"It is our duty to ensure that these rights are a living reality --
that they are known, understood and enjoyed by everyone, everywhere. It is often
those who most need their human rights protected, who also need to be informed
that the Declaration exists -- and that it exists for them." (United Nations
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon)

Human
Rights (Ireland)Monday December 31, 2007 12:06 by W.
Finnerty. Human Rights Day 2007
(December 10th 2007) marked the start of a year-long commemoration of the
60th anniversary of the
United Nations Universal Declaration of Human
Rights.
"It is our duty to ensure that these rights are a
living reality -- that they are known, understood and enjoyed by everyone,
everywhere. It is often those who most need their human rights protected, who
also need to be informed that the Declaration exists -- and that it exists for
them." (United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon)
"The
Declaration belongs to each and every one of us – read it, learn it, promote it
and claim it as your own." The above excerpts
have been taken from the following
United Nations location:
http://www.un.org/events/humanrights/2007/
.
A new web site, named
"Human Rights
(Ireland)", which hopefully will grow in size during this anniversary year,
has been opened recently to celebrate and to participate in the year-long
commemoration of the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights.
The address of this new web site is:
http://humanrightsireland.com
.
EPILOGUE: Earlier today
RTE (State Broadcaster) reported that "
the Archbishop of Dublin
(Dr John Neill) has warned that the
nation is being sucked into a
society that has lost its way." (For the full text of Dr Neill's
statement please see
http://www.rte.ie/news/2007/1231/newyear.html
.)
Could it be I wonder, that some careful consideration of
basic human rights principles, and
basic human rights law, might
help our nation find its way back out of the mess (as some see
it)?
It might be worth a try - and what have we (as a nation)
got to lose by such
efforts?

=====================
Please note I have
STILL not received
ANY reply from
Chief
Justice Murray (or from
ANY of his senior lawyer
colleagues) to the letter I sent to him through the
registered
post on
August 28th 2007. This ongoing failure to provide me
with a reply is:
1) a source of growing mental
TORTURE
for me,
2) aggravates and adds to the
C-PTSD medical condition I
suffer from, and
3) provides yet more
VERY
WORRYING evidence (from my viewpoint) of rampant and
completely out-of-control corruption at the very
TOP of the Republic of
Ireland's legal profession: and which now appears
IMPOSSIBLE TO DEAL WITH BY ANY REASONABLE
MEANS . A copy of the letter in
question to Chief Justice Murray can be viewed at the following address:

future reference purposes a copy of this e-mail will later today be
