-Caveat Lector- In regard to your article below, perhaps you are failing to consider the self-defense aspects? Vaccines are deadly. If someone was attempting to force a vaccine on SOMEONE ELSE's children WITHOUT informed consent, I shouldn't be too surprised if that person were killed, it seems like God's justice to me. Read these books before you continue violating God's laws: http://www.ioa.com/~davehart/murderinject.htm http://www.ioa.com/~davehart/medicalmafia.htm Perhaps political meddling and do-gooding is to blame for these deaths? Dave Hartley http://www.Asheville-Computer.com http://www.ioa.com/~davehart Wednesday, 13 October 1999: UNICEF called today for a sea-change in the way the international community handles the protection of humanitarian aid workers. The call came one day after the killings in Burundi of the UNICEF Representative and a staff member from the World Food Programme. "What we saw yesterday in Burundi was a calculated, cold-blooded murder of humanitarian workers, plain and simple," said UNICEF Executive Director Carol Bellamy. "We cannot and should not view these killings as an isolated incident. They are part of a contemporary and continually expanding pattern in which humanitarian workers are being identified and targeted for death -- a pattern the world simply can no longer tolerate," she said. Ms. Bellamy noted that Tuesday's deaths brought to four the number of UN workers killed in the field in as many weeks. "Individual states must now clearly understand that the growing number of killings constitutes a crisis requiring urgent action, rather than mere hand-wringing and polite expressions of condolence," she said. "Even as the world demands that humanitarian relief be provided to civilians in need - and properly so -- there has been a simultaneous lack of regard for the realities in which aid workers operate. Put simply, there has been too much looking away from what needs to be done, and people are paying with their lives." Ms. Bellamy pointed out that humanitarian organisations and their staff in the field depend for their physical protection on universal adherence to humanitarian conventions and international law. "But in a world in which the number of militant groups failing to respect the sanctity of life -- much less the sanctity of humanitarian principles -- is multiplying, it is our conviction that governments must demand such respect through strict enforcement of laws," Ms. Bellamy said. "The international community and individual states must not allow those who kill humanitarian workers to do so with impunity." She said hard choices must be made regarding the disarmament of militias and other armed groups around the world, and noted that governments and international bodies that allow these violent groups to flourish unwittingly contribute to the destruction and loss of life that all-too-often follows in their wake. The killing of humanitarian workers in the Great Lakes Region of Africa can be traced directly to the failure of the international community to disarm the genocidaires in the refugee camps of former Zaire after their exodus from Rwanda. Acknowledging that solutions are not easy, Ms. Bellamy observed that simply pulling out of dangerous environments must be a step of last resort for the UN agencies. "It is really not an acceptable solution at all," she said, "because it is precisely in these situations that civilian populations are most at risk." "In East and West Timor, in Kosovo, in Colombia and in countries all over Africa, people are in need of urgent humanitarian assistance. And dozens of agencies and thousands of courageous individuals are willing to stay there to provide that assistance," Ms. Bellamy said. "We are now calling on the international community -- and governments in particular -- to put their heads and their collective wills together to reverse the tide of violence that is eating away at the very idea of humanitarian relief." She added: "UN agencies cannot by themselves bring about the needed changes. Nor can they continue to operate in flashpoints of danger and conflict without full security guarantees for all their personnel. Clearly, the governments on whose behalf the UN agencies act must assume total responsibility for ensuring that security. If they continue to avoid that responsibility, they abandon defenseless men, women and children to the mindless brutality of armed thugs and terrorists. "We owe it to those courageous humanitarian workers who have already given their lives to set a new course: one that allows relief assistance to be provided wherever and whenever necessary, but which is also founded upon an unshakeable and shared commitment to protect those who serve."
