The countries and communities don't have any right to violate human rights of individuals. Death for adultery, death for blasphemy, death for eating beef, death for marrying outside caste all these are human rights violations possible because in each country a minority of people who are orthodox and fanatic become powerful enough to dictate their terms.
The
international cooperation of enlightened people and of countries and powerful
UN must be able to thwart such violations by retrogressive communities and
countries. Those who simply denounce some religion or some country where such
retrogressive laws are in force is not enough. We all owe responsibility to
save individual life, liberty and rights. It is not enough that
people blame for example Islam, Muslims or Muslim countries for violations of
human rights. It is GLOBAL SHAME if someone anywhere is killed for writing or
drawing anything or for eating any food or for having sex with anyone with
mutual consent or for marrying someone with mutual consent. We must unite to
end all this barbarity in 21st century and outside people are in better
position to be effective than persons belonging to that community or country.
For this we need powerful UN to safeguard human rights of weakest person in the
World where offending country or community will have to face consequences of
embargo and other punitive steps. There must be so much international pressure
that countries will have to renounce medieval jurisprudence and adopt modern
progressive laws. Archaic and medieval laws must be relegated to archives and
modern laws should be enforced all over the World.
