Article 1 of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR)[2]
I guess the above is not one of those unwanted discussion so let me add, that at least we agree on the importance of this UN declaration. This UN declaration is especially important in a week when mad crazies killed innocent people of all types in Mumbai, in the name of religious or political ideology.
We all live in a realistic world. Laws of a country are not taught to all the citizens, lawabiding people learn and abide by law. Whether law exists or not, really doesnot matter to those who have no respect for law. Justice at all levels
enforces law,but when there is justice who can implement law?
United Nations came into being for the failure of the league of Nations to maintain international peace and security. There are 192 member states of the U.N.O.The Organization is based on the principle of the sovereign equality of all its Members.The General Assembly consists of all the Member States of the United Nations.Each Member ( State) have not more than five representatives in the General Assembly. But five permenant member states run the show, where as 192 sit and see the show. Is it the democracy of champions of democracy. Is it justified to exclude India,Germany , Japan and many other states with huge poulations away from running the UN affairs.
The main objectives of UNO include, maintainence of international peace and security and settlement of international disputes by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security, and justice, are not endangered.
Despite clear provisions of International law, Is the world peaceful as desired by the Charter of United Nations?
Have the member states stopped wars? , Have they solved all international disputes like Palestine,Kashmire, Tibbet etc and without loss of life?
If state law or international law becomes applicable in its real spirit, this world will no longer be the world,but the paradise, where gun , gun boat and gun ship will have no place, and world will not be regularised by the UN charter or a state law.
Until injustice is there,nations will destroy other nations, stronger will do things at will and weeker will be deminished.
Champions of human rights will violate human rights in the name of these rights and the supressed will remain as such at the hands of suppressors.As a result crime & aggression will equally increasae. Democracy will be exported from one state to another on the wings of B57, gunships,submarines and destroyers.
The objectives of UNO will be implemented in the shape of aggression,killing of human,looting of wealth and destruction of the planet. and then another body will come into being as replacement of UNO and league of Nations.
No one under such circumstances can either teach or learn, be it the local law Vs citizens or the countries Vs the UN charter or the human rights.
