Re: [nukkad] The poor are less human--Children as camel jockeys

["Ravi Menon" <>]

That is only half the story. What usually does not make it to the
press is that the children are whipped before the race so that they
start screaming which is what actually makes the camel run.
Qatar has over the last couple of years made it compulsory to use robo-jockeys.
How well it is implemented I have no idea.

I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote 
peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that 
one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have 
it. -Dwight D. Eisenhower, U.S. general and 34th president (1890-1969)
