Based on what you have learned in this lesson, write two to three sentences describing one success and one failure of Clinton’s
cupoosta [38]

When the Genocide Convention was passed by the United Nations in 1948, the world said, “Never again.”

But the history of the twentieth century instead proved that “never again” became “again and again.”  The promise the United Nations made was broken, as again and again, genocides and other forms of mass murder killed 170 million people, more than all the international wars of the twentieth century combined.

Why?  Why are there still genocides?  Why are there genocidal massacres going on right now in southern Sudan by the Sudanese government against Dinka, Nuer, and Nuba; in eastern Burma by the Burmese government against the Karen; in the Democratic Republic of the Congo by both government and rebel forces against Tutsis, Banyamulenge, Hutus, Hema, and Lendu?  Why has ethnic and religious hatred again reached the boiling point in Israel and Palestine; Côte d’Ivoire, and Burundi?                                                     

There are two reasons why genocide is still committed in the world:

1.        The world has not developed the international institutions needed to predict and prevent it.

2.        The world’s leaders do not have the political will to stop it.

In order to prevent genocide, we must first understand it.  We must study and compare genocides and develop a working theory about the genocidal process.  There are many Centers for the Study of Genocide that are doing that vital work – in Australia, Brussels, Copenhagen, Jerusalem, Montreal, Memphis, Minneapolis, New Haven, Nottingham, and elsewhere.

But studying genocide is not enough.  Our next task should be to create the international institutions and political will to prevent it.  Four institutions are needed: centers for early warning, programs for conflict transformation, standing forces for rapid intervention, and international courts for effective punishment.

1.  The U.N. Security Council and key governments need strong, independent Early Warning systems to predict where and when ethnic conflict and genocide are going to occur, and to present policy options on prevention and intervention.  The Brahimi report made by the special commission on U.N. Peace-keeping makes just such a recommendation, and it should be implemented.  Selected country desk officers and top officials of the U.N. system now hold monthly “Framework for Coordination” to discuss current crises, but inadequate staffing prevents long-range strategic planning.  There is not a single person at the United Nations whose responsible for genocide early warning and prevention.  Who do you call? Ghostbusters.

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The <u><em>Opening of the Mouth </em></u>was the most important ceremony of the burial ritual for the Egyptians; it was performed on the mummy to ensure that the dead could say the necessary spells in the afterlife.

Explanation:

It's the last thing they do in the mummy before to bury it. This process was made to restore the main senses of the corpse - speech, sight, and hearing for the afterlife. The priest would touch the face of the coffin with special instruments. If the priest didn't do that, then it was impossible to go to the other world, once the person couldn't speak or hear.
