On 10th December 1948, The General Assembly of the United Nations adopted and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Article 3 of UDHR says, "everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person" and Article 5 says,-"no one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
These two article clearly says about the right of a human being, which is regularly everyday diminishing in West Asia and North Africa countries like Libya,Syria,Egypt,Yemen,Oman,Baharain,Algeria and Tunisia.
The violation of Human Rights in Arab World is a headache for the whole world. From one end of the Arab World to the other, most of the Arab countries are ruled by strongmen and despots. The Authoritarian rulers and the dictatorship of the government leaves the common people in a danger zone of human rights violation.
The Arab World was teeming with Mohamed Bouazizis. Little less than a month later, the order of the despot was twisting in the wind. Bouazizis, a young Tunisian vegetable seller in the hardscrabble provincial town of Sidi Bouzid, set himself on fire after his cart was confiscated and a headstrong Policewoman slapped him across the face in broad day light. This University Graduate could not bear it and self-ablazed his life. It was the beginning of revolution against the tyranny ruler Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and against unemployment, political pluralism censorship on media. Arab World Revolution started from here only.
Egypt was the second to adopt the Tunisian way of protesting, more than fifteen days of agitation against the Hosni Mubarak Govt., it moved away from the Portfolio no doubt, but still they are in searching for a appropriate Govt. At the time of agitation, the supporters of Mubarak had started hitting the people mercilessly; the common peoples were died like insects, mosquitoes. Human Rights violation increased day by day.
Like that, Libyan President Muammar Quadhafi extremely violating the Human Rights. He and his sons were once declared against Libyans that,"either I rule you or I kill you". In a twenty first century, civilized world,it is the worst word ever spoken by a president.
The revolutionists are not thinking about their pain, they are marching towards Tripoli to capture the nation's capital and to dethrone the president.
Libyan Ambassador to the UN Mohamed Shalgam broke down into tears and called for a "courageous resolution" from the Security council to save Libya.
Eight Arab states practiced torture and extrajudicial detention. And still,the silence held. Bouazizi and his deed of despair brought a people to a reckoning with its maladies.
In Baharain, protesters started agitation at Pearl Square in the capital city Manama. The crown prince Salman bin Hamad al-Khalifa ordered to the Military force to tame the demonstrators in strong hand. The common peoples were beaten mercilessly.
According to Article 20 of Universal Declaration of Human Rights, "Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and".But this laws are openly violated by the rulers of Arab World. The military persons are not giving chance for an association or any other assembly.
Now Oman and Yemen, Syria are in red corridor. These countries are raged against their Govt. The protesters are accepting one day's pain or few days pain of getting Lathi charge, bullet firing and death than 60 years of tyranny and inter-burning with the violation of Human rights in their own land.
The world is looking towards Arab World. United Nations Council keenly observing the situation, if the tyrants continue this practice, the world will take the action against them.Because Humanity is the best policy in the world.We need peace, nor bloodshed.
