Open Letter to Mr Clinton; Africa does not need your hypocrisies



Ex-President Bill Clinton Supports Compulsory Testing for AIDS

 


Dear Mr. Clinton,



Let me start by saying I am someone who is passionate about the providing relevant solutions to the tragedy caused by HIV, Human Rights, privacy, and bringing to justice the perpetrators of racial discrimination.



Mr. Clinton if you could put a millionth of the passion you into the Monica Lewinsky affair (and also the deception) to the tragedy caused by HIV Africa you should humbly lead by example not by hypocrisy. Here's why;



1. If you really believe in what you say why don't you demonstrate with successfully fighting for USA legislation requiring all African Americans and gays to undergo mandatory periodic HIV testing. You don't want to wait till the figures are like that for Sub-Saharan Africa?
2. Can imposing on one endangered race survival measures take precedence over privacy/constitutional rights/human rights? (There usually is an exclusion clause somewhere!)
3. Is it racism/discrimination when mandatory HIV testing is
coerced/forced unto one continent/country/race for that group's own good and survival? (there are coercision alternatives ranging from free scholarships, bribes free-trade sweetners or threats like isolation?)

4. Do you see see any referendums on the universality of mandatory HIV testing taking place any place or time soon? (now thats a challenge; its easier to bribe 10-20 people not millions?)

5. In the case of an emergence or crisis like HIV is moving towards, do you see democracy or autocray being a more effective?

6. Is it no longer relevant for charity to begin at home, or leadership to be by example?

7. The poor HIV-ravaged African countries have to do like the foriegn charities/benefactors preach not what these outsiders practice back home?
