A Letter to the US, Canada, and Pakistan


I looked for a pre-fab letter to no avail. I have a deadline for work today. I will write a letter soon and post it by Friday. Please check back.

I feel very strongly about this. As a world community we need to reject rape. Governments are only valid if they protect their citizens. If we want to strengthen pro-US, secular, Islamic governments, we must promote human rights and security in those nations. Bodily integrity is one of the most basic human rights. Governments the world over must condemn, not condone rape.
