As the name suggests: The silent holocaust is so named because it is not truly acknowledged by our tribal leaders.
Nor is it often mentioned by our tribal media. Because it relates to another "tribe" - it seems
that the silent holocaust simply does not merit our tribal media's interest.
Because
of this silence, the actual scale of what has been going on is invisible to us. This being so, the ongoing tragedy is not recognised for what it truly is: And what it "truly" is; is holocaust
by indifference.
Because the true situation
is never fully explained to us we are largely unaware of the scale of it. However, most of us are vaguely
aware that large numbers of babies and children are starving to death in the third world. A situation which has been ongoing
since time immemorial us,
Having
mentioned our general ignorance. It is worthy of note that some years ago, an Irish singer named Bob Geldoff decided to do
something about it - and he did. As did a large number of musicians from both sides of the Atlantic - and beyond.
Sadly
the situation still continues to this day. Huge numbers of babies and children are still starving to death, and the overwhelming
majority of us simply don't care.
Were
it not for religious and secular groups and charities from around the World who remind us with occasional insights. This
silent holocaust would go totally unnoticed.
The
true tragedy is that this particular holocaust could be avoided. It really doesn't have to happen... But
resolving the matter would involve us evolving out of our conditioned tribalism and acting as one global family. Unfortunately,
there are too many vested interests in tribalism for that too ever happen.
So
the holocaust of the babies and children of the World's poorest will continue ... to our undying shame.
Perspective
In
the World War 2 siege of Leningrad: 1,500,000 of those in that city died - most having starved to death. The overwhelming
majority of those deaths were civilians, and most of those were reportedly women and children.
That
siege was a war-crime on an industrial scale. Over the years, decades, centuries and millennia how many millions upon millions
of Humanity's children have starved to death? Whilst other members of our same global family are dying of obesity.
