We can't continue with a justice of vengeance. Peace will require us to accept a certain degree of impunity; it's inevitable.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Reconciliation should be accompanied by justice, otherwise it will not last. While we all hope for peace it shouldn't be peace at any cost but peace based on principle, on justice.
The United States has the burden to lead for peace. And not just peace - we need peace with justice, a much harder goal.
Vengeance is not the point; change is. But the trouble is that in most people's minds the thought of victory and the thought of punishing the enemy coincide.
There really can be no peace without justice. There can be no justice without truth. And there can be no truth, unless someone rises up to tell you the truth.
Peace without justice is tyranny.
If we do not maintain justice, justice will not maintain us.
May we not succumb to thoughts of violence and revenge today, but rather to thoughts of mercy and compassion. We are to love our enemies that they might be returned to their right minds.
I think the time has come for the United States to do even-handed justice.
I am a strong believer that without justice, there is no peace. No lasting peace, anyway.
In order to establish peace, you must have fair justice for everyone.
