Yesterday's news - For Real -------


A non-profit group led by an American attorney is trying to sue an American Company for abuses to forced workers in another poor country of the world. The U.S. company was contracting with this country's military for workers on the project. The military beat the wives of the workers who ran off and is known for various other human right violations. Of course the company claims it can not be held responsible for the abuses of another's countries military and even claims to have had no knowledge. Other's believe that they did in fact have knowledge. I would be interested in knowing how you feel the American company should or should not be held accountable? I left out the Country and the Company names specifically, because the message is generic and is probably being replayed over and over again elsewhere........
