Double Standards enrages Morality

I have recently done a talk on the self appointed double standards within religion and in my research I had to revisit the double standards within our own medias and laws. I have come to the un-yielding conclusion that it is these double standards that cause our society to loose our educational decision making and hurt our moral fabric.

The most notable double standard in our society is the double standard the "Liberal" media presents about Israel. the only problem is that being an idiot has nothing to do with being a liberal. As JFK says:

"What do our opponents mean when they apply to us the label "Liberal?" If by "Liberal" they mean, as they want people to believe, someone who is soft in his policies abroad, who is against local government, and who is unconcerned with the taxpayer's dollar, then ... we are not that kind of "Liberal." But if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal." [September 14, 1960]"

I find myself a liberal voice and anti-Zionism has nothing to do with being a liberal. Its just being ignorant. The double standard Israel receives shows that the liberal part of society that can bring about necessary change instead believes that it can be lazy.

This and other double standards are what hurt our world and hurt our worlds chance of being an educational environment instead of a crying match.

Olympic Boycott = TO LITTLE TO LATE

Recently, there has been talk about boycotting the Olympics this year because of China's oppressive nature against the Tibet people. There are only four words that can describe the real situation of all human rights advocates: TO LITTLE TO LATE.

The International Olympic Committee picked China over four years ago, THAT is when people should have protested the games, not four months before the games begin. It is basically sending a message to the world that the only time when people can fight oppression is when it is popular in the media. TO LITTLE TO LATE.

Olympic boycotts in the past were horrible, but planned at least two years before the games would begin. If any democratic country boycotts this year because of an infringement on human rights, all they are saying is that democratic countries only care about what is popular in the media. Let the athletes compete without political tension. The IOC is not ignoring the issue on human rights, it just took to long for the democratic countries to care and the only outcome of a boycott would be to embarrass human rights commissions by exposing their own procrastination. This type of irrational behavior shows that democratic leaders do not have the judgement to act properly in world issues. Fortunately that could change soon.
