Tidal Waves of Human Misery Could be Avoided!


   The world today is filled with misery and the tidal wave of refugees now escaping Syria is another example of what can happen when psychopathic dictators gain political and military power.

  After the second World-War, the United Nations was created to avoid and stop the kind of human misery created by that war. Today, however,  member nations of the U.N. are not truly united and once again there is an on-going crime against humanity. Syria is in civil war because the dangerous and psychopathic leader of that country, Asaad, has aligned himself with another dangerous dictator, Putin of Russia, and they are both ruling with impunity and by force. All it takes is for small countries like Syria or Iran or Iraq to align themselves with larger and more powerful countries like Russia, or China or even the United States and they hamstring the United Nations. The U.N. becomes helpless to stop civil wars and crimes against humanity. All through human history wars were created when smaller countries joined forces and created military pacts with one another and with larger countries. At the start of World War One for example, all it took was one shot to start a Domino effect and a massacre and a few years later, at the start of World War Two, psychopathic Hitler created military pacts with Austria, Spain, Italy and Japan and went on to cause the deaths of Fifty million people!

 When the most dangerous and powerful government leaders feel they can ignore the dictates of the U.N.. the world faces trouble! With economic and military strength, a few government leaders within the United States, Russia, China, and Canada become dangerous and self-serving human beings. Today the leaders of these countries are basically business people looking for Oil and other natural resources and when one or two become drunk with power, they must be discovered and removed from power before they create a civil war or genocide or a brutal tidal wave of refugees!

 After World War Two, a court at the Hague was created for suspected war criminals. That court must once again become fully operational to discover and confront as early as possible psychopathic government leaders attempting to rule with dangerous impunity. In fact it would be safer for the world if all potential national leaders were forced to pass medical and psychiatric examinations sponsored by the United Nations before they took power within their home countries.
