Caught in the crossfire

Excerpts:

"For all citizens of the world who believe in basic humanity, the time has come to demand urgent and immediate intervention. The UN Security Council (UNSC) has the military power to bring this unceasing genocide to a halt. Perhaps the time has now come to add moral authority to that. At the end of the day, it is all about morality. Saving children and giving them an opportunity to try to build a better future is a sacred moral duty of all mankind. Scoring diplomatic debating points is fine, but we have crossed the stage of rhetoric. Future generations will never forgive us if the global powers which have the means to stop the genocide do not act now. Who said morality doesn’t have the power to impact the powerful?"
