This is sadly very true Jennifer. However, we like to consider ourselves a more advanced and intelligent generation where such atrocities cannot be viewed acceptable by any means (law, government, and the people) These crimes do not run rampant in the west as they do in the Middle East and Asia. Every country on this planet has murderers, rapists and pedophiles. That will most likely never change. But when it is deemed acceptable by law and religion, that is when the line is crossed beyond forgiveness. These people has access to western information, via the internet and media, they can no longer use ignorance as an excuse.

I refuse to believe you are born evil, but you are raised evil, and I refuse to believe that evil cannot be changed. That is the compassion we hold that they lack.

To the "Holy Nations", Allah is not with you, nor was He ever. Whether it is the West or your own doing, you will fail and one day the world will forget you were ever there and we will be better off for it. I wish the children could be spared I truly do and I hope one day they will be.
