惊天告密

我们的世界坏至如此，没有一个人是无辜的。力荐此片，真实改编而来。
人与制度的纠葛或许要贯穿整个人类文明的始终，没有绝对的公平，但必须有一个相互牵制的权利分配和制衡机制——即便它不完善。
有一颗还会流泪的心在，人性即不灭。
新闻是所有博弈的最后一条路，一个连新闻都没有的地方，所谓司法、正义、公平便是皇帝的新装。
那些为此新装沉默的人们，你怎么敢说自己是无辜的？
你怎么敢说你还有温暖的人性盛装在你灵魂深处？
你还以为在路边给乞丐抛几个零钱就能赎罪、丢叠钞票就代表的善良如初吗？
NO！或许你仅仅是需要借此行为装饰自己的优雅和高贵，而人性已然逃离于你言不由衷、裹得热乎发烫的躯壳之外，在瑟瑟寒风中濒临死亡。
而在中国这片神奇的土地上，它们作为一个复数已近濒临灭绝。
——《告密者》观后。

你只要21岁高中学历就能被录取
你能辨认出谁是塞族克族或波族吗 种族仇恨引发了这个国家的战争 我们来此是为了监督不是调查 有时让步也是这项工作的一部分
战争使我们这儿一半的男人死了 所以这些女孩被拐进来是为谁服务的 她们体内有硬币像狗一样被虐待
联合国是在奥斯维辛的尸体上建起来的 要维护尊严必须要做的是不使联合国强暴那些我们必须保护的人而遗臭万年 那些女孩就是军妓我们不会也不能受道德准则的摆布
面对着本土 维和人员 政府和政府官员巨大的利益关系网的革职和威胁 内政部官员的无间道使她取得了贩卖人口被逼卖淫的证据 凭借一些政府官员的良心 她成功了
许多维和人员被解职无人在本国遭到犯罪指控 嘉芙再也没能再国际组织中任职

你认为世间存在正义，公正么？

人与人最大的共通之处是什么？empathy. 当一个人痛苦，难过，挣扎，崩溃，愤怒，快乐的时候，另一个人是不是可以身临其境的感受到他人的感觉．人与人之间最大的联系，在我看来，不是种族，国家，文化，和其他背景，而是这种empathized feeling. 如果没有这种感觉，难以想象人类的未来可以有任何希望．

看一下human trafficking的数据吧

An estimated 2.5 million people are in forced labour (including sexual exploitation) at any given time as a result of trafficking.　1.4 million – 56% - are in Asia and the Pacific.

The majority of trafficking victims are between 18 and 24 years of age

95% of victims experienced physical or sexual violence during trafficking (based on data from selected European countries)

43% of victims are used for forced commercial sexual exploitation, of whom 98 per cent are women and girls．32% of victims are used for forced economic exploitation, of whom 56 per cent are women and girls

In 2006 there were only 5,808 prosecutions and 3,160 convictions throughout the world
This means that for every 800 people trafficked, only one person was convicted in 2006.

大约2000年，一个美国的女警察被派往波斯尼亚执行联合国维和任务．期间他发现当地有各种色情场所里的年轻妓女都是从西欧各国贩卖来的，有的是拐卖，有的是哄骗，有的是无家可归者，有de 是因为战乱离家者．当地警察，政府，联合国维和组织，美国政府的contractor都参与到这个流水线式的犯罪行为中．就在她搜查证据的时候，他的调查被美国政府高层正式禁止了．原因就是U.S contractor以每年几十亿的合同为代价逼迫美国政府施压，干预调查．在乌克兰，罗马尼亚，捷克，白俄罗斯，波斯尼亚等等西欧国家中，这些年轻的女孩以各种手段被卖往欧洲美洲其他国家．贩卖者每年可以从中收取百分之2000的利润．一个美国pimp可以从一个年轻妓女身上获得＄250,000的利润．在这个事件中，集团公司，美国政府，联合国，当地警察政府，都成为了human trafficking的同谋者，他们当中很多人甚至参与到买卖妇女的交易当中．其中一个年轻女孩被人从乌克兰拐卖到波斯尼亚，因为答应为这个女警察出庭作证，被当场杀害．第二天，一群冷酷的波斯尼亚警察在荒郊野外围着这么一个被发现的年轻尸体，抽着香烟，若无其事的闲聊着，象看死老鼠一样，悠闲的看着眼前这个美丽生命的驱壳．很多的年轻女孩都是这样，先被侮辱，轮奸，性虐待，摧毁她们的精神意志，然后成为赚钱的性工具，最后被杀害或者被性虐待致死．

她把所有内幕在英国公布于众，没有一个当地警察和联合国官员受到应有的起诉和惩罚．所有人只是被遣散了．那些参与其中的U.S contractor依然在伊拉克和阿富汗享受巨额合同带来的利润．这个女警察现今依然没有工作．．．．．此事并没有引起媒体的轩然大波．．．

此时的我，愤怒．我喜欢这种感觉．

人与人之间如果没有empathy, 很难想象人类可以有任何希望继续下去．当看到这个女孩被一群男人侮辱，性侵扰，迫害，轮奸，杀害，你也许会感到有一些不安．当听到那些声嘶力竭的叫喊，我很难想象一个普通人竟然还可以神色安宁的喝茶吃饭！但之后呢，因为我们感到无助，没有能力做任何事情，所以我们便尽量的告诉自己，这是世界另一头的事情么？这与我们的生活不相干，于是我们只能叹气么？于是乎，世界的这一头，你在乏味平庸的生活着，另一边，千百万的年轻生命在你无法想象的环境中摧残着．每一个人和你一样有感情的人，每天在经历着地狱一样的生活，即使我们什么都不能做，也没有任何借口去无视．

集团公司和大学有一个课程或者名词，叫"business ethics". 你真的认为世间存在一种概念，叫business ethics么？business 真的有ethics么？business的目的只有一个，就是股东的利润．它所做的所有都是为了最大的增加股东的利润．ethics成为他们一个最道德化的理由，来让那些消费者觉得他们花的钱心安理得．

你觉得世间有公正和正义么？在哪里？（don't tell me its in the LAW)
这个问题很让人思考，但我不感兴趣．因为我不需要寻找公正和正义．
不管这世间有没有公正和正义，我们都不需要去寻找，因为寻找意味着我们倚靠他人和外界．这些价值需要自己去创造．这样创造出来的公正和正义是属于自己的．这样的道德律是凌驾与法律之上的．自己的道德律可以对抗全世界．

为什么human trafficking成为现今成长最快，利润最大的犯罪行为？

为什么越来越多的人成为所谓的＂现代奴隶主＂？特别是男人（在中国，平均四个男人中，就有一个参与性行为买卖）

为什么媒体对于这些真正涉及多放利益的问题，拷问伦理的重大问题置之枉然？

如果世间没有公正和正义，你会怎么办？

你走的越远，走的越久，就会发现这世间本没有价值，人也变得没有意义．而为什么人要存在？存在的理由之一就是为了创造原本没有，但之后属于自己的价值．让这些价值成为共通价值，才有希望．

Talking With Kathryn Bolkovac About Her Experience as The Whistleblower

Posted: 08/16/11 07:48 PM ET

 

After seeing (and reviewing) The Whistleblower, I contacted Kathryn Bolkovac, whose story is the basis of the movie, and interviewed her. Her answers speak for themselves, but also give such a sense of her persona, grit and determination.

FOSTER: You were faced with a situation where the people you worked with were engaged in something very shocking. Do you have any insight as to how or why they got involved with trafficking?

I really do not think there is clear cut answer for this. Everyone is an individual and is accountable to their individual behavior and potential illegal actions they committed and continue to commit in current missions. I think most people are truly just plain complicit in their thinking and tend to not get involved or look the other way to avoid any form of accountability, especially if they think that something does not directly affect them for their position. Then there is the group of people who can easily be swayed to join in on a pack mentality, who are morally and mentally weak or ignorant. When conditions are right as they have been and still are in many overseas missions around the world, or if they think they will not be caught or judged then it is easy for them to engage in illegal and corrupt behavior. They try to justify and minimize their actions. Finally, there are individuals who are just plain evil and corrupt, they see the money making potential of preying on the helpless and needy, and exploit every opportunity they can to make a buck, especially in an industry that involves sex. They are very good at dehumanizing, denial, and lying about what is going on.

FOSTER: What do you think needs to be done to address the trafficking issue? What can government do?

The trafficking issue at large is too complex to tackle with sweeping reform. There are so many different types of human trafficking each with different dynamics of funding the corruption. Obviously, many adults choose to be trafficked... or illegally transported across many borders to escape horrendous conditions in their own countries. These issues cannot be convoluted with organized criminal syndicates who are providing services to internationals all over the world, in the form of trafficking for forced prostitution. They are involved in the recruitment, abuse, desensitization, and sale of human flesh, into international missions as sex workers. This is what I want to discuss and what I think we can make a huge impact on based on my experiences as a former law enforcement officer, former UN employee, former representative of our U.S. government overseas, and as a former employee of one of the largest private government contractors in the world DynCorp.

FOSTER: What can our government do?

First, in the short term, the United States needs to take a serious look at why we are willing to allow private companies to engage in the profession of law enforcement. Government contractors are a needed and viable means to get many logistical and re-construction efforts accomplished. They are not a viable means for a protection force or as a mechanism for the use in training law enforcement officers in emerging democracies. Law enforcement is not a business. Policing is a calling. Does anyone really believe that private corporations are in this policing and operational mission business for anything but the money? We need to set an example with our own federal police selection units, perhaps via the Department of Justice as an example, why can we not recruit and most importantly train our own community police officers before we send them into these missions? My book accurately describes the pathetic training offered by the private company who sent me overseas, which I am sure was heavily subsidized with my tax dollars. It was a disgrace; none of us had even the minimum knowledge or idea of what we were supposed to be doing once we got into Bosnia.

If we are to continue to send "rent a cops " overseas with inadequate knowledge and inadequate protections from corrupt private companies, some of whom had serious questionable policing backgrounds we might want to stop and think about how this damages our reputation and our goals. The private company who fired me had free reign to treat me however they saw fit, no one was in authority to stop them. They were exempt from all U.S. government accountability and have never been held accountable for what they did to me to this day. How has this changed? It has not.

Second, get the Civilian Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act (CEJA) out of committee and get it passed. It has been more than 12 years overdue. [NOTE: CEJA would allow the U.S. Justice Department to prosecute government contractors and employees for certain crimes committed overseas. It would complement the Military Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act (MEJA), which provides similar criminal jurisdiction over Department of Defense employees and contractors but does not clearly apply to U.S. contractors working overseas for other federal agencies.]

Third, make government contractors accountable for their employee actions, by putting a clause in their contracts that require them to facilitate and allow oversight of both external and internal investigations by outside government agencies, when probable cause exists that employees are suspected, or implicated in criminal offenses. They must cooperate in the facilitation of prosecutions. They can no longer just fire people, and hope the problem goes away, which automatically curtails any further investigation.

Fourth, set examples by having the means available to prosecute and convict with meaningful sentences.

FOSTER: What can individuals do?

Learn, read, report, and stop burying your heads in the sand. Many of the people involved in these crimes could be your next door neighbor.

Get local law enforcement initiatives started, and ask your police chiefs this question. What kind of training is being offered to your new recruits and officers on the streets to recognize and investigate all forms of human trafficking?

Do you think a local police chief in the hills of Northern New Mexico, or in the farming community of southern Illinois, is even going to know what we are talking about? Does the local hotel have young female Hispanics working in the housekeeping department? They do not speak English, they have no documents, does he know what wage they are being paid and in what form? Think about it. I have been in these places have you?

 FOSTER: Many of the women and girls who are trafficked are promised jobs that don't materialize. What do you think would be effective to get the word out to them so that fewer of them fall prey to these types of promises?

The only effect we can have on this is to stop the demand.

FOSTER: How did you sustain yourself?

Continued faith in our justice system, lots of hard workouts and sweat, many tears and my husband would make me a strong gin tonic with lots of lemon and ice once in a while.

一名前联合国工作人员透露 国际警察竟是妓院常客
http://www.sina.com.cn 2001年06月15日19:09 北京晚报
　　近日，联合国一名被解雇的国际警察工作队成员向外界披露，部署在波黑的联合国国际警察部队(IPTF)官员本应该恪尽职守，为社会树立典范，却率先违法逛妓院。事件公布后，引起国际关注。

　　博尔科娃被激怒了

　　凯瑟琳·博尔科娃原本是美国内布拉斯加州一名资深警官。两年前，她辞去工作，加入联合国国际警察工作队，并被派往波黑地区调查当地的地下卖淫业。

　　随着工作的深入，博尔科娃开始接触到一些资料，得知她的一些联合国同事竟是这些卖淫妇女的常客，有些甚至卷得更深。她收集到越来越多这方面的资料，也就更加心寒。她在一份报告中讲述了一些外籍军官的所作所为：为被拐卖的卖淫妇女制造假证件，协助她们通过边境检查站入境以及在警察部队的突袭检查前向非法俱乐部的老板通风报信等。

　　去年年初，博尔科娃被降职。同年4月，她被解雇，解聘书上列出的理由是有人控告她伪造工作时间卡。博尔科娃被激怒了，她说，上面根本不想知道事情的真相，他们宁愿对这些证据充耳不闻，视而不见。

　　博尔科娃的故事并不是一个偶然事件。戴维·兰姆在过去两年间曾任联合国人权委员会调查员，在波斯尼亚中部地区进行工作。他说，在工作期间，他与同事定期向上级递交部分国际驻员在波黑犯下不良行径的证据，但得到的却是“不要再深入调查下去”的警告。

　　逛妓院至多被解雇

　　联合国有关官员表示，多数IPTF成员都很好的完成了自己的使命，树立了值得效仿的榜样，但同时也不得不承认，在2000名警察部队中曾有20多人因犯有从收受贿赂到不恰当性行为等过错被解雇。

　　美国国务院发言人查尔斯·亨特承认，在美籍警察工作队成员中就“偶有纪律问题发生”，但是事情通常能得到“迅速、合理并且恰当”的解决。另有美国高级官员承认，美在挑选和训练派驻波黑警察的工作中存在严重问题，因为美国务院把这项工作交给得克萨斯州的一家私人公司经办，这家公司每年可得到美国政府1500万美元的资金。

　　驻波黑的国际警察都享有外交豁免权，对于那些犯罪的国际警察，除非他们本国政府放弃豁免权，否则联合国能够给予他们的最重处罚只不过是将他们遣送回国。

　　国际警察形象何在

　　去年11月，波黑警察在IPTF的协助下，扫荡了波斯尼亚北部一个城镇的三个夜总会，共抓获33名卖淫妇女，其中包括只有14岁的小女孩。第二天，夜总会老板向外界宣称，IPTF此前曾向他索取1万美元保护费遭到拒绝，IPTF恼羞成怒，才发动了这次袭击。

　　卖淫在波黑属非法行为。波黑目前共有两万多名北约维和部队和数千名各种国际援助机构与工作小组成员，卖淫业的繁荣也许与此不无关系。据联合国有关统计数字，各种夜总会和妓院的顾客中有30%是外国人。

　　这些卖淫的妇女来自一些东欧国家。她们抱着做女招待或保姆的幻想来到波黑，但随后被交到妓院老板手里，护照被没收，只好被迫进行性交易。

去年加拿大和德国合拍了一部 The Whistleblower。讲波黑地区妇女被贩卖和遭受性暴力问题。实际上这些贩卖和暴力的活动却由美国官方以及与美政府合作的私人公司背后操作。

其实影片最后表达的还是这场抗争以失败告终，这个世界还是男权的社会。尽管有那么一些人被开除了，尽管katie最后把证据拿出来公布于众了，不要告诉我在波黑那些地方女孩们已经不再饱受欺凌。

有战争的地方就有军队，有军队的地方就需要军妓。可是，有哪一些人自愿来作军妓的，于是产生了贩卖和暴力。美国一向以维护世界和平为幌子践踏他国主权，把军队开到那里，产生直接的种族拼杀，衍生出各种复杂的社会问题。

由真实事件改编的好片子， 蕾切尔·薇兹 和 莫妮卡·贝鲁奇两大美女的演出，也透露了她们不只是利用身体来博得演出的机会，证明她们也在思考作为有影响力的女性应该传播的信息和价值应该是什么。

隐藏在世界某些角落的晦垢，只有用作为女性的眼能够看到。
