惊天告密

      刚刚看完告密者，是由木乃伊女主演的，看完很郁闷。真的有点像口语老师Paul说的，人长大了，就喜欢看深刻的电影了 。

       故事的主题是以波黑内战，联合国维和部队人员参与贩卖人口，最后英雄女主角拯救局面的故事情节演的。刚开始的女主，就是一心为着钱去的。当上级军官宣扬着正义和平的时候，女主没有多少投入，反而是周围的男队友们很亢奋。

        但是随着剥茧抽丝的叙事过程，事实浮出了水面，之所以在这样一个战争国度，能有这样多的酒吧生存下来，服务的不是本国的男士，而是维和部队的军官。 收容所的老奶奶说:"战争让我们国家的男人都死了一半，你说这些女孩是为谁服务的！“说的是那么的平静，但是我的内心却很波澜。

     女主在剧中说了这样的话，她说，

-- 以前在家里，我们分局有25个人，我了解他们每一个人，知道他们的一切，他们的家人。

--原本我以为是和一群精英来到这里工作，现在我甚至都不知道他们到底是谁？！

       西方社会一直认为，人之初，性本恶，原来我不这么认为，近些年我接触的事情使我慢慢深刻地理解了这句话的内涵。在西方这样一个发达，法律体制健全的社会里，每个人在这样的体系中生活，没有机会，也没有理由让你做出出乎意料的行为，至少对大部分人是这样的。加之开明的价值观和先进的的城市化进程使得很多东西不会引起恐慌和围观。但是即使这样绅士和文明的人类被放逐到萨拉热窝这样的动荡地带，没有法治，种族间斗殴，社会信仰的不健全。人性中那种龌龊，极端，邪恶的念头就会被只能各种松弛的约束带释放出来，原来我们不敢说的敢说了，原来我们不敢做的敢做了。甚至变本加厉，异常极端，电影中出现的很多情节让你感觉仿佛不是去酒吧找乐子，更像是对很多之前禁忌的猎奇，而无辜的女孩就成为其中的玩偶，他们的痛苦就像是反应的结果，出现才是正常的，才够满足他们的好奇。

       经历了千辛万苦，想救出的女孩终究还是死了，当做了杀鸡儆猴中的鸡，看着挺心酸，但是我觉得确实最好的结局。她所遭受的痛苦，是那种死亡可以替代的，死亡还是平静的，折磨却没有止境。可能，我是说可能，拯救出的她们没有技能，没有能力，或许还有很多又会做回老本行，但是，那种存在的尊严俨然可以被称之为人！！！这很重要~~~

首先这部电影在pptv的蓝光视频里，这样你们就可以容易找到。

这部电影是真人真事。

关于剧情，辗转反侧的内容，让眼睛和大脑不停的运作，本来以为是光明前的黑暗，原来是越来越琢磨不透的阴森。


然后让我们看看作为世界联合国，他们主要负责的事项, 我简单的摘要了一下 “联合国、各方案和基金以及专门机构组成“联合国系统”。作为联合国组织的大家庭，联合国执行涉及我们每个人方方面面的多种任务。这些任务既包括安全理事会为应对某一争端决定派遣维持和平行动，也包括制定航空安全和通信兼容性的标准； 既包括向自然灾害受害者迅速调运紧急用品，也包括协调对付艾滋病流行的工作；既包括帮助各国举行自由公正选举，也包括为较穷国家基础设施发展争取低息贷款提供担保。归根结底，联合国的工作是要创造一个更健康、更稳定的世界，增进我们人人享有的机会和正义（见www.unsystem.org）”


剧中的女主角就是为了完成这些事情然后去不同国家帮助他人的其中一只小蚂蚁，不出所料的是，一群男人的里边，只有2个女人在做这样的事情，没有女生愿意做这样的工作，一年的很多时间飞来飞去，每天穿着制服，当女主角问她另外的一个女同事为什么做这个，那个女孩说，因为不需要大学毕业成绩，听说还能挣很多钱。

电影是讲人口贩卖的，一个多少年来一直存在的问题，看到影片中那些年轻的女孩被泯灭人性的欺凌，手无寸铁的她们让我揪心，她一个联合国中的一个小蚂蚁，想要拯救这些女孩们，重重的阻碍，不光使她丢掉了工作，还造成了其中一个女孩子的死亡。女人在那里，或者说在很多地方是不被看重的，丈夫的打虐，其他男人的不尊重，等等。

现在我的心情还是久久不能平静，无法平静下来不光是看到一部真人真事的电影，而且在电影最后 这个女人最后也没有能回到联合国上班，为什么一个人只是想伸张正义，努力的用自己的真心去工作，却那样难？

她一直没有哭，直到她看着其中被拐卖一个女孩，她伸出手对那个女孩说“ 别怕，你就只要说你想离开，你是安全的。” 她不停的说，泪也不停的落下来。女孩最后哭着说“no“ 她颤抖着躲到了那个连狗都不会住的房间里。

到底真相是什么，电影为我们留下了问号。




看到这些，我们应该做什么？




最后是一些电影的台词。

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.

这片子是今年第一次看片后有去查资料去翻历史的冲动的片子，根据真实故事改编往往都是些有着撼动能力的片子。今天一直在找有没有类似的片子，没有，真没有，后来想想这也是应该的，一，历史是不容复制的；二，政治丑闻不是那么随随便便可以浮出于众。更可见它的难得。
为何会这样？
打着人道主义的口号，做着人性泯灭的事；作为维持秩序正义的人，做着游走于法律之下的事情。一直认为任何一件事的发生归根究底都会有一个根本原因的诱使，同样像他们也一样，原因就是这些人都有一个保护伞------外交豁免权。没有法律的制裁以及监督，残暴一览无遗，当同伙壮大，这种现象根本是无法想象的。就像战后的波黑。
或许会觉得前半段有些冗长，但是看后回想起来，几乎每一句台词，在片后的对比都是一只强力拳，足以打碎那些虚伪的正义。
关于制度
波黑是一个多名族国家，存在强烈的宗教间矛盾，92年三个民族围绕波黑前途和领土划分等问题开战。战后联合国派遣维和部队来重建，但是这却为他们带来了新一轮的灾难。看电影里为了可以保护那两个女孩凯瑟琳算是恳求那个部门的女同事，但是她只会冰冷地重复制度、规矩。可是他们呢？凌驾于制度之上，游走于法律之下，还不如强盗。
关于人口贩卖
07年李扬拍《盲山》，在国际上大受欢迎，可在Z国却被打入禁片的冷宫，一不露肉，二不暴力，但却被禁，因为揭露了一个残酷的现状----人口贩卖。看片时我也在假想如果我也是个被贩卖去的人怎么办？看不到明天，活着和死了差不多，估计八成选择咬舌自尽，赶紧投胎。“每一天都会有女孩被贩卖”，
关于媒体
媒体的本质，永远是一个向霸权献媚、为强盗歌颂、毫无道德可言毫无廉耻之心的妓女本质。 这是大众的普遍认知。不过片中的这个真相有幸可以公之于众，很庆幸它越过了美国，是靠BBC以另一种方式报道了出来，BBC和此事没有直接的利益冲突。作为媒体的良知从始至终都是个模棱两可的问题，如果太敢说真话，最终嘴是会被封住的。即使看过这部片，这个看法我还是不会改变。
关于最后
最后想说，Z国永远不会拍这种片子，甚至播出

豁免权（immunity）不是免罪权（impunity），联合国是在奥斯维辛集中营的尸骨上建立起来的，要维护尊严必须要做的是不使联合国因强暴那些我们必须保护的人而遗臭万年。
这些事情老实讲在天朝每天都有发生，法律不能惩治恶棍歹徒，反而成为了好人的枷锁，所以我一直认为如果有一天真的司法效率和能力堕落到谷底，那么私力救济就是义务。

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。

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。
