If it is done properly,

The west prides itself on its open democratic society,

but if openness and democracy are what we value,

then we need to export those values

to countries that desperately need them.

We will supply arms to anybody.

Where is our support for those men and women

who are trying to modernise their countries

- to bring books and education and emancipation

to people who live in fear of being flogged or killed?

The truth is that we would rather sell arms

and trade oil and cheap goods with the bosses

than help the ordinary people who need us.

I'm not talking charity.

I mean a whole new approach

to how we deal with the third world.

We could start by not exploiting them.

We could give up the myth that the west is the good guy.

We could refuse foreign policy deliberately aimed

at manipulating other countries for our own ends.

We could learn to forgive.

That might mean learning to say our prayers...

You need not believe in God to believe in prayer.

Which of us should not ask for forgiveness?

Which of us should not ask for the strength

to forgive others?

Forgive but don't forget:
There are only three possible endings to any story:
revenge, tragedy, forgiveness. We need to forgive,
