Victims of Terror are the peace messengers
The idea of the peace has been a concern for many scholars and politicians from the very long ago which led to creation of a global structure by the name of United Nations in the contemporary world for problem solving and conflict resolution with dialogue and based on international law.
Nowadays, centuries after that thought and nuances in the ideal of peace, humanity has the same concerns from the beginning and is confused and the human rights are under perpetual and brutal attacks from the global evil from Africa to Europe and Asia and especially in Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Afghanistan and Pakistan. In this situation, the word of peace seems to be an arbitrary thing not a real or accessible thing in human society.
Terrorism is the big threat and challenge to the global peace in todays and this devastating phenomenon is a tool for imperialists and put the peace of human society in danger of perpetual brutality and makes real peace inaccessible. The international essays in confronting this global challenge have been futile and it seems that we are not cable of peace building.
Democracy, development and justice are prerequisites in creating sustainable peace around the world and they are parts of governing the rationality and are complementary in the process. They can bring the collective decision instead of despotism and discrimination for human society. In this utopia, there will be nothing for disturbing the others and human values and dignity are appreciated.
victims of terrorism are the most genuine voice and the highest price in tribute of human morality and dignity, and they have tributed the human values by sacrificing their souls, security and health and by accepting the very harsh things.
the message of the victims is the invitation to abstaining from violence and creating the sustainable peace. This invitation tries to weaken the bases of violence and extremism in the human society by enhancing the public awareness about the consequences of the organization of terrorism.
Association for Defending Victims of Terrorism appreciates these efforts in conflict resolution and creating a world without evils, and warns that Sustainable peace is not accessible without paying attention to the reality of the organization of terrorism and its destructive function and without it we will be reciting peace in our international sessions and statements and programs.
We call all the peace and human rights activists, scholars and politicians to pay attention to the protection of victims of terrorism in their programs and try to do so in every situation.
