Justification

Polpot killed thousands of cambodians.

Hitler killed countless civilians.

Israel kills countless Palestinians.

European settlers killed thousands of Australian aborigines

Communists killed so many during the Darurat (Emergency)

Japanese killed countless civilians during WW2

Spanish colonialists killed countless of Mayans

And many other similar scenarios...

But all these killings have one thing in common. The leaders responsible for these killings never admit that they have done wrong. All will come out with arguments to justify their actions even though it is clear to human logic that what they do is inherently wrong. I wonder, what if these leaders were themselves victims to their own decisions, I wonder what will they say by then.

These leaders say that people who condemn them could never grasp the big picture of what their cause was for. Polpot strived for an agricultural ethiopia in Cambodia, Hitler strived for the sake of the German race, Israel kills for internal security and so on.. until u get sick of their arguments.

For me, they are criminals, like how people who murder children, would argue when they justify their actions in court.

In war, only soldiers should be killed on the battlefield, not innocent people. But if innocent people help them, then, they are to be treated as soldiers, for they are also contributing to the enemies' advance. That is the dirty truth of wars. It is difficult if war occurs.

Ok, if u were a warlord, and the enemy is having mortars and rocket launchers, bombing the houses of you families. But the catch is, each mortar and rocket launcher is accompanied by one child. As a warlord, what will you do?

a) kill the rocket launchers and at the same time killing the accompanying child

or

b) have sympathy for the children, and just let the enemy fire mortars killing your own family.

So being in a war is not easy. Deceits occur, people get killed, more widows roam the street, and more children become orphans.

But back to the topic, "justification", : every human being will tend to do something perceived as good to them, but perceived as bad by others. And when that occurs, they will justify their actions even though it goes far away from human logic. So in this pretext, the word RIGHT and WRONG technically doesn't exist. Nothing is RIGHT in this world and nothing is WRONG in this world if you catch my drift.

But what gives meaning to the word RIGHT and WRONG is the satisfaction you feel having the feeling that what you do, is in your perspective CORRECT.

So how does God save the human race from this dilemma. He sends to us Revelations through our Prophets so as we are not guided astray due to our human nature.
