18.03.2016 idomeni, greece. the european governments have chosen the path of barbarism, leaving all behind that they claim to stand for in the last 70 years. after the second world war the nations met 1948 in paris to pass a bill, the universal declaration of human rights.also this declaration is not written and passed as a international law treaty, it actually transformed into one. “the 1968 united nations international conference on human rights advised that the declaration “constitutes an obligation for the members of the international community” to all persons. there has been numberless breaches of the bill from country´s all over the world since it was launched from 48 nations in 1948, but the western world was always claiming that this is one of their fundamental roots. when you analyze the latest policy of the european union and it´s members, you have to come to the conclusion that these governments unlinked from these rules during the last year.
the new practice to “handle” the refugee crisis uses methods far beyond what is the substance of the declaration of human rights.
in greece and in the mediterranean sea, there is a actual military war mission ongoing, a mission that includes war ships, submarines, planes, drones, helicopters and thousands of military personal from the nato and frontex. the military is officially deployed to fight smugglers and human traffickers, therefore they also approved to use lethal force.
it is pure disinformation by the eu to call this a rescue mission. the mission is launched and created to stop the refugees from coming to europa.
big and small non-governmental organisations like amnesty international,human rights watch,doctors without borders and many more, recently issued press releases that are strongly contrary to the latest actions of how the eu is handling the refugee crisis, including the deal with turkey.

End Irreversible Genital Surgeries on Intersex Infants
“I got to spend a little time with my daughter [right after she was born], and I remember I kept saying to her, ‘I hope you’re all right. I hope you’re all right.’ [The doctors kept] telling us all the things that were wrong with her… and that was so hard to hear as a parent. But I feel like in these last two and a half years, she has been doing nothing but proving to us that she’s all right.”
Very important, moving video from Human Rights Watch discussing the importance of ending surgeries on intersex babies. Watch, share, resist.
