SO MANY QUESTIONS

Justice Wanted

As I watch news reports from around the world, I have so many questions:

Everyone talks about the problem of Mexican people crossing into the United States illegally to find work.

1. Why don’t the wealthy people of the world create jobs for the Mexicans IN Mexico?

2. Why is the Vatican still refusing to allow scholars access to the archives covering the reign of Pope Pius XII and World War II ?

If the secrets can be kept for a few more years, those who remember the Holocaust will not be able to tell, and those who don't remember the Holocaust, won't be interested in finding out.

3. Why is there almost no news coverage of the suffering of little girls forced into prostitution in Thailand and India - except on PBS?

4. Why are criminals entitled to so many "rights" under Canadian law, while police and elected members of government tell me that crime victims have no rights ?

Yes, I have so many questions. But I have such a small voice. Maybe things would get better if other people also started asking these questions out loud.
