Lady Justice opus 323

Lady Justice stands before us, blindfolded,
And holding up her scales of Rightful Balance.
So, to give a verdict, how does she judge:
The taking of territory and killing to maintain a presence
Occurring, perhaps for the thousands of years of human history;
The raping of the other's women and girls to humiliate and anger;
To conquer in the name of a religion which is always 'right and true';
To initiate genocide to rid the undesirable other;
To maintain schools and centers of propaganda to influence minds;
To block commerce in order to starve the other into submission;
To threaten with deadly weapons to cause inaction of the 'rightful other';
And on to whatever action of injustice the human mind might concoct.
