they do not hesitate to denounce the regime in sudan and i agree with them or the brutal military in burma and i agree with them. however, they remain silent and i don't agree with them when it comes to the cries of those dying in castro's jails because they seek freedom and democracy for their cuban nation. how much more must the cuban people suffer before the world acts against this cruel regime and its communist leaders? those who ignore the struggles of the cuban people serve as willing accomplices as their brutal oppressors. as one prisoner said in his jail cell, i quote, government, institutions, organizations and human beings in general have an obligation to promote and respect the fundamental rights and freedoms as well as ensure their recognition and universal and effective application. dr. ferrara continued, our recognition will be in every corner of the earth for the inherent dignity and inallenable rights for the dignity of the human family. today, let us renew our commitment to bring the light of freedom to those living in the darkness of oppression wherever that darkness is.

when there is genocide in darfur, systematic rape in congo, repression in burma -- there must be consequencescy -- but there must be consequences when those things fail. and the closer we stand together, the less likely we will be faced with the choice between armed intervention and complicity in oppression. this brings me to a second point -- the nature of the peace that we seek. for peace is not merely the absence of visible conflict. only a just peace based on the inherent rights and dignity of every individual can truly be lasting. it was this insight that drove drafters of the universal declaration of human rights after the second world war. in the wake of devastation, they recognized that if human rights are not protected, peace is a hollow promise. and yet too often, these words are ignored. for some countries, the failure to uphold human rights is excused by the false suggestion that these are somehow western principles, foreign to local cultures or stages of a nation's development. and within america, there has long been a tension between those who describe themselves as realists or

funk who was a navigator aboard a c-87 in 1983 that disappeared in the dangerous area known as the burma hump. he was returning from an airlift. these missions were certainly key to getting supplies to the coast and to help our specific theater eater operations. it is called the forgotten theater of world war ii, and i just want to make sure that these men are not forgotten now. so i was wondering, particularly since you made a comment about the plane that has been identified, what we can do to expedite the investigation of those planes that have gone down and to bring home the remains of people like 2nd lt. john funk? >> more funding and more staff. we need to have additional teams that are able to go out, not at the expense of another conflict, but rather to elevate all conflicts, all wars to the same level, the same priority, the same professionalism, and fund it so that you can have teams going out and recovering the world war ii, the korean loss. as well as north korea. we all acknowledge that. there are many american serviceman resting in the grounds of korea. they need to be broug
