An Official Apology



On the BBC News website today I read about the Amnesty International Report that has just been published. The headline from it is:

Sixty years of human rights failure – governments must apologize and act now!!!!

On December 10th of this year, it will be the 60 years anniversary of the human rights declaration. What I found quite interesting is this following statement:

"It says world leaders should apologise for 60 years of human rights failures since the UN adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948."

Can you imagine the world leaders apologising to us for 60 year of human rights failures??? I think it would be an amazing sight. Imagine, putting Aljazeera on to find ALL the world leaders one after another coming up to the microphone and saying sorry in their own language to their own people.

It seriously would be a sight to remember!
