In this century, we've seen genocide. We've seen mass graves and the ashes of villages burned to the ground; children used as soldiers and rape used as a weapon of war. This places teaches us that we must be ever vigilant about the spread of evil in our own time, that we must reject the false comfort that others' suffering is not our problem and commit ourselves...
...home furnishings, revelations that have recently led to several high-profile resignations in the U.K. "It doesn't have to be criminally punishable.
