are cynically exploited as combatants.
In the past decade, around 2 million children have been killed in armed conflict, three times as many have been seriously injured or permanently disabled, and countless others have been forced to witness or even to take part in horrifying acts of violence. In the wars of the last decade, more children were killed than soldiers.12 million left homeless, and more than 1 million orphaned. 20 million have been forced to flee their homes because of conflict, and some 10 million are psychologically traumatized.

Not only large numbers of children are killed and injured, but also countless others grow up deprived of their material and emotional needs, including the structures that give meaning to social and cultural life. The entire fabric of their societies their homes, schools, health systems, and religious institutions are torn to pieces.

All tactics are employed, from systematic rape, to scorched earth tactics that destroy crops and poison wells, to ethnic cleansing and genocide

When food supplies have run short, it is children who have been hardest hit, since their growing bodies need steady supplies of essential nutrients. When water supplies have been contaminated, children have had the least resistance to the dangers of disease.

Millions of children have died as a result of malnutrition and disease caused by warfare. Since 1990, the most commonly reported causes of death among refugees and internally displaced persons have been diarrhoeal diseases, acute respiratory infections, measles and other common, preventable infectious diseases. Mostly in poor countries where children are already vulnerable to malnutrition and disease.

Many have been physically or sexually abused by the very forces for which they have been fighting, and have seen their parents killed, sometimes in the most brutal manner, in front of their eyes. Most have also been led into participating in murder, rape and other atrocities. These children have no skills for life in peacetime and they are accustomed to getting their way through violence.

Approximately 540 million children in the world, one in four, live in dangerous, unstable situations.
More than half of children living in conflicts zones witnessed a murder. Half were held in a position, which they thought they were going to die.

In the Rwanda genocide, more than 80% of the children lost immediate family member.

Trauma of exposure to violence and brutal death has emotionally affected generations of young people for the rest of their lives.

However even if youngsters do not witness violence or lose family members, they suffer the disruption of their normal lives as schools close, friends disperse, and their homes come under fire. In the short-term, children may stop speaking and become emotionally withdrawn. Some are permanently changed.

In one of the most horrific human cataclysms, an estimated quarter of a million children in Rwanda were slaughtered in 1994 in the genocide that took, by some accounts, a million lives over the course of weeks. Scores of thousands more children were tortured, some by their schoolteachers, some in their churches, others while they lay in hospital beds. Hundreds of thousands more watched in agony and fear as their parents and families and friends were stalked and massacred by people they had known and trusted for years.

Around the planet there are millions of children who have been forced to flee to neighboring countries as refugees or who have been 'internally displaced' within their own countries. These children are in need of special attention. At a crucial and vulnerable time in their lives, these children are brutally uprooted and exposed to danger and insecurity.

During armed conflict, girls and women are continually threatened by rape, domestic violence, sexual exploitation, trafficking, sexual humiliation, and mutilation.
Investigative reports following the 1994 genocide in Rwanda concluded that nearly every female over the age of 12 who survived the genocide was raped. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the rape of teenage girls was systematized into a deliberate policy. It has been estimated that more than 20,000 women have been raped since the Balkan war began in 1992.

In more than thirty countries around the world, children have become direct participants in war. Denied a childhood and often subjected to horrific violence. Children are often used to lay and clear landmines.

Problems such as hunger and poverty drive parents to offer their children as soldiers because it ensures that they will be fed and given medication. In some cases, they owe the government money, but they offer the child instead.
Child soldiers are often used because they are obedient and cheap, do not question orders and easier to manipulate and most importantly they are fearless, which will lead them to the front lines. They are often fed drugs and alcohol, and then forced to witness, and commit horrifying atrocities.

Many are abducted or recruited by force, and often compelled to follow orders under threat of death. Others join armed groups out of desperation. As society breaks down during conflict, leaving children no access to school, driving them from their homes, or separating them from family members, many children perceive armed groups as their best chance for survival. Others seek escape from poverty or join military forces to avenge family members who have been killed.

Child soldiers often start out in support functions. Boys serve as porters or as messengers. Girls may prepare food or attend to the wounded — they also forced to provide sexual services or be 'married off' to other soldiers. However, both boys and girls are soon forced onto the battlefield where their youth and inexperience leave them particularly vulnerable. Often they are unaware of the real dangers they face; they may even forget to take cover. They serve as human mine detectors, participate in suicide missions and carry supplies.
In a number of cases, children have been deliberately exposed to horrific scenes to harden them to violence. Some have even been forced to commit atrocities against their own families as a way of severing all ties with their communities.

There are an estimated 100,000 girl children fighting around the world. Girls are most commonly recruited by opposition groups, but some are also used to fight on behalf of governments.
Some groups target them specifically. Others are forced into unwanted marriages with rebel leaders. When the leaders die, their "wives" may be set aside for ritual cleansing, then married off again.

Sometimes girl soldiers who give birth during conflicts are forced to strap the babies to their back and take them into battle.

The armed violence does not stop when the war does.
Small arms and light weapons are now the most readily available and deadly killing instruments in war and post-conflict situations. Deaths linked to small firearms run into the hundreds of thousands every year, with injuries exceeding 1 million.

However, the most dangerous arena for children is the one place that supposed to be the safest, their own home.

In Africa for example despite the notoriously poor statistics, it has been estimated that up to 60% of marital relationships involve abuse and that between 1 in 4 women are abused. This abuse includes rape and sexual assault.
The above figures make it strikingly clear that numerous children who grow up in South African homes are exposed to high levels of violence within their homes. This is a paradoxical situation as the home is traditionally viewed as a safe haven and a sanctuary from the harshness of the outside world, and yet, it is the one place where many children are at most risk for violence and no safety or protection is provided.

Humans have failed in ensuring that children enjoy access to education and health services and protection for their other economic and social rights.

Children very often become the silent victims. They may be victimized directly through themselves being abused or indirectly, through witnessing the horror of a parent being repeatedly abused and sometimes killed in front of them. They are the silent victims.

Two children, aged 2 and 4 years old, witnessed the brutal killing of their mother. Their father bludgeoned her to death in front of them and she died a long and agonizing death. The children witnessed the entire ordeal and were then left with their mother's body for the entire night.
Father returned in the morning and killed himself in front of the children by shooting himself through the head.

They often lose both parents, either through both being killed, as in the above incident, or through the father being imprisoned. Since the killing occurred within the context of the family, all routines familiar to the children are disrupted. They then face being uprooted from their home, familiar environment and relationships. They may be parted from their siblings and suffer multiples losses of their parents, home, school, friends and possessions.
These children are often placed in foster care. They are often dealing with their own feelings of shame and guilt about what happened and due to their emotional state, may not be able to respond to the emotional needs of the child.

The child may initially be in a state of shock and numbness and those around them assume that their quietness and lack of emotional display is a sign that they are unaffected by the events. Children may also attempt to hide their levels of disturbance from their caretakers, for fear of being a burden.

Children may display symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder, which can interfere with their grieving. The helplessness associated with witnessing the killing of their parent can lead to numbing and emotional constriction and attempts to avoid anything that reminds them of the event. There may be distressing nightmares about the murder and intrusive images and memories, which leave the child stuck with the gruesome last images of their parents' death

Other posttraumatic stress reactions include numbness, detachment, withdrawal, hyper arousal, impaired sleep, concentration and fearfulness. These children also engage in posttraumatic play in which they repeatedly act out the events.
This type of play is grim and repetitive and does not resemble the normal joyful play of children. traumatized children commonly grow up with changed attitudes about themselves, life and others.

The fact that one parent has killed another is very hard for the child to make sense.

These horrific childhood experiences have serious long-term impacts on child survivors. In the majority of cases, the murder of their parent was preceded by years of violence within the family and these children have been repeatedly traumatized. They may have grown up in a familial environment of pervasive terror, control and violence. Adult survivors grow up with fundamental problems in basic trust, autonomy and initiative. Their prolonged exposure to trauma may lead to personality changes and emotional detachment, rage, sadness and fear. Female survivors appear to be more prone to further victimisation in adulthood and depression and anxiety. In contrast, males appear to display more aggressive behaviour.

This is perhaps due to their identification with the violent role model of their father. In violent families, children learn that violence is an acceptable way of resolving problems.

A more direct domestic violence is all kinds of sexual abuses. The rates are terrifying. Approximately 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men report a history of some form of childhood sexual abuse. Most commonly, the offender is someone known to the child.

It seems that humans cannot do anything right.

Children who are sexually abused display signs of fear, anxiety, and concentration problems consistent with symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder.
Depression, chronic and excessive fear and anxiety, recurring anger, hyperactivity, and difficulty establishing and maintaining friendships.
They tend to be more aggressive. In addition, sexually abused children are reported to have more behavioral problems in comparison to non abused children, and specifically have been found to display more sexual behavior problem.

The severest form of sexual assault is rape.
The effects on children are devastating.

As a result of the rape, the children had symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder:

Fear that the trauma would happen again - the children's worlds became very dangerous

Intrusive thoughts about the rape

Physical reactions such as headaches and stomachaches

Nightmares

Fear and avoidance of men

Uncharacteristic oppositional, aggressive and rebellious behaviour

Depression

Mood swings

Disturbed appetite

Inability to concentrate

Decline in school performance

Difficulties in peer relationships.

All these children are the victims of today and the abusers of tomorrow. They were raised in a violent environment by violent parents. Every child is exposed to violence on a daily basis.
All there lives they learned that power will get them what they want, and they are allowed to use it at any time they like, especially on who is weaker. The next generation will not be different.
The world doesn’t entitle with more and more opportunities. Destroy it!
