Dear Friends,
Following some discussions (sometimes a little heated) on a couple of
events that had taken place, the subject of abuse was raised in respect
to historical events that were causing ongoing events that could really
be described as abuse. As you will see from the following reprint of
the defining comments of it, there are basically two types, which some
will possibly argue are one and the same.
I have included the complete defining document for you to read and comments will be most welcome.

The abuse being referred to here is that relating to ongoing
harassment and abuse because of historical events that have occurred.
The two major aspects of this are the pursuit of war crimes against men
and women who, reportedly, committed offences against people during
conflict, and the ongoing continuation of abuse that historically occurred that may be of
a racial or other origin.
WAR CRIME: This category has become the ongoing method of abuse by
groups of people against individuals (usually) who may have committed a
criminal act against a person or persons during a time of conflict.
While the action that is being muted is not approved, the relentless
pursuit if this form of abuse by individuals and groups upon
individuals who may have committed these acts is, in fact, worse than
the original crime itself. Whilst the bringing of leaders to justice for
such crimes may be justified, the pursuit of individuals who, at the
time, were under orders, can only be described as abuse because, in
most cases, these people would have had no real choice in the matter
and, depending upon the individual circumstances, may have actually
felt that they were doing the right thing because of disinformation
they were told. Acts that occurred over 60 years ago cannot be
genuinely pursued as who, in all honesty, would truthfully remember all of the
details.
ONGOING HISTORICAL: This is the continuation of abuse that occurred
historically through some event (no matter what the origin) that is
kept alive through hatred, lies and disinformation. While much of this
abuse can be racially motivated, that is certainly not the only root
derivative of the ongoing abuse.
