That's the thing ain't it. It's HISTORY. As in, 'in the past'. I think it is not only right, but our duty to do what we can to point out abuses that are happening NOW. Yes, we've had our transgressions, but that does not mean we should turn a blind eye when such things continue to happen elsewhere in the world.
